              45. When the mix gets too overly-complicated, add bongos.

              46. Rising white noise emphasising reverse cymbals.

              47. Falling white noise emphasising crash cymbals.

              48. Vocal samples that sound like there's a fan switched on between the vocalist and the microphone.

              49. That 'Woo!' vocal sample used in Butterfly Upswing Mix at the end of eery single damn bar.

                50) Whatever you do, DO NOT use the same synth beat the whole way through the song. Otherwise, I will murder you in your sleep.

                      56) Someone shouting cheesy phrases as loud as possible, like they believe they're in a packed club, not a recording booth. Read: Scooter ("Respect to the man in the ice-cream van!")

                          No

                          Most generic techno goes not have an arp, but an offbeat major bassline that is easily confused as an arp.
