Do people use these expresseions at all? The wave terminology comes from Toffler, and his book 'The Third Wave', which infomed some of the early techno ideology (to oversimplify things). I just stumbled across this, which is one take on it: http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/1392/DetroitTechno.html "If Juan Atkins Derrick May Kevin Saunderson are the first wave of Detroit Techno artists; Carl Craig, the Underground Resistance crew and ... the second wave, then Moodymann (Kenny Dixon Jr) Theo Parrish and Terrence Parker are the third wave". I think this guy may have his timelines a bit off and is neglecting a few folks. But I think that illustrates that it's all pretty subjective... TP has been DJing for 20 years. Does that make him a 1st Wave DJ and a 3rd Wave producer??? No point in digging that deep into it really. Just remember: Steve Paton is the 4th Wave. :) Tristan ===== Text/Mixes: http://phonopsia.tripod.com Music: http://www.mp313.com Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
