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
