"Old school dubstep, very dark and moody...pretty much pointless listening to with a subwoofer " Skream's very first album | |||
"Loved jungle, trip hop, anything from dj rap to massive attack. Liked depeche mode and new order as a youth" Jungle! Remember those old 8 cassette packs, those we're the days haha | |||

"Grew up on it and, although my taste has diversified, I'm still loyal to it to the last. When I started listening to it everyone thought I was listening to crud, then everyone thought it was brilliant, then everyone thinks it's crud again. The sign of a true fan is if it lives in your blood and you're not swayed by fads " Well said! I kinda like listening to what I like and not the mainstream, feels real personal that way. | |||

"Is my passion do listen to electronic music in various forms from acid house to techno to house and some hard style techno too " Cool, I used to be well into my hard techno but have mellowed down now comes with age I suppose haha | |||
"Its quite mad how the mainstream once upon a time frowned upon electronic music and now it is deemed cool to listen to it. Look at how it has flooded the radio one playlist....." Yup, it has changed a lot, not a big fan of the more commercial offerings though. | |||

Yup, it has changed a lot, not a big fan of the more commercial offerings though." Me neither you look at the direction that some of the big names have gone compared to how they first started out such as prodigy, pendulum chase and status, DJ fresh to name a few. Completely shocking but i guess the majors take control and dictate the music that they produce | |||

"Grew up on the stuff loved old stool and Italian house mainly a fan of RAF (mauro picotto)back then played and toured and ran events all over UK and Europe mainly Trance and Hard dance events and festivals. My favourites have to be driving stuff like early John O'callahan indecent noise, Jordan Suckley, signum, used to be a HH nut 20 years ago and been pretty much all the tidy weekenders for the fun and frolicks. Good times. But you can't beat a great old stool piano house track in my opinion!! I have a massively eclectic taste but this is some electronic stuff I like BTW EDM is just pitched down Hardstyle with a different kick and it's pretty socks balls for me! " With you on piano house, The piano is my favourite instrument, some of the classic piano house tunes are pure euphoria. | |||
"Electronic ambient I love, plus more recently ambient trance/psytrance. Started off with Tangerine Dream back in the 80s, then Depeche Mode type of genre. More recently John Foxx (ex-Ultravox), Bill Laswell, Harold Budd, Steve Roach, Zero Cult, Total Eclipse, Squarepusher, Electrypnose and my current favourite, Tripswitch (not the metal band, but Nick Brennan) - a good place to listen is online at psychedelik.com: there's a variety of sub-genres on that station " Thanks for the link | |||
"Berghain techno: Paula temple, Helena stuff House: Solomon,miss kittin,Alan braxe- in fact anything off ed banger records, tiga and all the dfa shiz Vitalic,deadmau5,Maya Jane Coles, trentemoller, seen amon Tobin loads- absolute genius. Jamie xx is pioneering. Skream's essential mix from radio1 is still dubstep amazingness. Yes to electronic " Nice! Solomon's Hanburg based label Diynamic has some of the best stuff around, Stimming being one of the standouts. Have a look for the 5 years and 10 years Diynamic albums. Not listened to miss Kitten for years, thanks for the reminder | |||

Vitalic was brutal, his first 2 albums are classics imho. Mr | |||

"warp records ... home of Sheffield bleep LFO That bassline was something else " There are very few tekno lps where the whole album is awesome. LFO's first album is one of them I was on a ferry once and got chatting to this rasta dude. He dropped that he had produced a bit of tekno back in the day and I immediately got curious. He said I'd probably never heard of him. Turns out he was one of Forgemasters (warp records). He was chuffed when I immediately told him the name of his track and said it was one of my favourite releases on warp | |||

"Rob or Winston?" It was a while ago and I was getting beered up on route to a free party in Holland so the details are a bit blurry... as they should be for any self respecting tekno head, I should hasten to add | |||
"Osric tentacle " Didn't Eat Static come out of them? It started as a bit of a joke then they suddenly thought "f*ck me this sound is wicked" and took it more seriously. Something like that I think | |||
