Surprised no one's mentioned the following,

Recloose,
Microworld,
Loius Haiman,
Aril Brikha,
Kenny Larkin,
The Detroit Escalator Co,
Luke Slater (7th Plain, Early stuff)
Dave Angel,
Ian O Brien.

For my money though the best Model 500 record was the I Wanna Be There double pack on R+S from a few years back, there was also a 12" on the label offshoot Apollo records which i can't remember the name of, i'll dig it out and check. They are two of the mightiest M500 records ever.

Wholeheartedly agree with the Black Dog and there offshoots, Plaid, Merck, Balil etc. Half my Techno collection is made up of their stuff. Saw 'em live on the artificial intelligence all nighter years ago. managed to get in early and they were warming up/soundchecking. Bloody awesome sound, i still get goose bumps thinking about that..

I've still got the Can You Feel It 12" from Jack Trax.... Only thing I have back from that era.

So funny walking into Sister Ray the other day and they were playing that. Total classic. Even funnier to think the person I was with had never bought a record in his life!! I wasn't even gonna ask him if he new the track. I'm such a musical snob.

I was around my step bros goin back to back on the wheels of steel and he only went and whipped out a Kevin Suanderson remix of Jimmy Summerville it was a fuckin killer track. All those guys Reece, Juan knew the score.

Personal Faves, Knight of the Jagguar by DJ Ronaldo, Insperation by UR.

I'm pretty sure that that remix is not Jimmy Somerville. It's a remix of an old Disco record by Sylvester. Somerville did do a cover though.
It is a cracking tune.
DJ Rolando is an absolute genius as well.
