    Default 20 minutes to represent techno on Radio 1

    OK, I've just got a slot on Radio 1 next Saturday to 'represent techno in 20 minutes' - well, that's the brief anyway. Basically I've got till next Monday to do it.

    So, I was thinking how I would do this. Either I can bung together the usual 6 track mix that every other mofo does or get hot and sweaty in the studio over the next few days and do like an Ableton/Soundforge mash up of a silly amount of tracks that truly represents our genre.

    I really like the sound of option 2. So, here's the question:

    What are the tracks you would put in a mix like this? I'll try to bung as many of them in as possible as well as my own selection. Let me know you guys :cheese:

    i'd go for the mash up option with some well chosen cuts from the best tracks thru the years.

    1 track that i'd 100% put in would be

    mills - steps to enchantment (stringent) - this to me is the most "techno" track ever

    I'd say use Ableton / Soundforge to create a mini mix like the ones they have on Annie Mac's show. Mish mash of all the best bits of techno made into one 20 minute edit.

    I'd start in the 90s and try and move through the years, taking an example of as many styles as possible

    Would avoid mashups in favour of a DE9 style mix - loops or sections of dozens of tracks overlaid & in sequence.

    Yep! I agree with that.

    And working through time to modern day would be great, hearing how things have changed.

    Other tracks, the Punish with the Mistress Diana samples, and Killabite 1 & 2.

    I hope Paul Mac's reading this as his old skool mixes have been awesome. I'd love to hear his ideas for this Radio 1 thingy... :)

    This is exciting!! :rockin:
