How about Mr. Velcro Fastener or Scape 1? Aril Brikha has made some cool electro tracks and so have other artists like The Advent, for example. I have an album from Dave Ellesmere and there are some really good electro tracks on there. BPitch Control has a whole roster of great electro artists and Electrix has also had some strong releases... There's a whole lot of great electro out there, I wonder why most tech-freaks ignore it? Maybe they get confused by the non-linear kick patterns? I agree that some (most?) techno crowds aren't open to electro, but it's my opinion that it's up to the DJ to educate the crowd, give them something new to dance to. After all, that's what a DJ is supposed to do, right? Always search for new music for the freaks to dance to?
