techno is a process of abstraction and not a process of decoration.
being minimal was just so natural for a master like Jeff who totally understood this notion above very very early.
if the "kids" can't understand if Jeff is minimal...so on..
it's becuase techno is now developping totally in different manner than before. there's no true reserch on this abstraction, but only those ridiculous decorations everywhere...
I AM VERY VERY SORRY FOR LOTS OF PEOPLE HERE BUT,
i'm sure that 10, even 5, even 3 years later,
it won't be M-NUS everywhere when we'll talk about the history of minimal techno.
i have nothing against m-nus, or richie hawtin. I love them.
but it doesn't make any sense the way they're using this "minimal" for their image making stuff.
i'm desperately sure that there's true players in this world, let's wait for them.

what Jeff does is a lot, but not minimal. it's maximal in any way...
