Talks bout new MSTRKFT stuff and about electronic music in general. Pretty good read.

"Boys Noize makes minimal techno now"

What?

Also interesting that he calls it electro. I really think there's some taboo about people who like/make electro-house actually calling it electro-house, as if it's a dirty word, and there ashamed to say it.

So MSTRKRFT will make another "Led Zeppelin III" (as he already called Fist of God their equivalent to it)?

edit: nevermind, read it again, I got it wrong. But still, JFK does say some questionable things.

He does mention that they created Fist of God in view of where they thought the scene was going. It still sucked but makes sense to me. Worst artwork ever as well.

I agree. He said a lot of interesting stuff but over all I would say he came off as thinking he was the savior of "electro." Some of the terrible things he described in this scene he totally perpetuated.

Edit: Says some interesting things as well.. dunno.

Yep, they're both electro-house. Not techno.

...and Shadow Dancer too? I doubt it! They all make techno (lately), but since they came from this 'banger' scene it may seem that they're less techno than other producers.

I wouldn't say Mumbai Science and Djedjotronic are techno at all.

When I think of techno I think of Ben Klock and Dettmann.
