I've listed to loads of their podcasts and they don't play minimal, IMO?? It's bouncy and driving. Nothing like Hawtin or Liebing. Why do you think they are minimal?
I've listened to two and they were playing what I'd have classified as minimal when I listened to a lot of techno quite some years ago.

See I disagree, the play awesome bouncy kind of sets (I've listened to almost all of their podcasts, totally love these guys). Maybe, technically, they are classed as minimal but they remind me of Capriati and older Beyer stuff, which I don't class as minimal. All I know, I love their style and would happily go and see them over Hawtin If they were clashing.

I'm not arguing they don't play driving sets - imo you can have driving, minimal techno. I'm just not sure I'd classify the two sets of theirs I've heard as 'bouncy techno'.
I'm just surprised as I thought you didn't like "minimal techno"
Skip-Listening to the one you linked a couple of posts up: it's a bit pacier and upbeat than the other sets.
