Why arent African-Americans more into techno?

[ugksam]

is there another way they are used? Or rather is there another way black people DO like to use them

Techno is more "drug related". At least how I know it...

psychedelics are used for medicinal purposes some places

LOL I remember going to this pre college program KCP and meeting some folks from Detroit who were....Jitting ....sweet God we got a good laugh from that...but come to find out..

best female at jittin I ever seen - YouTube

Its pretty popular still in Detroit.

KCP! You went too? My pops made me go, but I ended up loving that shyt. I met folks from all over - Saginaw, Benton Harbor, Pontiac. shyt was dope.

I was made to go to KCP damn near every summer. After that first time it was REALLY fun as hell. I always enjoyed seeing those Detroit females. I'm from the Sag so it was a nice change of pace..And the college females roaming the campus during the summer...OOOOOO

a lot of techno is boring soulless blippity blop shyt


that 'perculator' track one cat was talking about was str8 buttcheeks


how do u expect a certain genre to thrive, if 80% of the music don't evoke no feelings of joy, or feelings of anything in the damn listener

If you've never got broke off by a woman to percolator you haven't lived.

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

shyt you'd be suprise how many hood nikkas be at dem Techno Festivals

i think the older generations like it more tho my pops stay listening to house/techno

nowadays its blended in with rap

Yeah, man. We got bombarded with it in the early 90's.......











It just got kinda difficult to keep dancing to beats in-excess of 140 BPM and there were just too damned many different sub-genres to keep up with.....Jungle, Drum n' Bass, Hardcore, Trance, etc......

Only places black people are really into electronic music are Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore and Jersey. I sure there are a few more places but these are the big ones.

 

[mortuus est]

Its a misconception, i'm from detroit and i can tell you when DEMF hits black folks are at the festival too....Techno/House is in our roots...

Yes, we did...in Detroit...

it isn't, the shyt was made before "hip-hop" was even a full musical culture. Everything about it makes it techno...

you only even associate it with hip-hop because its been sampled and used by so many who participate in the hip-hop culture.
