Interesting post mate...
I'm really picky when it comes to techno, I only buy stuff that really grabs my attention. To be honets my techno collection only consists of about 30 records, all blinders in my opinoin as I normaly play them at the end of a hard trance set.
Love Kraemer and Podagl's work as well as Thomas Bruchscmit (Tom X), Dave the drummer and a little unsung hero called Jeff Amadeus
