    Actually the Extrawelt track I used as an example is on the Cocoon label, and yes It hink is sounds very big.

    But, Yeah your right. A loft of tracks use elements from both the minimal and techno genre, making them very hard to categorize. But of cause it is like that. I dont think a lot of producers sit down and say "hey - I want to do a pure Techno track/Minimal track". They put together the sounds and beats they like at that particular moment.
    What I am trying to say is that I think it is perfectly natural that genres get mixed together, and that no perfect borders are to be found. And I dont think we necessarily has to put all that tracks in these corect "genre-boxes". The genres just makes it easier to write and talk about music, without being able to listen to it.

    don't ask me for examples
    Jup, Dub-Techno is a well defined genre. It's even a Beatport genre.

    Exactly!
