classics in techno - one night in nyc

[blistanbul]

yeah lads what i meant was do classics of techno stand the test of time and wanted few people to post few favourite of theirs.

i definitely think the horrorist was trying to bring a pop angle to techno song.
i personally laughed and enjoyed some of his tunes from that album.

anyways i've listed jeff mills the bells, dj roland knight of the jaguar, one night in nyc as it is considered one of the tunes from that era.

you can post joey baltram energy flash, or aphex twin windowlicker.

i definitely think aphex twin's early to mid work stands the test of time.

still sounds beautifully crafted to this day.

one night in nyc as it is considered one of the tunes from that era.

by whom exactly?

seriously, the tune's gash man, when was it released? '96?

if you want a real classic from that era try:

YouTube - Surgeon - Magneze

Oddly, it is normally one of the tracks which non-Techno heads quote at you as being a "classic". It's happened a few times at house parties etc when I've been chatting to someone and I say I listen to Techno. If they know anything about it at all, they always seem to mention Dave Clarke, Plastikman, maybe Green Velvet and tracks like "One night in NYC." I dunno if these are the types of thing which NME etc might mention from time to time, and hence folks know them. One night in NYC seems to be fairly known among non-Techno fans, but you hardly ever hear of Techno fans talking about it (if anything, they prefer One night in Hackney!)

You have a very narrow vision of techno mate.

Green Velvet, Dave Clarke, Plastikman are not Techno?

I mention that song because it is a popular classic.

I really enjoyed the horrorist LP. Knew it was more of a pop end of techno but good nonetheless.

Will sell it for 500 squids easy for you.

Uhh, of course Dave Clarke etc are Techno. I used them as examples of more commonly known Techno artists so it stands to reason that I am labelling them as Techno, ha ha!

As far as The Horrorist goes, I find him hit and miss, but he has done some great tracks. Have you listened to "Flesh is the Fever" yet? What did you think?

yeah i have.

some of his lyrics are very juvenile but like i said they were angling for the pop crowd.

a lot of people like adam x post horrorist work.
