How to convince someone about Techno?
From the magazine, proud #01, Page 32
  1. Buy a car.
  2. Whenever you drive home with your significant other, have a dark techno mixtape playing at full blast.
  3. Deny owning any other music.
  4. No breaks; if your passenger turns it down, subtly turn it back up with a phrase like: "Hey, listen to that sound, it sounds like you're in a submarine and someone's banging on the pipes!" and ignore their desperate expression.
  5. Now, take it a step further. Take your significant other to the right clubs. Don't start hardcore right away. First, a club that leans towards bastard pop. You should both drink enough to make it bearable. You have to persevere and keep encouraging them to stay. Pull an all-nighter, more or less, for a weekend.
  6. In between, always sprinkle in some positive experiences, like breakfast, sex, fruit, or something.
  7. But: don't give fluffy, light pop-electro too much power.
  8. Now it's time for techno. Another weekend, this time at least 40 hours of nonstop action.
  9. Now you give your significant other the car mixtape.
  10. Well done.
