yeah i've just been getting this together and i've realised 20 minutes really isnt alot of time at all. i would love to just pick one of my fave tracks from each of the years but i don't think that's going to work. what i'm thinking is i can progress in hardness over 20 minutes smoothly but once i start swapping and changing, especially later on, i'm noticing the mix becomes disjointed and has no point to or purpose to it (purely because you need time to be able to switch and go on musical journeys).

from what i've figured up to now (this is not ****in easy hahaha), i'm gonna start with early detroit stuff, then into belgian techno, then underground resistance punisher/balance of terror style then into the 4/4 distorted kick drum luke slater/uk/magnetic north stuff, then just progressively get harder (i think maybe the more busier surgeon stuff) then headroom, early wilson and end with todays harder techno. like a hard tribute to the techno world rather than start pulling out dark dark or even tribal shit (hopefully i can do that another time eh)...

i dunno, i think you can see where i'm going. keep the hard 4/4 element after the belgian thing to keep the mix rolling in the little time i have. i mean i could go all clever landstrumm vogaly aphex but it as that music is so complex anyway, swapping quickly would not go i don't think, well not in 20 minutes.

wow this is turning out to be quite a task! thanks for all your input so far.
