Fvtvr Paris

Hey I'm eyeing a show that will be at Fvtvr Paris. I saw a bunch of bad reviews with it being too crowded to enjoy dancing on google. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

One year after starting EDM/Techno, A few more questions

Hi all, so late 2023 I made a post here ( https://www.reddit.com/r/Techno/s/VvfZ0SeDEF ) about my new discovery of this wonderful genre of music

I really lived quite a sedentary lifestyle before this discovery and suddenly I don't dislike Berlin anymore, I love it here :D.

I've had the deepest of conversations and craziest of experiences birthed from this new love of mine, met the kindest of people too.

I consume a lot of this genre everyday, at work, at the gym, when I walk, before an interview, when I'm stressed, when I'm not stressed, sober, unsober, etc etc

Unfortunately my first and favourite techno club Watergate got closed down, but I'm glad I experienced it before it went away🕊

Anyways, please I do have a question as I'm still figuring out the nuances in the variety of subgenres available.

I realize the type of sound I skip a lot: those with a lot of verbal remixes like you hear at TomorrowLand Mainstages for example (progressive house?), also I am not sure I like the very hard techno style yet (think Verknipt / Sara Landry / Klang etc ) but I'll get there.

But I absolutely love a particular style of sound and I want to be sure of the subgenre it belongs to, if it's pure techno. Some of the tracks are :

8 Tone - Yanamaste, Ultimo Impero - TSVI Eternal, Primavera - Sons of Hidden, Listen to me - Are:gone , Moctave - Robin Schellenberg.

I really like Psytrance as well but I always find myself rotating across playlists made out of the tracks above.

Would appreciate also recommended playlists, thank you🙏🏾

Great Beyond Ticket Sales Question

About how fast did they sell out last year, or are they expected to sell out fast? I can only confirm the necessary details around end of Feb, but I see first tier is already sold out, and I'm worried they will sell out fast (plus I'm Canadian so exchange rate sucks right now).

I wonder if I get one upfront just to have it, if I end up not being able to go is there enough demand to easily sell it?

How these two techno titans lure 60.000 ravers to Flanders Expo

Flemish news paper De Morgen makes a portret of Charlotte de Witte and Amelie Lens. They will perform a B2B set three times in a sold out event hall Flanders Expo (capacity: around 20.000 people) in Ghent tonight, 1th February and 8th February.

In the portret they give an overview of their career, with quotes of agents, insiders and fan and upcoming DJ talent Amber Broos. False claims of beef are debunked. And of course their upcoming collab EP One Mind (release date 6th February) gets an announcement.

Recommendations for Stone Festival?

Going to Stone this year and there’s a lot of the lineup I’m not familiar with.

Definitely want to see Alarico, Blanka, Human Safari, Marron, Roll Dann.

Any other must see’s? In half a mind to just discover new artists when I’m there.

Looking for techno tracks with foreign vocal

Hello

I am looking for techno tracks between 130-155bpm with vocals like polyphonic chants or foreign vocals (slavic chant, russian, dialect from Africa, Polynesia etc, spanish portuguese etc).

A bit in the style of Vladimir Dubyshkin. or the last track of Vilchezz - Calabria

I am thinking of techno but I am opened to all style (trance, breakbeat, hardgroove, mental, atonal techno etc)

I know it's not "proper techno" but I am sure yall have some great tracks to share!

Thanks!
