Death Techno - Best Idea Ever?

[StarStruckStrumpets]

Me, and my friend voodoopigs as some of you may know him, were talking today about something very unusual.

The idea of a new type of music...Death-Techno

A Hybrid of Death Metal and Techno.

What do you think about this?

Been done before really... was a big thing in the 90's to mix dance/techno with metal, they called it industrial

edit: I know not all industrial metal is not like this and yes some of it did sound awsome

 

[dwightsteel]

ummmmm....no. And not just to your post, but to the thread title as well.

 

[Vlane]

I don't think that would work. I can't imagine listening to a mix between Cannibal Corpse and DJ Tiesto (I hope that is the guy I mean).

No offense but that sounds worse than the idea of rap.

Woot, the most AWFUL IDEA EVER.

Any techno song is a thing unworthy of being called a song.

Unless you are under 17/have serious problems, you shouldn't be listening to that thing.

 

[DJShire]

are we talking about real techno, or what the masses refer to as "techno"?

Please, elaborate on this view, I'm curious as to why you think this.

I never "got" techno. You can pretty much loop the first 20 seconds and get the same song.
Just to tell you, I just tried making a short sample on FL Studio, mixing death metal guitars with a slow, heavy techno loop and it's like water and oil.

That's a very ignorant view to hold. You may not appreciate this genre of music, but to not even recognise it as a genre? That's just narrow-minded.

I think Techno is just an excuse for people to use E and dance with glowsticks... (as you can tell I am not a big fan of techno at all.. )

Kinda like this [http://www.blaqkaudio.com/]? Not completely fitting the definition, but not the worst example either.

 

[Saltiness]

Celldweller comes to mind as an example, although it improves a million times over when the guy doesn't open his mouth at all. But I feel that way about most cross-genre types of music. I do remember a Russian artist called Planum that wasn't too bad either - link [http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/sud/sud1cd029.html]

Nothing new. Listen to some Gabba techno or anything on Death Chant Records.

Neophyte is one of my personal favourites.

LOL at your misguided comments. What a daft thing to say even if you have no respect for Kraftwerk and their ilk. How many countless movies which I am sure you love have a pulsing techno tracks that drive and enhance a piece of cinema?

There are scores of classically trained Electornic pioneers that have far more skill engineering music and understanding how to compose than I bet half the bands you listen too.

I am an avid music listener and have a very large collection of vynil cd mp3 minidisks spanning a whole prethora of musical genres. I think you havn't yet heard any good techno which is sad but you can't chastise something you've not listened to properly so easily.

I believe that 95% of all music in all genres is crap. But the 5% left is worth seeking out and enjoying and hells yeah there is lots to love about techno!

EDIT: I am not 17 and have never had any mental health problems! Just issues with my punctuation and grammer!

 

[Abedeus]

Okay, to all those ravid techno fans (I knew they will attack me...): I'm not talking about fast-paced music, good beats and so on. I agree that there is "real techno" and... techno crap.

When I say "techno = not a genre", I'm referring to all the crappy songs that are on the radio non-stop - Lady Gaga, just to name one. Sorry, but I do not consider singing one or two sentences with a looped background a "song".

It's just few steps from the "UMCA UMCA UMCA" rave music.

Try Ghengis Tron.

Its called industrial... Its metal and Electronica fused into a big musical orgie.
Now we just jump the BPM from the 120- 140 range up 180-210 and u have Death-Industrial...
