yaeh i went to see jeff mills a few years back and it was niiice ;) i love the old WARP releases, and also the old crazy hardcore artists such as the reZerexion crew & bass generator... like the early prodigy stuff (up to and including jilted generation)...ummm...just stuff i heard when i went clubbing every weekend, which stopped about 4 years ago... |

808 State, Afrika Bambaata, and Kraftwerk were pretty much the first electronica artists ever. Also "Let Me Love You For Tonight" by Kariya is a very old classic vocal house song, and a personal favourite of mine. |

thanks forthe suggestions,keep churning them out! Deathsmith-thanks for the Kraftwerk reference!! I checked them out a while ago, and wasnt really impressed, but then I heard The Mix...really fresh update with gorgeous melodies....can tell how much they influenced Underworld. |

Get the "Tresor - True Spirit" Album, its a 3 CD set with some ol' techno shit. Some tracks like "MB feat Juan Atkins - Die Kosmischen Kuriere" are good, others are mediocre, some of em are pure horseshit...... Oh and check out the Output of the KNITEFORCE label, they were Breakbeat pioneers in the early ninties ! |

if you liked Kraftwerk, then check out some tangerine dream |

most of the older stuff came out on 12"s if you are talking about dance musci or techno - early stufff innovator by derrick may is a good comp of his stuff ... also on warp you can still get pioneers of the hypnotic groove that has some of the early singles on it - going back even further into the history before tha t- there is a great compilation called ohm the early gurus of electronic music with loads of the more avant garde stuff on - also for early house mr fingers is great even some of the disco stuff like larry levan dubby stuff is ace if your're willing to get over the gayness of it ...also kraftwerk of course are completley essential - esp computer world.. |

marlowe-tangerine dream is talented,ill give them that...but i couldnt really get into anything other than the Oasis album...theyre a bit too new-age for my tastes i spose. |

E2 - E4 by Manuel Göttsching ! This Track is Essential ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah that trsck has been reworked so many times - assueno latino - then again by derrik may and carl craig also by maurizio from basic channel - manuel goshing was ina krautrock band called theash ra temple - there is also a great band called neu whose first album rocks |

the only early 90s techno i listen to is orbital and underworld (and of course aphex twin and i'm listening to some early lfo lately), but i listen to a lot of 60s and 70s proto-techno on occasion too |

Defintely 808 State. Those guys are still good today. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have you heard their late 60s material? they have been thru many phases -- maybe you heard a release such as "the tyger" or "white eagle"? personally, i think "the tyger" sucks, but i love their early material, and some of their later basic synth-based material |

i love the first 808 state album :) also, tho not techno - but from the same time, the first stereo MCs LP i love |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
stereo mcs are the shit...hehe... get connected,who can forget it anyway,i downloaded a whole lot of tangerine dream albums about a year ago, and although there were some memorable tracks,i didnt really get into them that much, cept for the oasis soundtrack which has some beautiful stuff in there(summer storm) |

Love B12 time tourists oboy where to begin.. Hardfloor, DJ Hell, DJ Skull, Joey Beltram, Kozmik Messenger,Slam, Funk DeVoid, Tobias Schmidt, Neil Landstrum, Cristian Vogel, Cheap Knob Gags... Those Kickin Comps really rock..Techno Nations series is all killer no filler |

Stereo MC's..last album..Deep Down and Dirty..rocks like a motherfucker...it really is DEEP, DOWN and DIRTY..very live and organic sounding as opposed their early smooth grooves..which I also dig.. |

Ritchie Hawtin is Plastikman is FUSE! Detroit is Windsor! "And then I blew out the candle" |

||||||||
|
