I've noticed this thread reads a lot more like "Talkin wit yerself about Techno". I'll try a bit more to actually discuss something here.

What a techno weekend! Was at tresor friday catching Adam X, Ancient Methods and the superb live set from Orphx and going to Berghain in a few hours for Mulero, Shifted, Sigha and Kobosil

Yeah, Adam X was a huge influence on many of the people in your long list of artists. How was he in this setting?
Heard an Ancient Methods mix online--he kills it. One of my favorites.
Heard Sigha play Berghain. It was one of the purest high quality sets I've heard in a while. His sets I've heard lately with Shifted seem more "banging" in a populist way but I still have faith in him. How was his set?

Yes, this is no stretch for me. This is Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus (Basic Channel)They are a real reference in european minimal techno. They go back in the early 90s, together with the innovators from Detroit.

YES.
You would think with this major influence you'd hear more credit given and less instance of shameless copying of their style occurring every 3-5 years. LOL.
Perhaps its their desire to mimic Detroit's anti-fame stance that makes it easier for copycats to get away with murder.
This anti-fame stance makes it a surprise that this may be the first time I've seen mention of them here?

one of the best labels out there at the moment, sound experimentation to the max

Nice post! Would love to see this thread move away from the industrial sound more often.

You are on a forum for business goths, comes with the territory.

I agree, its strange that no one mention this reference earlier. Maybe it has something to do with todays fast listening of new music? No time to digg in history.

Agree re hessle audio. I think I've mentioned the label a while back. Anyway the compilations from last year serve as a good introduction. Not sure there's been a lack of non-industrial influenced techno as we've had some discussion about Hyperdub artists and Giegling, too - both labels can be heard this weekend in Berlin as a small heads-up, the latter together with raster-noton.

On that note Lakker has a new podcast on ra (the series has been on roll lately). Haven't listened to it yet but the tracklist looks promising . Aphex, autechre, squarepusher & j dilla etc.

Not exactly techno, but still great:

Err I think it's more that everyone who knows knows, basic channel is kind of techno 101?

Nice analogue'ish touch on the beats and subtile filter-movements on the synth, overall an interesting oldschool-acidhouse-vibe, third synthchordsound later (at about 2:20min) sounds a lil' bit detuned, but on the other hand it gives an interesting vibe. Just missing a naughty bassline, could spice the track up. Like it so far, curious how the final one will sound.

Inofficial lil' remix i did already 'bout 3 years ago:
