But like the above mentioned tracks, "over time" we have grown to love
them, and recognise them as classics. Perhaps the pigenholing, and
"slapping" the label on a genre of music detracts from the importance. I
think that might be what you're struggling with. Most of us these days
hate to use the word "Techno"(which most of the above tracks are
considered to be) but if I, for instance, were to thrown on a track at a
party, it made you "think", and persuaded you to buy it, would it matter that
it was a "goan-influenced" track from, say, Man With No Name?
