So What's in Techno ?
Updated: Feb 16
Mmm Techno... Have you ever been in this dark place, with those flashing lights, and that melody that turns you to machine... Well, this is Techno my friends.
My first touch with Techno was around 2007/8 in a few underground clubs in Tel Aviv. Clearly, it catched my attention: the melodies, the bass, the rythm, let's just say I liked it a LOT. Here is a famous example to one of the "flag tracks" of those days: Pryda- Europe
Lately I went to Berlin, the mother of Techno. I had to realize what is going on over there, why everybody tells me: "Hey, if you like Techno, you have to visit Berlin!" ?
So I did it, and something there just made me feel at home, no matter which kind of Techno was palyed.
I met many new sub genres , including funkey vibes, such as: Gregory Porter - Liquid Spirit (Claptone Remix)
Some interesting morning melodies, such as: Hraach & Armen Miran - Mysterious World (Original Mix)
Some kicking Techno, such as: Paul Thomas & White Akre - Dark Heart (Extended Mix)
And, some "Berlin Techno"- that lets you get inside yourself and move into the beat, explore your mind and complete the dots. Something like that: Tale Of Us & Ovend - Red Sky
What kind of Techno do you like?
I have tried to mix some "Berlin vibes" along with classic old-school techno in my DJ set in one of the "burn" productions in Israel.
