Yeah, I've heard of these tales before.
I saw the premiere of his new show 2 months back, there's no way he fucks something like that up though.
If he mixes his usual techno material what could be the reason he fucks up?
I mean, he has tons of experience.

More excited about Moodymann and DVS1 anyway

(edit: guess it's just trying too complex mixes etc.. Or something like not turning his back to his own mistakes.
He's a bit quirky when it comes to stuff like that)

[Jurrecane]

Heading to a 90s party in a venue nearby..
Same venue which has Len Faki in februari though, that should be big :O

[NickUndercover]

DVS1 never disappoints.

Scope, if you like Ben Klock definitely check out the big berlin acts, Peter Van Hoesen, Norman Nodge, Jonas Kopp or labels like Stroboscopic Artefacts,...

I've never been a huge Jeff Mills fan apart from the classics but since he's from Detroit I'd say Derrick May, Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance, Rob Hood/Floorplan, Drexciya etc

Also posting some stuff I've been hearing lately:

[Mehlovich]

just bought this


can't fucking wait to drop it!!!

oh and this too

[Dub_freak]

So i'm really new to techno but i've recently fell in love with Blawan, can someone recommend similar artists?

[NickUndercover]

CTRLS, Forward Strategy Group, MPIA3, Surgeon, Regis, Radial ?

Couldn't tell you any artist who sounds exactly like Blawan but here's some ppl he plays regularly. Maybe try digging into Birmingham techno

Dave Clarke (Skint) @ Subject at POGO, The Twisted Pepper Dublin (22.12.2012) FULL SET

Dave Clarke is an English techno DJ, producer and radio presenter, often given the title: The Baron of Techno. In the late 1980s, Clarke used to write reviews for a few UK magazines, such as Mixmag Update, Generator and ID, and was the first to review Aphex Twin.
In the 1990s, he began producing and releasing music using the moniker ‘Hardcore’. This project was subsequently licensed to the Belgian label R&S, enabling Clarke to be one of the first UK based artists to record in the R&S studio in Ghent, and get signed by the label.

He’s also built up his White Noise radio show on the Dutch station 3FM, interviewing artists ranging from John Foxx to Coldcut to Broken Social Scene but the thrust of the show is still to cast light on exciting new music “The most important point is to air music that other stations and DJs don’t have the power to,” he says, “music that wouldn’t normally be given a chance. I can just go where I want with it although it’s still 99% techno and electro.” The same applies to his White Noise label. Emphatically not a vanity project for his own releases, it has instead hosted boutique vinyl pressings (alongside the usual digital fare) for gleaming new material by artists such as Frank Kusserov, Noirdegout, Woody McBride, Marco Bernadi, Terence Fixmer and The Hacker. These and other tunes will be chopped, hammered, filleted and turned on their heads during Clarke’s DJ sets. That’s where he comes alive, where skills honed for years blow venues apart. A 2009 highlight, for instance, was the fifteenth birthday party of FUSE, the Brussels club where his standing is second-to-none, where he’s developed an extraordinary relationship with the crowd. He speaks of it with his breath catching, as thrilled as ever by the ride the music takes him on. “I love having a crowd absolutely hanging by a thread, completely gripped,” he announces passionately, “I often say to myself in the middle of a set, ‘I ****ing love my job’.” It’s true. He really does. And it shows.

Haha!
Blawan's style is so unique that it's too obvious when people imitate him.

That first Clouds track is just like "I like 2-step, acid is kinda cool, and I also heard Blawan style techno is the shit nowadays... I'll make a track of the three".
Is it just me or is the UK scene more susceptible to trends than other club scenes? Starting to get on my nerves.

yeh rite u dickheads with laptops
fuck u all
wankers

^^ for what its worth, XLR8R broke dubstep. u knew that right? the very word "dubstep" as well. ironic hence this forum topic, & the bitching there of in.


back in the day 1994 - when I first encountred the zine - XLR8R was just a free newsprint rave zine from Seattle. They covered TECHNO when not many other outlets did. once again, ironic of your post bitching in a TECHNO thread, on a dubstep forum. both strains that XLR8R have had much of a history with stateside for sure.

I'm not lauding or dissing either way, but from being a reader of XLR8R when it was just a free zine found in local record shops back then, its influence cannot be denied.

I learned who Larry Heard was reading XLR8R back in the day. And Stacey Pullen.. and.. Octave One, .. and Jay Denham.. and and... just sayin. in the states, particularly on the westcoast (Canada too), zines like XLR8R have always spread the word. that's just how shit was.
