I Love Techno

I do. I guess I've always liked it but had been against the whole sterotypical beep-boop-bop kazzo kind, which now I love just as much anyways. What mainly got me hooked was an online DDR-type game called Flash Flash Revolution, which I can't link to because it has message boards.
My favorite techno artists are as follows-
SuperGreenX - Lame name, but amazing music. Most of his songs blend in orchestra with ambient electronic, making songs that'd be great for background music in a Myst-type game. But some of his songs can be rather hardcore, and many are done in a unique style. He happens to remix video game songs frequently, making them so different you'd have never guess he didn't make the tune up. Fave Songs: Crowdpleaser, 4F73R M3, Mario Paint - Intense Color, and Synesthetic.
KaW - Goes by too many names - KeeL, Smiley, Bonzai, etc. that I've just come to refer to all of him as Kaweeleybitzaitor X. His music follows the traditional techno system the most - lots of tracks that repeat in a pattern, coming in and going at different points in the song. But the fact that his focus the most on tunes rather than effects make them my favorite to listen to, and the melodies frequently get stuck in my head. His songs tend to call in the categories of Happy Hardcore, industrial, or foreign cultural. Fave Songs:
Delirium, Destiny, Take Me Back, Petrification, Exotica, and Who.
Prophecy - One guy but collaberates with a group known as Prophetik Music. His songs are the best for imagination trips because it's more instrumental than synthesizes. A lot of his songs sound foreign. The Indian and Asian styles are what he seems to enjoy the most, but he has several songs that sound spacey as well. Music to close your eyes to. He remixes game songs as well. Fave Songs: Back to the Place I Once Knew, As Do I, Chekan Winter, Dark Piano, and Tribal Transcendency.
For Great Justice! - His name happens to be a quote from All Your Base, but it used to be SpookGoblin. His songs tend to be around grindy and buzzy, the type my friend David (piratesheep on BZP, but he only has 1 post) refers to as "Liquid Stretch". But some songs can be very unique and musical as well. He has a skill of totally changing the song's feeling in the middle of it, going from chaos grindy to soft and beepy. Fave Songs:
Save Me!, La Luna Caida, Secret Zombie Room, Parachute Stupid Clowns (in The Good Job Company), and One Last Battle.
DJ RageVI - Goes by other monikers as well but they all include "Rage". He's the rave guy. His techno is the type you think about, the kind they play in lazertag and car commercials. Tons of synthesized instruments, and lots of what my friend calls "Techno Kazoos". Speedy and exciting. Rave, rave, and more rave. Fave Songs: Tetris Tailspin, UB3R R4VE, and For FFR.
.selah - Guess who this is? Me! Unfortunately, my music exists only in my imagination and on my keyboard as of now. When my music is created, it will lean towards imaginary over rave, and - wait, why am I rambling about myself? I'm saving all this info for a totally new blog entry. You'll just have to wait.
But I do like artists like Darude, Zombie Nation, BanYa, DM Ashura, Patt.22, etc. Just not as much as the above 5 guys.
