I'm sorry house music can't make you dance. You're really missing out if you can only dance to techno. ^_^Robot Criminal wrote:ur kidding right? Electric shock (loosing control/baby judy whatnot) is not hard?then why am I allways dancing like it seems I'm gonna loose my limbs then? No house music can do that.

But it's definitely not hard, man. Look at the BPMs on those tracks. Sure, the sounds and waveforms were "edgy" but I don't think I'd describe that as "hard techno." In fact the early DBX stuff was notorious (in Chicago at least) for showing up in pure house sets. The BPM was in-line. The sounds were stripped and ghetto-ish. It had that perfect crossover.
In that same timeframe, hard techno was the stuff where the BPMs were above 135 and everything had distorted 909 kicks with open hi-hats on the 3, 7, 11 and 15. Like the early Speedy J stuff. That's hard.
