Re: The true story of Elektro

I really don't care about where they got there inspiration from. They might get all their ideas from both Larry Levan and Rod Stewart at the same time. The weird thing is that they talk like they take themselves way to serious.
They can't help calling it electro as many stuff is called electro nowadays: http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products/208285-01.htm

Re: The true story of Elektro

"a compilation of different beats and different noises" ... so that's what it's all about.

Monkey see, monkey do.

they need to put a donk on it

Re: The true story of Elektro

to be fair, the lasses that frequent these par-taays (judging by the very informative vid) seem rather big chested and look rather filthy, which is nice.

Filthy 'lectro doood.

Re: The true story of Elektro

This is a falsification and disrespect to many, this ain't electro music this is apres ski club pop for 14 year old farmers or douchebag college drop outs.
Made by and for fantasyless prententious cokehead pricks that only care how their hair looks.
and how they can score enough poppers to put in their flobby asses so they can shit all over their ableton ipod mp3 players

not my comment but one from youtube about this and by someone we are all quite familiar with around here. made me laugh.

yeah its easy to take the piss out off this sort of gash and its not about us being all high and mighty but we do know what electro is around here. the depressing thing is is this is what kids want to hear today. the difference say when i was their age 20 years ago was there was still also loads of shit music about then but you were also exposed to loads of good stuff.

Shoot-Myself-In-The-Face-lectro, LOL!

It`s like S.T.E.N.T.E.C. says, if the media calls it electro there is not much we can do, I`ve done this discussion a thousands of times on Belgian forums but it is `vechten tegen de bierkaai`. Why give it another name if the media has already decided? When an electroparty is presented here in Belgium you get a flyer with Justice, Tiga etc, too bad but what can we do? WE can only keep playing the real deal, nothing much more we can do I`m afraid.

"A Real Music Hater"

Re: The true story of Elektro

Yeah I remember somebody mentioned on this forum that when he threw a party somewhere in Belgium with some dutch electro/disco acts couple of kids went to him during the party and wanted their money back because there was no electro and they had seen 'electro' on the flyer smile

Re: The true story of Elektro

that was SUY.
i gave up explaining about 'true electro' to my collegues a long time ago
let them bob their heads to justice , to each their own.
come to think of it, true electro sounds as ridicilous as that true italo moniker.

yeah no kidding, and even while the Novamen where performing at that exact moment

If they werent girls, then I would have bitchslapped them out of the venue tongue

And indeed maybe its best to not try to explain and just leave the whole discussion.
For some reason its really hard to come up with a new name to describe a certain (new) style..
