  • I do still see Acid as a form of Techno rather than House as it has no sampled disco elements

    I look forward to dropping this as my own observation next time I have the opportunity. Thanks.

  • It’s an odd definition as so many techno records eg Carl Craig, Jeff Mills etc are based around disco samples.

  • It doesn't help that I'm not that interested in either of them as artists relating to Techno.

    Robert Hood though, his latest LP Mirror Man is worth a listen as a modern reference for Techno.

    To soften the blow about those 2 artists I see them as important second wave Detroit Tech and more musicians than producers, hence their later orchestral efforts. They are definitely important artists in Detroit Techno but after 1990 it was on it's own path or in it's own bubble until Plastikman.
