In A Techno State of Mind

Hey PsyHeads...

 

I'm feeling in the mood for some bangin' hard techno, but just too new to the scene to know what to listen to

(Been Psy for long enough, I almost forgot about other music)

Anyone recommend me some "essential" or "must have" techno records?

Classic era to modern day is just fine by me.

I would really appreciate the suggestions.

 

Peace everyone

 

PsyON (or sometimes TechnoON)

21 hard techno albums I'd take on a desert island with me. Keep in mind that this list does not include any soulful, melody driven and subtle techno releases (such as Carl Craig, Kenny Larkin and the Warp releases) and it stays the f**k away from anything considered glitch, tech house, or minimal (the modern minimal). Not that I don't listen to that, I got heaps of that stuff as well, but the list below is where the action is! This is cerebreal and percussive. CD releases only (Lekebusch is an exception, but then again his double pack is divine!!!), there is waaaaay too much of this stuff on vinyl to remember.

Enjoy:

 

Jeff Mills- Waveform transmisson 1 (1992) (Tresor)

Jeff Mills- The other day (1997) (S3)

X 101- X 101 (1991) (Tresor)

Speedy J- Loudboxer (2002) (NovaMute)

Brother's Yard- Reaction (1999) (PV)

Regis- Penetration (2001) (Downwards)

V/A Evidence Downwards 1993-1997 (1999) (Downwards)

V/A Demagnetized (1996) (Magnetic North)

V/A Probe volume one (1992) (Probe Records)

Karl O'Connor & Peter Sutton- Againstnature (2000) (Tresor)

Joey Beltram- Places (1995) (Tresor)

Chris Liebing- Early works (2002) (Fine Audio Recordings)

Cari Lekebusch- For those who know (1996) (Hybrid Sound Architectures)

Morganistic- Fluids amniotic (1994) (Input Neuron Musique)

Sterac- Secret life of machines (1996) (100% Pure)

Gaiden- Walking on wires (2001) (Music Man Records)

Second Phase- Mentasm EP (1991) (R & S Records)

Tim Taylor & Dan Zamani- Planet of drums (1996) (Planet Of Drums)

The Hypnotist- The complete Hypnotist 91-92 - "Let Us Pray" (1992) (Rising High Records)

The Holy Ghost- The mind control of candy jones (1996) (Tresor)

Inigo Kennedy- The bigger picture (2001) (Missile Records)

 

...

Well, this is my input. The albums I listed have made my day so many times, I speak the truth! In fact, making this list made my lazy ass drag itself to the shelf and enhance this otherwise forgettable saturday evening. I hope you find some of these as enjoyable as I did!

Dude, you just made my day.

Thanks for taking the time to give valuable input.

I really appreciate it.

Now to search record stores and the internet to try and listen to some...
