Top 5 Best Electro of '08

THEN FUCKING DO IT. Less talk, more fucking show. All you bitches do is throw out conjecture: let's see some fucking evidence.

[Robototron]

If you want to try and argue that even though they were insanely more influential over here than we ourselves were we were still secretly better, fine, I guess, go ahead.

You officially have no fucking clue as to what you're talking about.

[jazzz]

In the 90s?

I'll bet without even bothering to check that UK techno artists outsold US techno artists IN THE US by at least 2:1 during the rave era. If you want to try and argue that even though they were insanely more influential over here than we ourselves were we were still secretly better, fine, I guess, go ahead. But let's see some fucking names and do some comparing.

Everybody wants to talk shit about this without anything to back it up. But I'm assuming you were talking about techno TODAY, Orbit. No?

again I'm not holding up for the US but I don't think it matters who sell's the most records so why look at it that way unless your just to lazy to listen to the music... I'll take Pan-Sonic over fucking Underworld but oh.. Underworld sells more so I must take them instead??? Randy go ahead and list your top US producers that you know about

[Robototron]

THEN FUCKING DO IT. Less talk, more fucking show. All you bitches do is throw out conjecture: let's see some fucking evidence.

Are you fucking kidding? Orbit just did and you obviously have no idea who any of them are, so what difference does it make?

[jazzz]

But UK breaks wins by far.

true... always has

[orbit]

And well, UK wins in IDM too. Not by too much, though.

Taking anyone over Underworld is fucking idiotic--AND PAN SONIC IS FUCKING FINNISH. ASSHOLE. You don't know what you're talking about.

Are you fucking kidding? Orbit just did and you obviously have no idea who any of them are, so what difference does it make?

Orbit didn't list any acts--he tried to claim an entire genre. And he hasn't backed it the fuck up.


PUT UP OR SHUT UP YOU IGNORANT FAGGOTS.

Hey, look what Google can do for you!

No UK techno djs can top Juan Atkins/Mills/Craig/Saunderson/May.

[orbit]

How do you want me to back it up? Showing you billboard charts?

I was talking only about techno, not electronic music in general.

[thelastgreatman]

And well, UK wins in IDM too. Not by too much, though.

C'mon, Orbit--I actually respect your opinion, but I'm tired of this shit. Either give me five artists who you think were beating the UK in techno in the 90s or fuck off.

[luckyface]

And well, UK wins in IDM too. Not by too much, though.

Overall or vs. the US? I think it is pretty safe to say the UK dominates IDM.

[orbit]

TECHNO:

Juan Atkins
Jeff Mills
Kevin Saunderson
Derrick May
Carl Craig


Now, give me 5 techno artists from the UK who could beat the ones I mentioned.

[thelastgreatman]

Hey, look what Google can do for you!

Holy fuck, how can you dumb assholes not understand the concept of what was influential in the 90s? You really wanna stack what those artists turned out in that decade against the UK? Ya sure?

[orbit]

I think tlgm is calling techno to electronic music.

[orbit]

Overall or vs. the US? I think it is pretty safe to say the UK dominates IDM.

Yeah, vs the US. Here there are great ones too, but less known.

[Robototron]

Holy fuck, how can you dumb assholes not understand the concept of what was influential in the 90s? You really wanna stack what those artists turned out in that decade against the UK? Ya sure?

Are you seriously telling me that guys like Jeff fucking Mills weren't influential in the 90s?

And yeah, orbit, that would explain why he keeps going on and on about the Chemical Brothers or whoever the fuck.

Hahahahaha... did you two just pull up the same google results? Just an interesting coinky-dink.

Sure. Remember, we're talking about in the 90s. I'll give you three that win it without even trying to look anything up, thanks.

Aphex
Orbital
Underworld

Are we going to argue about whether or not it's accurate to say that they fall within techno? Cause we all know how you bitches are with your genre definitions.

[Robototron]

Yeah, vs the US. Here there are great ones too, but less known.

Yeah, the UK definitely has the better big names. I agree that the UK beats the US at IDM, but I don't think they could take on the whole world.

[thelastgreatman]

I will pull up the artists own definitions of their genres. If we can't use that as a basis, fuck off.


Am I seriously saying that they were AS influential? Meaning that the shit they released in the 90s got spun 1/3 as much as UK shit did OVER HERE? YES.

[Robototron]

I was quoting him, obviously.

You might as well try and argue that the Wu-Tang Clan is a fucking rock band because that's basically what you're doing right now. All EDM isn't Techno you complete half-wit.

I see you googled that.. haha but my point is who gives a fuck about sales? the good shit doesn't sale well cos we got too many lazy cunts like yourself that can't figure it out. And yes butthole I was buying electronic music djing and enjoying E in all sorts of various illegal spots while you where being breast feed. you TwAT

[thelastgreatman]

I'm sorry--would you like to tell the acts not to consider themselves as having been part of the genre? Cause they do.

Oh clearly you were--after all, you managed to cite a band that isn't even from this country. You must have been very hip.


If you're going to try and claim Underworld are unimportant, you have no business in here at all.

LOL

[thelastgreatman]

You're citing the fucking Detroit techno movement for Christ's sake. Yes, we all know they crafted it--IN THE 80S.

[orbit]

They crafted it in the 80s and worked it up in the 90s. I asked you to name 5 techno djs from the UK who can top them. Aphex's TECHNO releases has not been better than Atkins'.

Actually, he hasnt released anything entirely techno in the 90s. Analord series were 2000s.

[Robototron]

You're citing the fucking Detroit techno movement for Christ's sake. Yes, we all know they crafted it--IN THE 80S.

You are aware that the movement continued well into the 90s and that many of the genres biggest names didn't even begin producing and/or produce their seminal work UNTIL the 90s, correct? Or did you stop reading Wikipedia before you got that far?

asshole I never said Pansonic were from the US... I wasn't fighting for the US I was laughing at your heavy hitter big UK acts....

PS. Underworld had to release that 2 disc singles best of a few years back cos they new it wasn't gonna date well for a later release

PSS. lucky for you you got the Propellerheads

[luckyface]

Yeah, vs the US. Here there are great ones too, but less known.

I'd be interested in hearing some of them. What are some of the better ones, in your opinion?

[jazzz]

LGM what is your most loved electronic genre? we might be able to help you out so you don't get stuck cruising LA with Paul Oakenfold trying to pull
