What you lot think then? Best artists, labels, tracks?
Well for me number 1 has to be Spiral Tribe :clap:
Favourate mix tape is 'High Voltage Occilations' - soo hardtek rave, bought at Czechtek 1995-ish (the one with the WW2 bomber) - with one of the best acid tracks I've ever heard.
'sound of technival' is still one of my favourate LPs. I love them because to me it's proper rave music.
Spiral Tribe had a number of key artists 69db, Automanic Josh, Crystal Distortion, Ixindamix, Jano and Jeff. This is kinda a world wide network now - Network 23 inc. a number of UK Rigs like headfuk. Quality and you still hear them out and about every weekend at free parties (see squatjuice..)
Network 23- MP3 Downloads
Also Vegantekno - free mp3
Crystal Distortion is still putting out good tunes and playing in London at the moment. One worth looking out for is 'Extension Sonore' and the seminal 'Anyone can dance that's the law'.
DB69 was never my thing but Jeff SP23 is the man!
Drop Bass Networks is pretty damn impressive too! Woodly McBride did some of his best work there, imo.
