Post your Favorite Techno Songs


Recommended Posts

Green Velvet - Flash is my favourite techno track with DJ Dan Needle Damage in a close second.. Do you mean techno or does that mean 'general dance' where you're from as it's a completely seperate genre here in the UK and people have been posting track names that definitely aren't what we call techno.

If you mean general dance music my fav track of all time is Circulation - Purple - the b side - that bass kick hurts!!!!

To me techno is the music derived from the chicago underground and pioneered by more underground nights here in the UK and in chicago.

I have over 50 Techno tracks in my vinyl collection and think it's a gr8 style to mix. I also love house, tech house, funky house and electro. I hate hard house, trance and almost anything that ever makes it into the charts!!

I also love dancing the night away :evil:

yeh i have to agree with u - i didnt really want to comment - but 'techno' is actually a very specific genre, born from Kraftwerk then thru Detroit... Some of the tracks ppl are talking about may have elements of Techno in them, but they are not really Techno...

yeh Green Velvet is cool... - that song about being abducted by aliens lol...

Some improtant figures in Techno:

Juan Atkins

Kevin 'Reese' Saunderson

Derrick May

Eddie 'Flashin' Flowkes

oh yeh and also I have to say that the term 'Hardhouse' annoys me a bit, cos when I was buyin my vinyl, if i said hardhouse i meant 'hard-house' as in slow but heavy, funky 4/4 beats. That crap that they call 'hardhouse' now is more descendent from dodgy euro-trance and bad hardcore (i do like good hardcore), and has nothing to do with house... It also isnt particularly hard, as althou the bpm's are pretty high (but nothing compared to Gabba), the bass drums arent very bassy or overdriven at all....

Also i used to really like the German label 'Harthouse', and there music was nothing like that stuff around now...

anyway enuff of my rant lol :s

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
    • Microsoft, totally not confusing /s 25H2 - Current for non-Arm based Windows 26H1 - Current for Arm based Windows 26H2 - Only for non Arm Windows
    • After I installed those, my older but capable Win 11 laptop (16GB RAM) reported it as 26H2 26300.8697. Then I installed it on my big laptop (128GB RAM! Hehe sorry), it reported it as 25H2 26220.8690. Ugh. Do I have to switch Insiders channels from Release to Beta?
