Makaton

Andrew Wooden, Mahatma...... :clap:

Patrick Skoog - Huge amount of releases in 2003, the guy is on the roll...

Henry Cullen - I've knew that sooner or later he would progress into more pure sound, most of his acid releases had this pure techno edge - always my favorite - since the old Smitten days. Hydraulix 1 and 9 are a perfect example that this guy has a massive potential. ;)

These are the two that are really catching my attention at the moment. I love all driving and very energetic tracks, I'm not into blimpy or lulluby techno, shit that comes out on Blueprint etc... (no offense to Surgeon, Ruskin fans.)

you really hit the nail on the head with that one. the search for purity is self-defeating. nothing exists in a vacuum.

There needs to be more focus on the individual in techno rather than having them pump out what is expected.

You speak my mind bruvver. Pureists can really push a producer into a box, and effectively kill there creativity.
