I disagree. 'Techno' covers a multitude of electronic styles, this is within those realms, verging on minimal techno. To label Techno as 'noise for noise sake' is a little misjudged in my humble opinion. I don't like to dismiss any genre as there is something good in every one, although in some it is harder to find the wheat among the chaff. There are many many great Techno tracks that are technically and sonically brilliant, good 'noise' indeed;) I thought this track was more Techno than my usual labelling of 'Miscellaneous'. Shame NG doesn't cover more genre categories really. Cheers for taking the time to leave a review.
