>Am I completely wrong or am I the only one who dares to say... IMO Your only stating your opinion and there nothing wrong with that.
>Ax-020 is a completely disappointing record... More than that compared >to his visionary releases in the early/mid 90's I think Mills produced >no good record during the last 2 years... Any comments? Because he's been on the experimental tip lately but I see what your saying, I feel the same way about many Detroit artist nowadays. But lets look at this whole "tribal techno" movement that I'm not especially a big fan of, would it have even happened if it wasnt for Jeff Mills? that's basically what it is, just a bunch of Jeff Mills rehash from 3 or 4 years ago. Newer doesn't necessarily mean better but many Detroit techno or former Detroit techno artist feel they have to change for the sake of progress. When I listen to Detroit techno its mostly the classic stuff because that had a formula that worked, yes it is considered dated compared to today's dance trends but like they say newer doesn't necessarily mean better and alot of what I hear in electronica/ techno culture today is really not that new or better, its just more eclectic and refined due to technological advancements. stephen.
