Damon Wild mixing a selection of tunes from his Synewave label. Banging 90’s Techno from one of the decades greats.

Spira – Shatter

No nonsense banger from the short lived London duo. 1995.

In sync – Mirage

Classy UK Techno with a strong Detroit feel from the wonderful Lee Purkiss. Purkiss is sadly no longer with us, and was far less prolific than many of us would have liked. However, when one of his tracks dropped, people paid attention. This is from his 2005 ‘Sahara’ EP.

Underworld – Rez

Forget Born Slippy; an overrated Indie dance number that only really burrowed its way into the public consciousness because of the film it was attached to. No, ‘Rez’ is the definitive Underworld track, and showcased how vital Darren Emerson was to the band at the time. Vast, expansive, and anthemic Techno, yet still actual Techno. 1993.

Infiniti – Think Quick

Classic Techno from 1994 that has retained its freshness. It’s from Juan Atkins, the master, and was the B-Side to the wonderful ‘Game One’. Keep your eyes peeled for the stellar remix from Moritz Von Oswald, which we’ll be posing soon.

James Ruskin – Boiler Room London DJ Set

No messing, straight-ahead Techno from the UK stalwart.

Silent Servant – Mad Youth

RIP John Juan Mendez

Eco Tourist – Penguins

Dave Angel – Catch 1
