this thread is awesome!!!!!!

 

dj mars - sonic sunrise album

 

trance sucks.

going off the top of my head:
- prefuse 73
- autechre
- aphrodite
- aphex twin
- squarepusher
- nightmares on wax
- mark farina
- devious methods
- pop will eat itself

I've got more on my computer at home.

basically, electronica and idm kicks techo's ass all day long.

 

I wish di.fm was available as a satellite radio station (perhaps there is a similar station, but I'm not subscribed to sat radio anymore )

 

i like the global underground series (get the ones rated the highest on amazon, can't go wrong). also, oakenfold had some pretty good albums before...tranceport and another world (disc2)...regardless of what he is now.

 

Check out:

http://www.crystalclouds.com (Yes, I know it sounds like an adult actress' stagename, but there's good music there )

 

thanks guys, liking the recommendations so far!
