Padmapani Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 ^^ hardtechno?? poptechno rather... there's actually two subgenres of techno called hardtechno. #1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA-N5ZTuXjg&list=PLD177A32F6A052A46 #2 #1 has been called by that name since the early 90s (and is still more popular than psytrance around here; but the terminology is sometimes a bit messed up with acid techno, tribetek, ...), #2 is around and called hardtechno since about 2000. it take it your intention was a thread about #2?

Veracohr Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I don't really know anything about the genre, but: That I would call house. #2 That matches well in my mind with the term "hard techno". The only thing I have that I might call hard techno (not counting anything in acid style since it's generally considered separately) is kind of old, some stuff off the Harthouse Retrospective album: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4shN3tsEbBw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCHSUHlBRyY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padmapani Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 the first one doesn't fit into any of the above categories, but i see no other way but to call it hard techno. the second one imho has the "acid" aesthetic without actual acid, so in my book it goes into #1; i think i've even heard it in such a mixtape (pitched up of course).

exotic Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Is that HardTechno? I thought you meant schranzlike techno. I get my tags from last.fm .. maybe im wrong but it does sound llike hard techno to me.. ^^ hardtechno?? poptechno rather... there's actually two subgenres of techno called hardtechno. #1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA-N5ZTuXjg&list=PLD177A32F6A052A46 #2 #1 has been called by that name since the early 90s (and is still more popular than psytrance around here; but the terminology is sometimes a bit messed up with acid techno, tribetek, ...), #2 is around and called hardtechno since about 2000. it take it your intention was a thread about #2? yes it was about #2 , #1 sounds very dated and boring. just because there are some vocals doesnt make it pop - either ways is there a subgenre as poptechno ? That I would call house. ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padmapani Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 just because there are some vocals doesnt make it pop - either ways is there a subgenre as poptechno ? no, there isn't, but it's logical: techno + pop vocals -> poptechno i'd say look for stuff from chris liebing, carl cox and adam beyer for the early to mid 00s. afaik they all make much softer if not minimal techno now.
