Someone fill me in on the different types of techno

IronFist · 07-19-2004

Ok I know "techno" is kind of a broad category. What's the difference between trance and euro and progressive etc.

And if you wanna name some songs I can download to hear the difference that would be cool.

Cuz some techno I think is really awesome, but some kinda sucks, so I want to know what to be able to tell people I like.

Thanks.

I am too tired to explain it now. But I might later. The link to DI is a good site. I am a techno head at heart, but last night was rough.
Totally off topic of this post....Nice avatar Arcan3

chiming in a little late but here's a site with a neat little feature

http://www.moonshine.com/

In the header of the main body of the page, you'll see several types of techno genres. just mouse-over each one and it'll give you a sample of it.

Like with all music, if you're not open minded then you'll jump back and turn away. I got into dance music, which led to techno, and now i pretty much like everything out there. even Gabber at times.

Yeah, that Ishkur's guide to electronic music is a great place to learn about all the different kinds of electronic music....but he makes fun of just about every style...I guess you have to know to understand some of what he says.

There are soooo many different kinds of electronic music. The main genres would be house, breaks, jungle/DnB, trance, techno (yes there is a genre called techno), progressive, and hardcore. Now within each style, there are like 15 sub-genres including acid, progressive, funky, nu skool, ambient, hard, psy, garage, 2step, electro, happy, deep, disco, jump up, tech step, ragga, tribal, etc, etc, etc......... And then you have some real weird shit called expermental and acid jazz.....I have to be in a real chill, open minded, mood to get in to those.

If ya wanna talk music, hit me up on aim.
