You're stretching because simply put you really don't have a point with your criticism at all. Pretty much ALL electronic music costs more than $70, your point is moot. Real Breakcore groups use very little outside ReNoise, but I don't really feel that compelled to argue it, your origional point dies by simply adding ANY genere into it, IE "Bring back Disco. IT BLOWS AWAY BIG BEAT. The Techno stuff is just ridiculous. So tough to listen to. It just sounds like a bunch add rich kids with too much time on their hands."
Incidentally Detroit is what is copied when it comes to Techno of pretty much any type, NOT the ones doing the copying.
The poster that wrote the comment is employing complete ignorance to the reality of musical history. Both now, and when Techno was created here. Period.
Right Techno is the basis of all electronic music!
This is just silly, not worth delving into but suffice to say, you don't know music history very well. Electronic music, and techno even were around before Detroit got into it. Kraftwerk for one were considered 'techno' when I was a kid, and the 'techno' from Detroit was considered, and is still considered Detroit Techno. Go back to music history class, and stop being so obviously provincial.
Autechre is boring as heck. Just about as creative and musically REAL as nerds can be i guess. No groove, no melody, just squeaks n bleeps with a little elonGATED BS thrown in to break up the manotony.
To me your music taste sucks, no wonder you would think that.
The kids part of "rich kids" was a statement that holds true throughout the entirety of extreme music genres or fringe clique related "scenes". What was it the one poster said about "scenesters"? What the hell are scenesters anyhow? Are they the people NOT living in their bedroom at 40? LOL! Too much. Anyhow, the "kids" part of "rich kids" represents a real lack of musical experience. So they pretend they are being genuine by making up stuff that just harsh and rediculously fast in predictable ADD fashion. It's all in good fun and everyone knows that art is subjective so who has the right to criticisize it, right?
I agree you have a right to your own opinion, your ridiculous hypothesizing to back it up is all I question.
ANYTIME that "music" is generally considered a tough listen or a form of music that requires tolerance to endure or "get", most likely the people making it are NOT musicians, but rather bedroom nerds and social outcasts looking for attention. Somewhere to fit in.
NUFF SAID.
Wow? You're a total idiot aren't you? This is where you just fail so miserably it's not even funny?
Where to start? EVERY form of music that is now considered legitimate went through a period of time where people, usually older people, thought it was not musical etc.
Here's a short list:
Rock and Roll,
Heavy Metal,
Jazz,
Punk,
industrial,
Big Band,
Ambient,
AND
Electronmic Music in all it's forms.
I know old people that hate all electronic music, they think it's cold, robotic, and lifeless, or made by people with too much money, and not connected to the audience etc. like rock music.
Seriously congratulations in adapting your parents lack of taste for experimentalism in music, have a nice time creating tracks that sound like everybody else's.
Just to add to this, Autechre are musically trained, so the group in particular you hate on here fails to pass your hypothetical conclusion.
