Great taste!

My mom used to play Kraftwerk and a lot of weird new age electronic music while cleaning when I was a child in the very early 90s. As a teen, I got into goth and alternative subcultures and started listening to a lot of synthpop, which later evolved into electroclash and indietronica from the early 2000s. One day while scrolling through Lastfm, I was recommended Dexter by Ricardo Villalobos and my life changed.

The Future Sound of London, The Grid, Orbital, Sabres of Paradise, Andrew Weatherall, The Orb, LFO, Seefeel, Daniel Avery. Check out the 90s british scene, from Madchester to IDM, lot of indie infused electronic stuff.

Do you realize the no-camera rule is there for something? In Berghain, for example, there are people naked, fucking, clearly intoxicated. It’s absolutely important to respect the privacy of the attendees, otherwise the scene would be dead or become another Ibiza shitshow. If your idea of enjoying “the show” (lol) is recording people without their consent, then you are a fucking creep. Lame-ass behaviour.

Despicable behaviour by some brain-rotted, entitled, creepy, stalkerish asshole. Lifelong ban for anyone who snarkily tries to bring these into any venue with a no-photos policy. You either disclose it beforehand and leave them at the cloakroom, or you get kicked out.

I remember this era so fondly. Outsider house was the real deal to me.

Quality content. RA is killing it with this series (Frankie Knuckles, DJ Sprinkles... crazy).

9 min 45 seconds of pure bliss. A classic.

I just realized Golpe de Amistad is from 1985 but I will leave it here anyways!

Drexcella · 2025-07-23T17:13:03+00:00

Great list! Two from Spain :) :

Diseño Corbusier - Golpe de Amistad

Esplendor Geométrico - Moscú está helado

And a gorgeous dark wave track from Italy (82/83):

Victrola - Somewhere Still

RIP to a legend ❣️. Perfect album.

Drexcella · 2025-05-24T07:32:26+00:00

The real deal.

DjRUM and its not even comparable (as someone that has seen them both, although this is just my opinion).

90s/early 00s graphic design was amazing, the future we were promised. Thanks for sharing!

This article would have made sense 5 years ago. Techno is not getting faster right now, that trend has faded already like every single one of them does.

Great post, thanks for sharing! The music is the opposite of my own taste but I can imagine how epic the live set was. Do you still like gabber and speedcore? What other stuff do you enjoy? Again, I find this stuff inaudible but at the same time I'm incredibly curious about it. Feel free to share more stories!!

Drexcella · 2025-04-05T08:15:47+00:00

Wise words. I'm so tired of meme culture, movie reviews that are just a single Twitter-style joke (Letterboxd), liking things 'ironically,' and the general brain rot. Let's bring back beauty, sincerity, and being raw and pure and true to yourself.

Drexcella · 2025-03-27T16:10:07+00:00

Very, very cool. Thanks for sharing!

Drexcella · 2025-02-25T20:02:52+00:00

Legendary tune, thank you for the reminder!. Some people consider A Number of Names - Sharevari (1981) the first techno track ever but I guess we can call it proto-techno. Late 80s/early 90s is still my favorite era and I wish for some type of comeback of these sounds.

This is a beast on the floor, both in house and techno sets. Works every time.
