Techno began and ended at the orbit

Been caning likemind 01 and 04 tonight, killer records.


Some of the CCNot and Aurora Halal stuff is hitting that lush post-detroit spot for me these days (though not UK...)

 

[ManchesterBeth]

i struggle to call jumping up and down on the spot dancing.

Nazi marching, more like.

Dancing should involve your hips, torso, knees, shoulders, arms, booty...

Looking back at this list and that love story record is awfully dated. Tribal loop house bangers and ostgut style austere dourness is why I don't go to most techno nights outside of London.

From the 00s I would have gone for this record.

more mosquito goodness.

Tobias Schmidt still producing ecstatically joyful UK techno CC Orang Utan stethoscope.

 

[ManchesterBeth]

And not forgetting this classic.

 

[ManchesterBeth]

And of course afx-y techno electro hybrids from Monolith a plenty.

Nuron was the unsung hero of UK ambient techno. he only ever made 10 tracks. all brilliant.

This shuffle-y chugger has never left my cd case. afterparty bomb. So many house producers try to badly imitate this in 2015. They're never successful.

 

[Mattym]

Great track and this off the same EP


I would find it hard not to include Quoth in the list.

Yes, that is a choon.

Also, someone calling themselves Nuron had an EP out a couple of years ago. Doesn't sound anything like the other stuff though, so I presume its a different person.
