i think in prague man , the people confuse the genres with the music itself...clubfoot wrote:sorry mate, i don't really have any specific examples. i don't listen to that much of other peoples music at home these days as i'm totally absorbed in developing my own sound at the moment. i live in Prague - a lot of djs here talk of minimal but they play this music that has very trancey (big) sounds combined with some of the typical production techniques pioneered within the techno / house realm. i also notice some very long crowd pleasing trancey breakdowns/drops in this music. i suppose it all comes from people jumping on the kompakt or border community styles - but people who have come from a more trance / progressive background rather than an electro / hiphop/ house / techno one.tone-def wrote:clubfoot wrote:minimal as a genre name is utter sht. it basically means trance in techno's clothing. there is trance, there is techno, there is house.juhokusti wrote:full support. seems to me that most people think of melodic tech-house or progressive stuff whenever one mentions the term minimal. the word has worn out.clubfoot wrote:minimal
at the time i joined this board, 'minimal' represented an aesthetic in techno. now, as i say, minimal = trance in disguise. i like techno. i don't like trance.
examples of trance in techno clothing please.
i'm not saying it's bad music - it just makes me think of beatport and all that 'safe' generic obvious music you hear there. it's a long way from robert hood for instance.
that Aril Brikha 12" on kompakt a little while back is maybe a good example.

well, the term was invented a couple of years ago I think to describe the sound Rekid (Radioslave) used on his album "made in menorca". And yeah, the bpm is really low, around 90-80.Atheory wrote:Krul wrote:smack-house. seriously....
wow! what does smack house sound like?
about 30bpm? every steals the equipment at the end of the night?

great music. crappy name.
So where does the name Garage as a genre description originate?juhokusti wrote:true. I don´t think it has anything to do with that either.tone-def wrote:but thats got nothing to do with UK Garage, which i think was a joke.
( Whatever you say, I still think it's stupid anyway )
I rememebr when i was a kid and first heard the term House, then when I heard the term garage, I thought someone was taking the piss.
