Do Americans listen to techno???

I listen to techno when I'm at karate or at the gym

Not really. I guess it's big in clubs, but not on the radio really. xD

I like technoish sounding music. Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future have what I would consider techno music. I like that sort of music. Too bad America either

A) Doesn't make it
B) Is really ty at making it
C) Is way to underground to know about

The stuff I hear in clubs and stuff like that is complete . They have the exact same sound/beat/whatever going on for one minute then slightly alter it. KNOW WHAT! To see what I am talking about just watch Strong Bad's e-mail on techno music at www.homestarrunner.com .

You guys need to familiarize yourself with Brisk and Trixxy's Eyeopener.

In a BAD way.

I'll pass on that.

No, we only listen to Country and Jazz.

I'm in Canada and it's quite popular around my friends.

i think techno is cool sounding

Techno is creepy. Some songs are ok but most of it is the same short bass line the whole way through and it grinds my nerves, especially if its loud. Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Ooomph Yargh! I could be getting it mixed up with dance music though. It dosn't appear that often in New Zealand.

*moves to The Lounge*

I don't hear too much of it, but one of the radio stations that I listen do seems to play it in the evenings and I don't mind the stuff that they play. I couldn't listen to it for more than a few hours though myself before I'd want to hear some good rock.

yeah, dj tiesto, dj mystic, telepopmusik, ATB, moby, 4 strings, daft punk, chemical brothers etc. Im American and listen to techno.......

Don't even remind me of Brokeback Mountain. *shudders*

Anyway, not that I know of.

Eminem once made fun of Moby for Techno... I like it in action movies like Mortal Kombat and Blade but I aint gonna bump that down the street.

I keep hearing that term, often in a derogatory manner, what the hell actually IS it?

I hate the fact that meaningless techno and dance music is big in Europe. Every year around summertime a mindless One-hit-wonder in the techno/dance genre comes around and becomes irritatingly popular and thus destroying both the sane minds of us Europeans and the music charts... Hate these songs.
