90s techno thread

i’d recommend the facebook group ‘real techno’ recently started by jim masters, darren emerson and others - they’ve set up a youtube channel which automatically aggregates clips posted in the group too

already in it, Jim's a mate.
 
I'm not sure if this really goes here, but it's not really house music either so I guess it might as well do. It's been on repeat all afternoon anyway, early 90s Derrick Carter...

That’s amazing, haven’t heard that before. It sounds more UK than Chicago. Those strings give it a dubstep/grime tension, but there’s so many other layers
 
Just had a discogs dive and that’s off an album which I shall now listen to, but I do know that Tripping Among The Stars tune which is also ace, so have great expectations.
Carter has done similar stuff like this before:

I picked up the album from the carboot sale years ago, but never really listened beyond the epic opening track before (which is also really good) - shame cause the rest of it is brilliant. That's the high point though.

Tripping Among The Stars is the opener, and is glorious (and is definitely not techno, but hell.)

 
ha! we were basically posting the same thing.

there's a few really nice gnarly acid house trax on the LP too which I reckon you'll be into.
 
Not sure where else to put this but the building that hosted my beloved Orbit nightclub, "the 'Graceland' of 90’s Electronic dance music" ( 🤣 ) faces demolition:
:(
I think some former patrons have a started a futile kickstarter to buy it

Hope some of the former DJs will throw some money at it. Haven't read the article yet, but can imagine the futility you mention.

Downloaded a big folder of what looked like interesting tunes and it had this comp in it
Woops! Just about to hit delete but spotted some interesting contributors - in fact its got a couple of nice (ambient)techno bits in amongst it - seemingly exclusive to the comp. Worth a dig

I always like the Pluto tune on that:


I've got a fondness for that comp. Coming home from a Megatripolis allnighter at Bagleys in 1994, while we were both still very much on acid, my mate bought a copy of that at the station while we waited for the train home. It was the soundtrack to our acid comedown while we waited for the possibility of sleep to materialize :)
