I know I have forgotten so much but that should get you started. 90% of that I liked so much on MP3 I bought the CD / vinyl to support the artist.

See if you can sell your soul to s8n and get hooked up with the MP3 group sour, or go hang in #mp3rave on EFNet. Either way and you will be buying new hard drives to store MP3s on. Sour normally releases about a gig or so of DnB and Jungle a month and they have been doing so for years.

aphex twins is some phatty sh!t but makes you go crazy if you listen to it too long..."I'd like to have some milk from the milkmans..."

and orbital is good stuff to listen to for long periods of time.

oh yeah phunction, krispykreme and buddhist you guys got some damn fine taste. except for the aphrodite phunction - seen him live 3 or 4 times... sucked every time. Grooverider live @ house of blues in 98, that was incredible. But anyways, more nachos.

Anyone ever seen propeller heads in concert? man they give one hell of an incredible show believe it or not. They were one of the opening bands for crystal method (bt played that same night too) and both BT and propeller heads blew away crystal meth by far (fatboy slim was there too now that i think about it. It was the MGD tour at warfield). But Prop heads were the best. Anyone else ever see them in concert?

Crystal Method is releasing a new CD this summer. They have one of the tracks availble to hear on their website, and if its an accurate indication of the rest of the album the CD going to be just as awesome as their first :D

Okay i have to retract my statement about daftpunk's discovery :Q

I forced myself to listen to it today (well for the first six tracks) and its not half bad. As a matter of fact i found myself listening to the first four songs over and over. :Q
They definately are kind of bizzare, however i do think some of their sounds are good if you force yourself to listen to it. :D (thats the hard part.)
Also, they most surely are pioneers in their own way!

Hardfloor - man, those 303 squiggly buildups take ya places

I haven't been listening to much of the newer stuff, but some of the psytrance from 96-99 is mindblowing, just so much trippy sounds coming out of the speakers. They're making those machines do things that make you think aliens are talking to ya ;)
