Techno Anyone?


Does any body on this forum every listen to techno type music? I do a little and am amazed at how good some of it actually sounds and it also tends to be very adventurous. Or are most of you the Tech*NO* crowd which I would understand.

The new aphex twin album (Druqks - not sure about spelling) is really outstanding, blurring the borders between adventerous electronica and modern classical music (if such a distinction ever made sense).
Other good stuff, I recently listened to is Megashira, Bugge Wesseltoft (hard to come by in the US) and Trueby Trio (DJ Kicks).
seems like we are not talking about 'techno' in particular, but more about what some people might dub as 'electronica'.
so, i'd suggest photek, amon tobin, dj shadow, 4hero, K&D. not only do they usually sound pretty good (e.g. 4hero: two pages), but they also live up to a certain intellectual standard (wow, this sounds corny - not a native speaker, though).
