    i think "good life" is still the best-selling techno record of all time, though i'm not sure anymore. someone must keep a record of these things...

    i also think one of the purpose maker/axis records, they're well known.
    And they have a website where you can buy them all which is running for ages it seems.

    Blue Monday is the top selling 12" of all time. Though Im nut sure if it falls under the genre of techno.

    The most copies of one record I have bought because of thieving bastards at parties is 3 copies of Chris Liberator's LP Set Fire :cry: don't let anybody but my two best mates play my tunes now.

    ...and going by my bank balance you boys do okay too :) I'd love to be able to give up the day job to write techno. But Henry I have to admire the volume of work you do in terms of tunes, playing both free and commercial nights, and contributions to BOA. word.

    It could be many, I figure Hardfloor's acperience, Dj Misha Access, Green Velvet Flash...

    These have been remixed to death thus creating more wanga for the people on the receiving end.

    I suppose Underworld's Born Slippy as well paid off bigtime for them as well..
