I'm lucky enough to hail from DVS1's hometown. He's throwing an invite-only event SoonTM that I'm going to, and I was just curious if anyone else was going and wanted to say hi and/or grab a drink sometime and talk the techno? PM me!

edit: Was wishful thinking. This thread is probably 90% euro. It gets lonely this side of the pond. :sigh:

Has anybody stayed across the river in Windsor for Movement in the past? I ask because I am unfortunately stuck booking late due to friends of mine being tentative until the very last minute. Everything near Hart Plaza in Detroit proper is completely booked at this point (to be expected), but there seems to be a lot of close and affordable vacancy in Windsor. I already have a passport, no criminal record, and generally appear a pretty standup dude to most people in public, so I cannot foresee having issues crossing back and forth across the border. This is made double-easy by the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel I am thinking. I guess for $5 you can just take a bus over and then you're right there in Hart Plaza.

Seems ok? Am I missing anything with this plan? Would also be my first time attending Movement, so any first-timer DO THIS or DON'T DO THIS wisdom would also be much appreciated. Thanks Techno thread. :)

Awesome advice, thanks.

Although I am still confused as to why Windsor is such a bad option? I'd be about a mile away from Hart Plaza. Does border crossing really represent more of an issue than driving 10+ miles through downtown Detroit and dealing with the fest's parking? My thought was to cross the border early in the day and spend all day and some of the night in Detroit before crossing back to Windsor for sleep. If you really do advise against it though, welp, guess I'll have to keep digging for accommodations.

(I swear, next year I'm just going to book this for myself in January and screw everybody else. :sigh:)

I've always found Trevino's stuff to be melodic goodness in the genre: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQV1T3Y3RqY

is it ok to ask people about trap in this thread? those truth anti smoking commercials have me checking it out

It is unfortunate that the term "techno" became kind of a catch-all for anything electronic in music. Not really sure if there is a thread for trap, but yeah trap and techno are both trying to do very different things musically.

(Since you are exploring new stuff right now though, I highly recommend checking out some of the links in this thread to see if you like real techno! :c00l:)

I dunno what to tell you guys, thats a really boring song, and it's not techno. Try again.

:same:

Definitely would be more at home in a deep/prog house set.

vvv :thumbsup: solidarity with Brussels!

Here's a great interview with DVS1 I watched recently:

He also had a mix on BBC radio come out recently. First 3 minutes are conversation, rest is music. Pretty good:

Completely warm, inviting, and otherworldly sound to this guy's stuff. I really want more techno like this.
