What exactly is techno?

Musical Instrument Digital Interface? Is that what you mean?
If so, yes, it can be but not exclusively.
If that's not what you're referencing then I'm not sure.

So the DJ,s are also composers...requiring an actual working knowledge of music...plus computer tech?
 
Techno is the tweaker soundtrack. Methed up clubbers can dance all night, but a standard musician with an instrument is less able to play all night. He may lose his voice, bleed on the strings, or just fall asleep on the stage. Spinning a few records or mixing some files is less physical work.

Fuckin' love Ramstein too.

From all the interviews with them I've watched I'm 99.9% they, like most "edgy" artists, have very much the opposite of Nazi tendencies.

Just because they used the imagery to make a point about the recent rise of a strong pro-censorship political climate in many European countries, especially their own, doesn't mean they are in support of Nazism.

Imo it means people claiming to censor everything to prevent "hate" and "Nazism" have become the fucking Nazis and as an edgy band that's their "Fuck you!" to the man (pictured below).


The man....

To be fair they are far from the only artist making that point lately. Comedians, musicians, film/game/e-content creators of all sorts are pushing back against the PC/thought police.

But if I had to guess? They did it to get a rise.....get shit loads of views on the Nazi video!!!

I scored a song with a program called Cakewalk way back in the day. I assume the "writing" is done on some sort of program like that and then the dj part comes from fading one "song" into the next. Or maybe it's digitally recorded synth input, or a combination of both, and sampling. :)

Of course the entire show could be recorded and the dj could just stand there and shake his/her ass. :)

Laying down the beats back in the day? :)
You can play regular instruments, lay down tracks and then fuck around with it as much as you want, throw in some samples. Essentially make your own 'sounds' 'music' whatever.
I know a lot of people aren't fans of rap but the beats are made in a similar fashion. There are a lot of layers to rap that are largely overlooked. Even the lyrics are done in bars with drops etc.

The thing about rap for me, forgetting its misogynistic base, the stories are just too far removed from my lily-white privileged existence to catch my interest, for the most part. That and I don't have a lot to be so angry about.

Exceptions of course. :)
 
Please look up Daft Punks Discovery Album. It is considered to be the Pinball Wizard of Techno. Also, there are several subcategories in Techno, House, and EDM are the ones you hear on the radio the most.
Some rather well-known artist in those categories are:
Calvin Harris
Marshmello (not missplelled)
Daft Punk
They might be giants
Devo
Avicii
David Guetta
Beck
Major Laser
All have been in the top 40 over the last forty years.

A lot of exceptions. Rap has grown significantly since the 90s. There's Jewish rap, trans rap, rap about lobsters by a white guy, rap about a guy and his cat, rap about comic books etc..
Every person has different tastes for whatever reasons so who am I to argue with them? Take Wagner, for example. People love to hate on Wagner but Tristan und Isolde is a beautiful story and a brilliant composition, imo.

With the death of rock-n-roll I guess I'll need to find a replacement. :)

I know it when I hear it. I'm unsure of how it comes to be. Musically. :)

How it is made? Lol
Again, I must direct you to Daft Punk. They are one of the oldest continuing performers still at it. Look them up on Youtube.
It is actually an offspring off of 70’s disco being remixed in dance clubs around the world by Disc Jockeys. You know the guys who scratched records and not the ones who just played them on the radio. Over the decades it has evolved to include computerized sounds and instruments.
At this point, you don't even need a human to sing the hook line. Lol
Two things every tech song has: base drop & crescendo.
The topics can range from love to meditation to death and war. It's internationally more listen to then in the states.
