Being a Techno Artist Today

I see techno movement as some kind of continuum of cultural, human and technological aspects. Feeling the power of a techno crowd gives you a lot of energy, like a little extra edge, and it adds up sudden thrill the entire experience. As someone could say, techno is not only a music genre, it’s a state of mind, full of intensity. Sometimes playing lots of gigs in a short period can bring a lot of anxiety, and the only way to go through it is not dealing with it, but letting it be and pass by its own. Success never comes without its challenges: it’s difficult for every artist to express talent in this industry. That’s why some of the best techno artists around the globe are always ready to support talented people of all sorts. Being an artist and trying to be successful… it causes a lot of effort.

Look at the greatest artists. Can you say that any of them had an easy life? Was everything brought them on a plate? Absolutely not. Some of them sacrificed their whole life, literally. This kind of glittery aspect of being good and famous hides a hard work that many artists did before getting to where they are today. It’s just very hard, but when they achieved their goal, they were happy to dedicate their life to what they love most: music. They can be the main inspiration for everyone in our industry, because talent has to be expressed, not chained.
