Im not for or against techno, electronica, and similar music. to each his own. I just want to know what people like about it. the beats?, tunes?, ect...
Yea I don't consider something music unless it was made by actual musical instruments, not a computer. But anyway I suppose that the people who like techno are the people who like clubbing and raves and dancing etc. It is psychadelic sound in its own way and when you add rhythm to it-it becomes danceable and can put you in a trance(why it's also called Trance music) to dance the night away. Also people who are on drugs like ecstasy interpret the sounds different, kind of like in the 60's people on drugs were listening to the Beatles etc. for the first time.
I listen to everything...but I must say that I do like techno, electronica and so on. It is the beat that catches my attention first...it is fast...great for the treadmill and eliptical. The beat and sound is happy and motivating...so when I'm feeling 'blue' it lifts my spirit....unlike the angry rock I sometime listen to...I don't really listen to the lyrics because they usually don't make sense in these types of music.
Others love it and when these people get together it is a 'group' thing...just like any other music attracts fans this group is a very energtic group...fun people if you ask me...usually harmless too.
