Title: Techno Listeners
Post by: Intelligoth on January 11, 2004, 08:31:00 PM
Here's some stuff you might want to check out.  More Electronic Music than pure "Techno".

The Crystal Method - Vegas
Hallucinogen - The Lone Deranger
Paul Van Dyk - Seven Ways
Daft Punk - Da Funk
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Vol I
Hallucinogen - Twisted

These albums should get you off to a decent start if you want soundtrack-style music.  If you want a good foundation of Electronic Music in general, try the following:

The Orb - UFOrb
Kraftwerk - Computer World
Brian Eno - Music for Airports
Global Communication - 76:14
KLF - Chill Out

Try also Manuel Göttsching - E2:E4.  A ground breaking album from 1981.  


But he specifically asked for 'techno' - and mentioned the Blade soundtrack.   And even though 76:14 & KLF Chill Out are some of my favorite albums, I doubt the poster was looking for ambient smile.gif   I'd steer him in the direction of Dave Clarke - his 'Archive One' album from '96 is  a classic.   Also Jeff Mills' Live At The Liquid Rooms Tokyo.  Blindin' mix.  


A few good techno artists:

Mistress Barbara
Dave Clarke
Thomas Krome
Jesper Dahlback
The Advent
Vitalic


NOTE! These are pure techno artists - as I understand the genre 'techno'.   I left out trance and lighter stuff.  These are hardcore beatmeisters  - especially Vitalic.

A good idea would be to grab the first three Orbital albums if you like soundtracky stuff.  Can't go wrong with them.

No, but from the sound of what he was asking for, I figure he could use a good bake and trip out to KLF and Global while watching the VoodooLights screensaver! laugh.gif
