so people championing surgeon - who plays dubstep, splatter stuff, a bit of this and that - are being purist?

I'm enjoying it - it's interesting, but I'm sitting down at home. Woe betide anyone playing this kind of techno when I want to dance

Er, no. Try reading the thread again - I appreciate it's Friday and you've got other things on your mind but still . . .

Skim said:He was playing quite minimal stuff. Sometimes minimal can be a bit weedy, but I liked his set a lot
Ok, I'm completely rubbish at genres but whenever I've heard someone say such-and-such is minimal techno, it's been music that has made me want to slit my wrists, but I really liked his set. It banged!e2a: have I got the right person? I mean the chap who came on just before the sublime gergl.

Yeah, some of it just plods along and doesn't have enough going on. But then you get some tracks which are quite minimal but have a nice meaty kick drum to keep you dancing
There was a fantastic white label out last year called Erotic Discourse which is really minimal, but works so well:
Have a listen

haha... i love all those techno reords with ridiculously meaningless titles, like they've just closed their eyes and stuck a pin in two words from a dictionary. Stephen brown's releases on Transmat are the eopch of this.
like all those dire old second wave of punk bands with names like 'Chaotic Distemper' etc.

You can have slow and hard you know - listen to dubstep!Mation said:No I did mean hard enough (for me, natch).
But it's probably too slow to boot!
