    You're real! No fancy coffee cup, no clean desk, showing the audience what techno used to be! Thank you for keeping it a 💯

    Sample and Bass are the ones I own and play. Add MS-101 and Zoom CDR.
    Small setups can definitely pack a punch.
    Born 1969 in Belgium, all this made me nostalgic!

      I was a bit too young back then, to experiense Detroit Techno when it happened, but I have really liked learning about it when I got a bit older!

    When I think of Techno, this is what it think of. Well done.
    I know you are dance music focused, will there be any ambient focused episodes? French House seems like a great next video.

    • @AdamVoxMusic

      Thanks! I can maybe later look into ambient. You have the 1990s White room ambient and the 2000 Cafe del mar ambient. Both are interesting!

    I love what you're doing! Just low-key videos from a guy who loves the music!
    I can't believe I'd never heard of Blake Baxter!
    Techno was definitely more popular in Berlin, but it started getting some airplay in the US in the early '90s - at least on smaller Detroit/New York/Chicago radio stations. But there was a thing called the Telecommunications Act of 1996 which killed it. It was a law which allowed big companies to buy all the radio stations in the US. So it quickly turned into a few companies playing the same pop songs over and over. The law actually said they weren't allowed to buy a radio station just to shut it down - they couldn't have dead air. They had to play music. So they would buy the little stations then play awful music on a loop for months until they switched the station to pop music. One station in Ohio played nothing but Louie Louie (from the 1950s!!!) for a month! Hip hop was popular with kids and got airplay, but not house/techno. And then when Napster became a thing, it was Oakenfold and Sasha & Digweed and all those guys who started getting noticed in the US because all the Radio 1 / Global Underground sets were on Napster. The first time I even heard good electronic music was when I pirated a game called Wipeout XL for PlayStation, and the soundtrack had Chemical Brothers and FSOL and Prodigy. I was really into Aphex Twin and Autechre, but I never heard the good Detroit/Berlin stuff till maybe 2010.
    The origins of techno was definitely a mix of Detroit and Berlin and a lot of other places! Nobody ever mentions New York, but Joey Beltram was one of the most popular techno DJs in the US. And there's some early '80s Nitzer Ebb tracks that are sooo techno, and they're British. It's funny how nobody even had names for the music. EBM definitely wasn't something I ever heard when I was a kid. And when Kraftwerk said "Techno.... Pop!" it just seemed like a cool lyric.
    I live in Dallas now and it's cool that they actually have a little club called It'll Do that actually gets big techno DJs coming through. I've seen Carl Craig four times. He's one of my absolute favorites. Robert Hood and Kevin Saunderson come through about once a year. Here's a little unlisted clip of me seeing Carl Craig during the pandemic when it was a bit taboo to be out 😃

      Thanks for a great comment! It'll Do club sounds really great. I'll keep that in mind if I pass by Dallas. I've touched the New York scene a bit when I deep dived the origines of House, but maybe I can include NY some more when I deep dive into Garage House. I agree that NY deservs some more attention from me. :)

    Being into heacy UG techno since the early 90s, I found this to be a great blast from the past and a great jam! Just would love to hear the 90s / Berlin techno made without samples. Maybe using Volca Kick for kick, but how do youo get those 909 claps and hats?

    • @AdamVoxMusic
      @AdamVoxMusic  Рік тому +1

      Volca Drum can be used to create very 909 like drum sounds.
