I really don't know much about the scene, but seems lately most the people adding me on the myspace have been from France...interesting...maybe I should look more into things there as well...
dont get me wrong im well into wot Andreas Kremer is doing aswell these days a lot of 303 aswell in his stuff. I like an artist called Baz-Dee aswell.
good artists in Britain but output is non-existant these days imo
lots of real dodgy hardcore techno, some good stuff too of course
yes mate a lot of dodgy stuff, but they seem to be more up for it?Quote:

Went to a few french clubs. Great crowds, always felt a bit like nobody knew what was happening though. They'd shout and scream at every breakdown and buildup, but they'd miss 'big tunes' or classics and lots of stuff that would have got a big response in the UK got nothing in France.Quote:

Dj Teknos, Impact-Teknokrates sound system, Wath Your Back CD 2003.
72 mins.
interesting studio mix. it's divided in 4 parts with short 'interludes', showcasing variations of techno. starts with some lovely acid techno on a trancy tip, works up to the harder 'schranz' techno. Nice but the best is the last part, industrial techno of the like of the regreted Double Face and finishes off with that amazing 'once upon in the west' techno track.

Typical french style techno selecta and speed http://www.squatjuice.com/phpBB2/ima...les/smiley.gif from the sound system responsible for the first 'hardtek' labels, Perce Oreille and Passe Muraille, later known as Expressillon. Don't expect hardtek here tho, this is techno.
