J'ai toujours entendu dire que la Tecktonik était en fait une danse et non un style musical. Même si je vois très bien de quelle musique tu veux parler...

Oui, elle a été récupérée pour coller à l'identité du mouvement Tecktonik, mais je confirme que jamais il n'y a eu un genre musical qu'on a appelé Tecktonic, c'était juste une partie de la scène electro house en vigueur à l'époque qui s'y trouvait associée, mais sans jamais que ça devienne une"sous-mouvance" de celle-ci, il y a juste eu une association marketing.

Certains titres makina (souvent les plus intéressants !) flirtent avec des sonorités Hard Trance, mais ce n'est qu'une partie pas majoritaire de la production ; Moi je le vois comme le développement du fameux son Bakalao de Valence (les prods espagnoles du début des années 90) avec pas mal d'influences notamment de la scène rave écossaise du début des années 90, qu'on appelait aussi "bouncy techno".
