Any Techno fans out there?

Just thought of some names - iio? Is that how you spell it? I like alot of her stuff and let's see I like the song "as the rush comes" by motorcycle and "pon de replay" by that chic from Barbados.

as the rush comes is a classic song.

like two full moons and a trout by union jack.

techno is actually just beats and effects. None of the stuff mentioned is techno. Plastikman is awesome techno. I like one or two others.

most stuff here is trance. Trance is techno + melody. The rhythm and effects are diminished a bit and the emphasis is on melody.

House is techno+disco, which sounds a little trancey but the bass and beats are funkier and their are a lot of vocals. This starts to sound kind of gay in the worst examples, the most trite. DJ Sasha, the renaissance series and Farina are good inspired versions of this style. X-pander is a classic track.

Ambient techno is techno+ambient/experimental music. This is like Orbital, with the classic track belfast.

Modern trance like armin van buren, dj tiesto, Tales of the Unexpected vols 1 and 2 are good places to start.

Leftfield and IDM are the wierdo electronica/trance spin-offs. The most famous is Aphex twin. The best (as Flah pointed out elsewhere) is Autechre. Truly awesome. NOT uplifting at all.

I love trance.

It's like jazz man, takes a while to get into. That first listen is like a shock to the system, you don't know what's going on. Subsequent listens reveal more and more.
