yup. I'm doing it. I've been teaching my buddies in ensembles class my songs and we've decided to start a band. a mutual friend of ours (who I used to be in a band with long ago) said she'd sing. I think it'll be pretty amazing. oh and I posted new songs.... "new hair", "aqua", and "bathing"

thanks man. I'm going a bit childish with the style, which will be good to many bands around her take themselves way too seriously

Dan Deacon's "Wham City" goes on both of your playlists right now. It's like Raffi decided to write techno.

It does, doesn't it? I mean, if you replace the techno riffs with an acoustic guitar playing basic open chords, totally.

Also, I'd like to voice my support for this venture. It does sound a little generic indie, but who the ******** cares, eh? It's not radio trash, and you'll work out a you sound, for certain, especially when your band members and yourself really mesh, so don't sweat that noise.

I know my stuff is kind of garden variety indie rock, but that's just because I'm trying to mimic the sound of a full band instead of just doing whatever and freeing up the instrumentation (which I'll definitely do someday) I especially look forward to the "meshing". (with exception of our drummer) the group has a pretty wide range of interest, and yet we're still all very like-minded. working on a cover of The Damned's "Neat Neat Neat" we have a freekin amazing vocalist and we finally have a place to practice. so I too would like to express my support. =D

I don't mean to be negative in any way, but Dan Deacon is the furthest thing from techno. Try this or this. Anyway, new songs are sounding good. I agree with others on the meshing though. Once you have a solid foothold you can experiment more. Keep on keeping on.

Er, no. Richard Swift is the furthest thing from techno, and what you've got there is just loop-based, heavy bassline pseudo-dance techno music. Kinda genera-indie techno, really. I mean, they're not trying to be Daft Punk (for a change, bonus points plus a thousand zillion) but it's also not any more super-indicative of techno than what I posted. Hell, what I've got's even more cookie-cut, due to the arpeggiation, odd syncopation, and auto-Q'd bass riffs. Oh, but I suppose this is where I supply a counter-attack to keep the stream of oddities strong. Check this shite out.

It's getting into semantics, but are we talking about the same techno?

I seem to think the genre is a bit wider than you seem to think it is.

I may be tired, but I got the impression that your post equated to 'techno = electronic music'. And I would never call Daft Punk 'techno'.
