[quote=““Hans Olo””]
40, living in Germany. Started my muscial socialisation with Level 42, The Smiths, The Cure, moved on to Ska, Reggae and Northern Soul. Got into Rare Groove/Acid Jazz/MPB in the early 90s and expanded my musical universe in the direction of House and Hip Hop (Gang Starr, Pete Rock & CL Smooth). Collected Mo’ Wax 12"s for a while and discovered Soma Records when they released the 1st Daft Punk Album. Listened to a lot of french stuff (Etienne de Crecy, Demon, Alex Gopher). Carl Craigs “More songs about food and revolutionary art” and “Bug in the bassbin” pushed me in the direction of Detroit Techno, started digging for the stuff that influenced it and fell in love with Göttsching’s E2-E4. International Pony brought me to DJ Koze and Erobique. Frequently check out Souljazz Records compilations and Druffalo Hit Squad mixes (Druffalo - Druffmix). Admire Move D (he used to DJ a lot near where I live) and Gerd Janson. Like what KiNK does live. Can’t go wrong with Stefan Goldmann/Finn Johannsen. Keep getting back to Stereolab and cheesy 70s cop show Soundtracks. Have and will always hate U2.
What was the question again?!

Very nice. I love all of both those bands catalogs!
i’m 34yrs and i’m from zürich,switzerland.
Influences are:
besides the usual influences of techno and house i came a long way from metal, funk, classical, jazz and much more
the only thing i try to avoid is top 30 charts music
A lot of different types of music (i’m also a guitarist), but as electronic goes i’m fond of Hallucigen, Carpenter Brut, Deadmau5, Digitalism, Gesaffelstein, Infected Mushroom, Minilogue, Petar Dundov, Royscoop, TM404 etc etc…
Grew up in the NW and started clubbing when Madchester was kicking off. Spent my weekends at Spin Inn record shop, Hacienda, Affleck’s Palace, Quadrant Park. Shelley’s in Stoke.
I am quite above my age and live in Berlin. I come from Neil Young, John Lee Hooker, El-P, Public Enemy, Jesus And Mary Chain, Plastikman, Digital Mystikz, Kryptic Minds, Cave and Cohen.
Not in that particular order…
I come from Leeds originally
I used to knock around with the Terra crew in the early “noughties”
Purusha, I remember seeing you on many a flyer for gigs at the “Windy”[/quote]
Terra jungle. Remember seeing my-ziq at one of those nights. Top stuff!!
34, struer, Denmark, but originally from Huddersfield
Do any of you west yorks guys go to Golden Cabinet in Shipley? My mate from oop norf has been banging on about it a lot recently - proper techno in a reclaimed old victorian school or something like that?
got into electronic music via plastikman and the early 90s techno scene - R&S, Warp etc. also love early garage rock and psychedelic freakout music, synth funk, weirdo pop, early music, pastoral classical and blah blah blah
Hi there,
wherever you are.
I’m 41, Naples.
Grew up with Aphex Twin, Squarepusher and Maradona.
For about a month I closed my laptop,
sold my sound card and bought an Octatrack
for my beloved Monomachine.
I often read the forums to find answers and I am grateful to you all.
Waiting to read about some meeting somewhere …
