House uses samples and sounds from instruments. Techno looks for unique and syncopated sounds in the machines. House is lighter and like Disco and Soul. Techno is harder, darker, sharper, futuristic and like Funk.
I recently spoke with Mauro Picotto, when I drove him to an event, and he was also very adamant about Melodic Techno being Trance. Other than that, I also love this quote by Solarstone from 2019 on X: "‘Melodic Techno’ is deep trance with a more palatable name for snobs." So the trance DJs have spoken 🤪
