Are you fucking kidding me?

*promote *obscure

Yeah I heard this back around 1997, but come on Ishkur still no Ricardo Villalobos or Richie Hawtin under Minimal techno?

This was how I fell in love with Detroit techno, I heard Jeff Mill's the bells on this and a few years later I saw Jeff Mills playing at Aria in Montreal

PS: I hardly understand or use musical labels

Am so glad someone else is posting some Richie Hawtin.

Goes really well with Richie Hawtin.

I have been using AC-3 encodes for my Pink Floyd and Richie Hawtin records for playback over 5.1 DDs and I love it. The audio fidelity is just unmatched.

Though still even now I love to play vinyl on needles, there is nothing that replaces the warmth of sound that gives my ears.

agree with farhad, on the difficulty, and for the most part on the groups he chose. That's why I tried to go for essentials rather than favourites... as for my desert island picks..

portishead
j.s. bach
astral projection
shpongle
richie hawtin

come to mind right away.... i don't know... more thought required....

If I was to be stranded these are some of the artists I would want to have on my MP3 Player.

Richie Hawtin
Pink Floyd
The Orb
Portishead
Opeth
Mum
Andres Segovia
Erik Satie
Rob The Viking
Air

However this is inherently hard for me since I love alot of music to begin with.

Richie Hawtin FTW!!!

And this is one of my favorite sections of DE9

EDIT: This clip is fornicating with my brain...
