the "is joey beltram the father of hard techno" tangent on the "local" thread made me wonder what tracks got people into hard techno...the possibilities are huge, so maybe people limit to 5 or fewer?
...for me those would be:
F.U.S.E. - "substance abuse"
jeff mills - "reverting"
joey beltram - "energy flash"
surgeon - "badger bite"
red planet - "journey to the martian polar cap"
Sielwolf - Beweglich Animalisch
Ministry - Stigmata
The Young Gods - Gasoline Man
Aphex Twin - Didgereedoo
Front 242 Headhunter
brutal, beautiful track...Quote:

HOLD ON::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
All the trax you've all mentioned are unbelievable --------------------
Surely this is subjective ??
I could mention so many.
But the fact is UR and Belgium really created hard techno.
Again, subjective hahahahahaha.
Keep listing your faves ;)
Fantastic topic. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
It`s not about who created it, it`s what got you into hard techno.
I skipped the whole roots of techno and came in via harsh industrial electronica, ebm, electro, metal and industrial.
Autonation - sit on the bass (RNS)
Tricky Disco - Tricky Disco (warp)
Lost - technofunk (perfecto)
Charles B - lack of love
zsa zsa la boum - something scary
Almost anything on hithouse especially problem house, meng syndicate and holy noise
and yes, its an unfair thread as there are so many records that deserve proper credit but.....hmm, maybe i'll get another username and sneak on later with some more....
yeah, i meant this as more of personal list of what hard techno tracks were the most important to everyone, rather than a "who started hard techno" thread...that one got beat to death recently ;)Quote:

ok, 'hard techno' influences:
jeff mills - reverting
surgeon - magneze (the whole ep)
Jamie Lidell - Freakin the frame
Robert Armani and Paul johnson on dancemania
Neil landstrumm - all the peacefrog eps and lp
A good percentage of hard techno today traces back to Mills and UR, definitely.Quote:

oh...woody mcbride basketball heroes and paul birken speakerfreakin ep's on communique... both must haves.
CJ Bolland - Horsepower
Jeff Mills - Berlin
Adam Beyer - Protechtion
Thomas Heckmann - Phosphene
Planetary Assault Systems - Coad Warrior Series
Phew, I'll probably be back with another 5 in a few minutes :)
Oh, just forgot... this the "most influential" to me, not a top 5... Hmm, better do a rain check on that one :doh: Not sure if I could answer that question to be honest..Quote:

Cevin Fisher- The Freaks Come Out 2000mix
lil louis- french kiss

cj boland- the prophet
Most influential for going to parties... and really getting into techno that would be somthing like discipline... (beyer)... or bitches from hell.. (krome..) really used to be into the swedish stuff a couple of years ago...

Pac Man Fever...1982 First cassette tape I bought and just hearing those weird video game noises started the downfall.
Hmm in terms of first getting me into techno
LFO - we are back
Misjah & Tim - Access
Empirion - Narcotic Influence [****ing TUNE!!]
Slam - Positive Education
But most influential, in terms of shaping the sound I love the most, it's gotta be Landstrumms Brown By August LP, if pushed for a specific track, Tension in New York
Its more of a label thing for me
I have been influenced and first started buying techno labels like - Drumcode - Compound and my fave label still Tresor
Erm I cant realy think of one perticular track at the moment.
Maybe is it called "The South Operations ep by Slobadn on Compound (I think thats what its called,im shit with record names)
or shit whats the name of the Headroom LP on Planetrythm.
Or maybe Surgeons "Intro"
T Krome-Woodcarvers nightmare on Korb
And James Ruskin-Version on Tresor
All tracks that spring to mind
Infact That 4Kossivo LP has been in my best pile since the day it was lent to me(shit I should give that back realy I suppose)
Adam Beyer - Drumcode 2
Surgeon - Magneze
Planetary Assoult Systems - Voodoo
CJ Bolland - Spring Yard
Outline - Encounter
You can still drop that now and it would kill a crowdQuote:

Come to think of it since all these tunes are on this mix cd I may as well just say that Jeff Mills' live at the liquid room got me into hard techno!! :lol:
Dope track, this and his bitches from hell re-work.Quote:
