I dunno if I can even endorse 'techno' amazing as it is, I'll just say 'house' OK?

with respect, while i applaud that position, IMO a valid distinction can be made as a lot of , for instance, early Derrick May/Rhythm Is Rhythm tracks really cannot be regarded as 'house'.
 
Like both and no need to be a snob and slag one or the other off IMO :)

the multi-textrual orchhestration of Abba 'dancing queen' and vomit encrusted baloon-passing game soundtrack of Black Lace 'agadoo' are both technically 'pop' records. So it is with techno/"tekno" ;):D
 
..always wondered whether it's just this country that wets itself in search of pigeonholes for musical genres btw??

well, if i was to go into a record shop and ask the character behind the counter if they had any good new "techno" records i wouldn't be hanging about for long if they then banged on something that sounded a printing press.

likewise I wouldn't imagine if 'Fungus' who lives in an empty oil drum, subsists on a diet of ketamine and spaghetti hoops and goes to squat parties called things like 'cranium-crush' would be parting with that morning's begging proceeds were the assistant to put some Larry Heard on.
