Anyone know any good techno (dance music) compilations? Ya know, the kind the EEs at Brass Rail are always dancing too?
Mark Oliver's Saturday night at the Guvernment is an institution with one of the best sound systems in North America. No distortion at extremely high volumes. I don't think we could attract heavy weights like A v Buuren without this venue.raverboy said:Mark Oliver (Toronto)
I wish I could have gone to DEMF/Movement. Its always been tough for me to get a few days off to head on down.raverboy said:Nice to see how some of you have truly good taste
UMustang: I like your shortlist. Good to see someone else who's a little more 'oldschool'! With names like that, were you at Movement last year (DEMF)?
I'd say older tunes from, as already mentioned, PVD, Tiesto, and especially Ferry Corsten. I remember the first time I heard Goureyella at Pro Cafe from a set ( peeler's set that is ) by some Czech girl, Paula, I believe that was ... the music just sent chills down my spine.Keebler Elf said:the kind the EEs at Brass Rail are always dancing too?
Sasha and John Digweed's live tour CD's are good. They have a few out.Keebler Elf said:Anyone know any good techno (dance music) compilations? Ya know, the kind the EEs at Brass Rail are always dancing too?
Decent list u have. Personally like the last 4 you have. Saw Jeff Mills live, can't say i'm impressed, sounds just like his CD's. Stacey Pullen is AWSOME!!! And don't forget Plastikman a.k.a Ritchie Hawtin in his early years. More of a techno and house guy myself. Not really into euro techno. Sounds fake and cheap (no offence). For house, i prefer more of a new york sound like Harry the bastard, Kevin Yost, Hed kandi, Blue six and todd terry. Now thats groovin'UMustang said:I'm with Esco, this stuff is pretty much all I listen to
Good torrent site for it...www.themixingbowl.org. Soulseek is another great resource www.slsknet.org
DJs I listen to :
Deep Dish (house/progressive)
John Digweed (house/techno/progressive)
Erick Morillo (and pretty much anything put out on the Subliminal Label) (house)
Sasha (his older stuff, and newest stuff, but I stay away from 2002-2004) (house/trance/progressive)
Tiesto (again, not his most recent stuff) (trance)
Radio Soulwax (house)
Danny Tenaglia (house)
Felix Da Houscatt (house)
Dave Clarke (techno)
Agoria (techno)
Derrick May (house, and one of the techno godfathers)
Juan Atkins (techno, another techno godfather)
Jeff Mills (techno, same school as May and Atkins)
Stacey Pullen (house/techno, apprentice of May/Atkins and Saunderson, the Detroit Techno GODS)
Global Underground is a good series of discs. A little more proggy, but some good stuff (#25 is GREAT....Deep Dish in Toronto. They played at Guvernment twice, once for the inpiration party, once for the release party, and both were KILLER nights)
