I don't think you're right in using an all encompassing word such as "techno"... Kraftwerk were doing there best stuff around the time of the Sex Pistols, ie, 20 years ago and what else would you call it but techno! Basically I don't thing it's evolved rapidly at all. Progressed yes with all its little off shoots but not evolved so rapidly. As it happens I was actually listening to my early Kraftwerk cds and they sound as fresh as when I first heard them, especially against the likes of some of these retro-electro artists. Regards, John

I wouldn't call their old work "Techno", it's more like "Electronic" that is the roots of what we *now know today* as "Techno". I was using the term "Techno" in the current-day (context, context (-: ) vernacular.

I think grabbing Kraftwerk as a singularity and using that as a basis for your evaluation is specious at best. I stand by my claim. There have been times in the past 5 years where the music of time N was already "obsolete" by the time N+6 months. I've never seen such a fast period of change in musical genres like that. The music of 1996 doesn't remotely sound like the music of 1991 to my ears. 1991-1992 Techno music almost sounds "quaint" now.

Again, a specious comparison. Why compare it against the people who are *deliberately* trying to do something which is a re-creation/evolution of that which came before it, i.e. Nuevo Electro? - Greg
