"techno nerds" what does this have to do with EDM?

• qzx_pierri 4y ago
  I wouldn't lump Techno in with 'EDM' Techno = A movement that is largely an exercise in pushing computers/midi to their limit while creating inventive music. EDM = event driven marketing. pop music with a 4x4 kick drum. ...Yeah I know, semantics.

    Ah yes, nothing more inventive than using the same drum synthesizer for 40 years! Also, I'm sure it's super hard to push the limits of all 127 values of dynamic range that MIDI offers, especially when you also write all your music on common time

      Well, TR-808s (and the re-makes) still sound great.
