You're quite right. In a year or so its all going to sound like that infernal disco beat of 78. But the overall scene responds to criticism quite a bit, so expect it to change. I expect techno to drop the 4/4 by the end of the year. 10-4 over and out good buddy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chris Sattinger reprogramming our reality through disco new records coming on : Synewave(jan), Subvoice(feb), Sativae(?)
