The new Robert Hood 12" is ace too
The stuff coming out of the UK is pretty heavy I reckon, stuff like Blawan and A Made Up Sound is seriously punchy
And this recent number -

Why? A lot of those labels were moving in different directions anyways. Besides, the last few dubstep shows I tried to go to, these "former" dubstep people all played techno and house.
I actually welcome the fusions.

Because I'm seeing well known techno guys releasing on dubstep labels like it's normal.
Scenes have blended together so much, I don't even understand how it happened. (Half my mixes are just dubstep slammed together with techno though, so whatever)

Fuck scenes anyways. All about the masses who just collectively listen to and share good music
Unfortunately, I only know one other person, (a friend luckily) who's into good edm music. So basically most of my nights out end up being at those typical scene nights

I always liked this release, couldn't find a youtube video for it though:
Also, not sure if he's actually techno or not, but I've always loved this tune by Len Faki:
Edit:
Also, Kollektiv Turmstrasse are brilliant. Again, it's not 4 to the floor, so I'm not sure if it's techno or more generalized electronic, but brilliant none the less!

I never want to call stuff by Blawan and that techno in fear of getting flamed by some elitist but when people ask me what music I listen to techno is actually a much better reference point for the majority of stuff I listen to than dubstep or just bass.
