Dj Trance & Fester - Trance Fester Volume 1 (Mixtape) [1992]

 

1st of 4 tapes they released together. Classic oldschool techno when the scene was at its peak here in Los Angeles. You can still hear the industrial orgins of electronic, early techno was dark, solid and pounding before it turned more jumpy. IMO my favorite style of all electronic, hard Detroit beats with a noisy synth dropped on top, and a sample of some random movie line. I love the oldschool style of mixes, back and forth transitions and a ton of samples. When djs weren't scared to use their fader and actually touched the vinyl.

I played the shit out of this tape as a youth.

Hardfloor - The Best Of (2 CD Compilation) [1997]

 

 

German duo who released plenty of acid techno & dub hits, not to mention their remixes. Each song is like a journey, they build you up and drag you on. Considered one of the best and originators of all EDM you hear till this day. I always appreciated their baseball references.

VA - Hard Beat - 2nd Compilation [1989]

I remember hearing this type of music in the late 80s and not fully understanding what it was. Ive always had a broad spectrum of tunes, but this stood out, got my attention and I leached on for good. Repetitive beats, samples over used, an acid backdrop, yet it was almost industrial. Great history lesson here.

Dj Trance - Los Angeles (Mixtape) [1992]

 

 

One of the 1st mixtapes I bought. Dj Trance Aka Jason Blakemore. He was very much a techno breakbeat dj at this point, it wasn't till the later 90s he transformed into the (minimal acid techno) killer. Imo his acid tapes are his best work.

 

*This tape gets confused with the Dj Trance Vs. R.A.W. - Wake Up L.A. Mixtape, which will uploaded soon.
