So guys, instead of discussion which countries you just fucking hate (??!!), let´s get back to the good old days of electronic music:
Which are your favourite British techno acts? Mine are off hand: * N-Joi(remember 'Adrenalin', 'Malfunction' and 'Mindflux'? Awe-fucking-some!!!)
* Prodigy ('Experience' rocks the big one!) * Baby D ('Deliverance' still finds its way to my turntables then and now)
* Altern8 (THE SPIRIT OF ´88!!!) * NRG ('Feel the Fury'!) * 808 State ('Ninety' opened my eyes) * The KLF (well, 'What Time is Love' and 'It´s Grim Up North' are killers. I found "The White Room' a bit of a letdown)

On the subject of old skool, anyone know where I can get a copy of the famous "aciiieed!" and "woo-yeah!" samples usd in 90% of old school techno? I want them at CD quality wav with no other backgound noise if possible. Cheers.

It was funny when the music industry started making those fake ass rave tracks that turn up on old school compilations now. Where is Bonzai and Ultra sonic? I don't think 'Time for trumpton' and 'smart-e' count as rave more like packaged pop rip offs. Remember the real old school not the charts crude interpretation.

The rhubarb and custard theme remix (and the bubble bobble one) were great "commercial rave" though :)

Ceri JC, I have got the Acieed shout pure in an acid-megamix from that time, but I hardly think you could get your hands on that old boiler!
Check out different mixes of D-Mob´s "We call it Acieed". You could get lucky!
Where is the "woo-yeah" shout heard?

I remember buying The Old Skool Masters album by Ratpack and Nicky Blackmarket which came out in 1998 for a friend who decided he wanted to get into early Techno and Drum'n'Bass. He loved it, I thought it was OK, end of story.
Worth a peep though.
