i've often assumed that derrick doesn't pay much attention to the newer
generation (he'll claim that no one young ever approaches him- and
maybe
that's true), but its ridiculous to proclaim techno dead, simply
because
his particular style (and fame?) is dwindling.
This has been a watershed year for techno artists and records and
albums.
i won't even start naming names, but we all know its there.
Matthew Dear gets coverage in Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly,
the
kid lives an 8 minute drive from Bellvue and Derrick says there's no
new
generation!?
Maybe he honestly doesn't feel the new stuff. Or maybe he's honestly
just
not aware of it. Or maybe he's being cranky.
I seriously think I need to send Derrick a care package of new
releases.
Shall we compile a 313-list new techno artists CD for him?
Suggestions?

generation of young musicians coming through to follow up in our
footsteps."
