Ciao -
Techno in figure skating is already quite common on the professional circuit.
The Olympics are another matter - contestants tend to choose very
conservatively for those events.
The reference to the skater who won while injured - probably indicates
Ukrainian skater Oksana Baiul, who won the gold in skating during the
previous Olympics - with enough injected committee-approved morphine to
manage the pain after a hi-speed collision on ice in practice the day
before.
Speaking of Oksana Baiul, I recall that she used quite diverse music works
in professional performances, including selections from Peter Gabriel's
"Passion" and techno tracks, along with the more traditional Swan Lake et
al.
