“No UFOs,” the song of the day today, is one of the first true techno songs, while Cybotron’s output has been more vaguely classed as “electro.” Techno is synthetic and electronic to the bone, sending out manufactured grooves at a steady, mechanical pace. “They say there is no hope/They say no UFO,” the vocal track intones. While UFOs––and cybernetics for that matter––are generally stock villains in American science fiction, the UFOs are more enigmatic here. Perhaps this is by necessity since there are so few words in the song, but the tentative “Maybe you’ll see them fly,” if anything, solidifies this ambiguity. UFOs are both hopeful and fearful symbols, invasive and yet undeniably compelling. In other words, they encapsulate the paranoid, almost fatalistic technological underpinnings of techno. Techno could probably have no fitter beginning than here." http://herecomeskabal.tumblr.com/ |
