Do you like "Techno" music?

[Archae]

I do, some.

I'm listening to the Techno re-make of "Popcorn" right now.
Good tune.

[JackBeck]

1. I'm more into electronica and drum & bass.

Which I guess falls under the techno umbrella.

[Archae]

2. Some of electronica is pretty good too.

[JackBeck]

5. There's this one song that I've been hearing recently

and haven't caught the artist.

It samples the "Knight Rider" theme song and I think it's called "Cars".

[sammythecat]

24. That might be Fat Boy Slim. I think he did the theme

He did a tune called "The Joker" in the movie "Babel" that I'd like to get.

[JackBeck]

28. That could be.

I saw him live once. The show was fantastic, but the crowd was very disappointing. Everyone was into it, but people were way too trashed on all sorts of things.

[SteppingRazor]

9. Technically, techno falls under the electronica umbrella...

not the other way around. Just sayin'. :P

[JackBeck]

11. Thanks.

I remember when everything all of a sudden got split up. Thanks for the help.

[meegbear]

3. But I thought no one listens to techno ...

you mean that spry little homophobe Eminem lied?

[Archae]

4. No one listens to Eminem...

;-)

[Burma Jones]

6. yes, it is good for the Coitus

make the bump thacka bump thacka bump thacka bump brrrrrrrrrrr thump

like this:

[SteppingRazor]

7. Depends who's spinnin'

I tend to like hard house for all my raver needs, and I like a lot of drum 'n' bass as well. Can't stand big beat or funky breaks.

[JackBeck]

10. Do you have XM?

There's a great station that plays good mixes from time to time. DJ Fiddler's show Thump Funk is my favorite. Great music to work out with.

12. I don't, alas...

My new favorite workout music is actually London Calling by The Clash. I know that sounds kinda counter-intuitive, but that album at full volume on my iPod seems to have a sort of regenerative effect on me. I can do an elliptical machine forever, as long as I've got the Clash.

[seemunkee]

8. Dark ambient, noise and and older electronica

[Starbucks Anarchist]

13. One of the few genres I can't stand.

Assuming you're talking "club" techno.

If you mean stuff like Chemical Brothers, I'm actually okay with that.

[Dr Fate]

14. Shouldnt the word "music" be the one you put in quotes?

Just kidding- to each his own. I respect anyone who gets into music- even if it's not my favortie kind.

I'm not a fan, but I must admit, the new Moby LP that samples the old Gospel/Southern field recordings is pretty darn cool.

[sniffa]

15. depends on the mood

once the roLLs kick in, i Love it!!

[JackBeck]

16. My scalp just tingled.

[sniffa]

17. i think i Love you

:loveya:

[JackBeck]

22. ...

:loveya: :hug:

[Jamastiene]

18. Some I do like and some I don't.

I'd say it's not my most favorite, but not my least either.

[mainegreen]

19. YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!11!

A little too much really. It has eaten up more of my budget than I'd care to admit, so lately I've been exploring the free side of techno.

I presume you're listing to the Aphex Twin Popcorn remix. It's really rather good.

[idgiehkt]

20. I like what I think is techno

meaning I don't know the difference between techno and electronica and trance and yada yada and if I post the ones I like I'm liable to commit some huge gaffe and get called lame and kicked out of this thread...but anyway for my purposes here are a couple I like

Darude - Sandstorm

Spider Jerusalem turned me onto this

Atom Bomb - Fluke
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqBK5kA1b_k

I love this! :bounce:

[Ariana Celeste]

21. I'm relatively new to techno and electronica

I listen to a lot of VNV Nation, Aphex Twin, Juno Reactor, Lords of Acid. A few others. Recently got into Morcheeba.

[xchrom]

23. i'm a little on the old school side -- ambient house and trip.

[sammythecat]

25. Yep

When I listen to internet radio it's often ambient, techno, house, and sometimes space. I never got to hear this stuff till 2000 when I got broadband. :)

[Zavulon]

26. No, not even a little bit.

If I ever wind up in Gitmo, playing loud (or even audible) techno would make me crack like a walnut.

[SPKrazy]

27. Electronica and Trip Hop

the Bristol sound

:shrug:

[JackBeck]

29. Now we're talkin'.

:thumbsup:

[SPKrazy]

31. yeah!

like portishead in particular!

[supernova]

30. Yes! Yes!

I love it to exercise to or do housework to. They hypnotic quality of it really lifts my mood and keeps me going.

I also discovered the last couple of years that downtempo electronica is good to work at my desk to on the job. not too laid back and not too intrusive on my concentration.

So yea, count me a fan.

I really like the Blade soundtracks also.

[Bullwinkle925]

32. Nope - MoTown for me!

I need a melody with lyrics.
