Live or mixed recordings? If live then it should be perfectly square AABB. If mixed, the only thing you can count on is 8-beat phrases. Also if mixed you need to listen in advance to know how long the intro is for the first phrase, and keep focus on which phrase you’re in somehow. 

The specific questions about demos and walk through, yes, sure, depends on the crowd. 

Ah, more specific questions!

- have you found on-the-floor demos doable at techno, or should I not even try?

- techno no-walk-through's: do they work?

Hey folks,

I haven't called all that many techno contras, and I'm slated to do so this weekend. Any tips or things to keep in mind about how techno differs from your standard contra evening? (Particularly curious about anything relating to dance choice and dance length.)

Cheers,

Maia
