Old Skool Techno Rave is a form of electronic dance music that took form in the early 90s. Stylistically, old skool techno rave is generally repetitive instrumental music, can include breakbeats, also shuffled drum machine patterns, old-school hoover sounds with the distinct techno synthesized melodies. The central rhythmic component is most often in common time (4/4), where time is marked with a bass drum on each quarter note pulse, a backbeat played by snare or clap on the second and fourth pulses of the bar, and an open hi-hat sounding every second eighth note. By the late 1980s and early 1990s, the original Detroit techno sound had garnered a large underground following in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. The growth of techno's popularity in Europe between 1988 and 1992 was largely due to the emergence of the rave scene and a thriving club culture. Producers from Detroit, frustrated by the lack of opportunity in their home country, looked to Europe for their future livelihood. This first wave of Detroit expatriates was soon joined by a number of up-and-coming artists, the so-called "second wave". Developments in American-produced techno between 1990 and 1992 fueled the expansion and eventual divergence of techno in Europe. Although eclipsed by Germany, Belgium was another focus of second-wave techno in this time period. The Ghent-based label R&S Records embraced harder-edged techno by "teenage prodigies" like Beltram and C.J. Bolland, releasing "tough, metallic tracks... with harsh, discordant synth lines.

Malfunktion by Kinay is driven by a strong, relentless rhythm – precise, hard, almost machine-like. Yet above this raw energy float soft pads, acting as a counterweight: warm, breathing, fragile. Between these two poles unfold glitches and disturbances, fragmenting the sound without ever fully breaking it.
What emerges is a constant tension – a balance of control and chaos, structure and drift. Each repetition carries small fractures, each detail feels like the echo of a larger disruption.
Malfunktion is not an outburst but a process: a state of endurance, of being continuously propelled forward. Rhythm as engine, pads as breath, noise as the reminder that perfection is always fragile.

Loved DJing back in the 90s and early 2000s, as well as raving, when I was dropping those badass tunes! amongst other things! ☺ Now I'm very content in just listening to many genres of music. Why limit yourself to one particular genre when there's so much to discover and love, and also rediscover and love even more? Don't brand yourself! let loose, feel the boundless vibe of life! ☺ Enjoy guys! ♥  d(∩_∩)b
