saw the techno storm come- is this the techno drizzle?
Is it me or after the wknd of Chris Liebig and all the other slated DJs did stuff just die down- I lost my mojo with going out about now. Is there any great body moving techno to look forward to...back to drinking at home, sooner or later Ill see you all on the dancefloor.

great list of events. this covers me up until me last weekend in the NE not counting my last weekend which probably wont involve a techno event. I would really like to see ambivalent._Other than that I would like to check out Steve Bug and the Frolic event. However, with so many events outside of techno or even EDM in general, I will probably only end up going to Frolic.

I hear ya. I always miss Frolic cos there ends up being something awesome going on at the same at Summerstage. Thankfully this year it's different for me, since Jarabe de Palo (Spanish rock) and Novalima (Afro-Peruvian electronica) are going to be @ Summerstage a few days before instead of the day of Frolic
Last year I skipped Frolic for Italian rap, lol (don't judge, it was awesome).

While all good music, I think these are the main shows that Taurus is looking for. The harder kind of stuff :-) Xhin is NOT to be missed...extremely talented and out there producer from Japan (I think)
Thanks Chaska for the listing- def. all great DJ's and I enjoy listening to all their mixes at home,headsets, etc but when it comes to partying out at night need it with just a bit more edge and darkness. Go hard or go home.
Frank, hit it right on the head thanks for highlighting those- new ppl to learn about -looking forward to it, thanks.

I've gotten familiar with your taste I totally get it, I like my techno hard too, but like a lot of other styles and you did ask for "techno" and there's a LOT of options. Def try to check some Moodymann, since it's a day party and the Yard is great when they bring out some of the Detroit guys. The environment is totally different and you might like it, and if not, admission is only around $10 and you get to get in some sun
Steve Rachmad is really good, heard him for a bit in Detroit, but I can never say no to some m-nus, and I always have an awesome time @ the Bunker parties.
Personally, I can't wait for Wink and am seriously considering skipping Ben Klock and Nina Kraviz for him. I've been feeling Wink a LOT lately and have never heard him play live. We'll see how the set times are and maybe I can catch Nina Kraviz (who I've heard great things about- I've heard Klock several times already and have no doubt he'll be back soon so no pressure for me to see him) AND Wink.
And like I said, DO NOT miss Frolic. Stacey Pullen during DEMF blew me away EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. And the man plays HARD.

From Singapore, actually. He was a resident @ Zouk (he still might be, not sure), been hearing about him for a while.

Should be no problem to catch Wink and then Klock/Kravitz. That's my plan, anyway. If the Verboten crew rolls out set times similar to last week, then Wink should be around 8pm until midnight..... and Good Units is going until 5am, so you know Kravitz and Klock will both be on after midnight. *crosses fingers.
EDIT: PS to Taurus - I'd say the thing about most techno is that you can't get the full effect listening to it at home, car, etc.... You owe it to yourself to check out any dj at least once live because a lot of the stuff that doesn't seem so hard coming out of your ipod just might rock your socks in a club. That's what I've found, anyway, especially with this genre.
