About Kirby Expertise I know a lot about techno music itself, ask me if you would like suggestions for songs you should listen to. You can be extremely specific when you tell me what type of techno you want to hear, because I`ve heard a lot of it. For example, you can say `give me titles of some trance songs that are over 150 bpm` or `give me titles of some jungle songs that are heavy on the `bass` and not too heavy on the `drums`. If you are new to the techno genre, I can tell you about most of the different genres of electronic music. Meaning, I`ll explain what one is, and compare it to others. I don`t know much about Gabber or a ton about house, but I know the most about trance, dance (classic and new), jungle and happy hardcore. I have played classical piano and oboe since I was 5 and 11 (respectively) so if you are into classical but want to start listening to some techno, I can suggest some starter songs for you. I`m interested in helping more people learn about techno music because it is fairly unknown in some areas (like NH).
Experience Well let's put it this way... we all know that everyone steals music so I won't claim not to fit this description. However, I am also willing to pay exorbitant amounts of money to see my favorite artists live in concert to support them, and buy their CDs when I've sampled tracks (I'm cautious like that). If I don't, then it's their fault for not playing within 200 miles of me! Believe me if I had enough time to travel to Europe I would.
Question <<sorry if this is duplicated but I'm just not sure if it was sent at my first attempt>>
Hi,
I'm trying to unsuccessfuly find a piece of music and I hope you'll be able to help me. So far I found out that the name of the piece is Space Odyssey and that performers are Vinylgroover & Trixxy. With this I have no problem but actually this is not the version I'm looking for. I only found the Anabolic Frolic remix from the "Happy 2 be Hardcore Chapter 4". This remix is all around and it seems to be the most popular version. I think that I'm looking for some kind of the original piece, I heard it before on some station, the beat is just a bit slower and it seems to sound more techno then happy hardcore. Can you advice me on some more versions of the same song and find out if the song title and performers are realy as I state before. I just don't want it to be Anabolic Frolic remix. Thanks in advance.
Alex
Answer Hi...
First of all I apologize for the delay of the reply, finals week ;-)
Anyhow... the Vinylgroover and Trixxy version is the original version of that song, Anabolic Frolic's role on that CD is compiling and mixing all those tracks but what you're hearing is basically that original song. Therefore, I think what you're looking for is most likely a completely different tune. Because this song is one of probably many techno-ized Space Odyssey movie themes, you could try searching for Space + Odyssey + 2001 + techno or remix and you'd probably find it. So in short I'm sorry but all I know is that the VinylGroover and Trixxy version is just a super-fast, happy hardcore song probably no matter who remixes it... hope you find your song though!
Sincerely,
Kirby
