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.

There is a delerium mix of a Sarah Machlachlan song which I love and I just found a Paul Oakenfold remix of a U2 song! I was excited to say the least, two of my favorite performers at once.
Has anybody heard of Global Underground, they are an orginzation that has TONS of DJ's and different catagories(Prototype, Nubreed and the original "numbered/location" series) I have around 150 techno discs and most of them are good-excellent. My Fav's would be ATB, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyck, Orbital, Jason Dunne, kernkraft 400, Uberzone(there is suppose to be 2 dots over the U in Uberzone but I do not know how to do that with this keyboard),Brian Eno, Anthony Pappa, Hybrid, Alice DJ, Bt and Webster Hall. I better end the list here but it could go on. Keep the favorites coming we might all learn something from them, thanks, :>)Tim
Heh techno folks check out Daft Punk's most resent release it is GREAT. Old school techno at it's best.
Yes indeed Plaid's Double Figure is GREAT!! Just picked it up a few days ago and still listening to it all the time. Dare I say sounds similiar to Kid A, with a little more bass, hahahaha. Very good though worth checking out if you don't already have it.
Thought I would bring this thread back up to the top, just listened to Orbital's "snivilsation" what a great disc!! Haven't listened to it in a long time.
Nilthepill-Haven't bought much new techno though I have bought some older stuff am I am really(and don't laugh) enjoying Velvet Acid Christ "Fun with Knives" very dark and terra damnata'esque, of course Hybrid "Wide Angle", vocal with light ambient background, also Gatercrasher "discotech generation", sort of typical beats, very listenable and captivating. I am still trying to find something by Goldfrapp, no one here has a freaking clue, I am surrounded by a bunch of freaking idiots!

btw did you mean Orbital "In Sides" or is "Both sides" something I haven't heard of yet? I was dissapointed with "middle of know where" I think most orbital fans were. Also if you get a chance check out XM satelite radio there is a dance channel that is quiet good, it will be appearant :)
New moby how many have heard it and what do you think? I think it is a great follow to Play.
Anyone looking to get into techno or looking for new techno get a hold of the member Trancehits here at audiogon, he has tons of great mixes and artists, I got my first order the other day and can't wait to get more!! Very reasonibly priced which makes it even better :)
