my favorite Black Dog track (hardly techno, but it'd be nice if techno sounded more like this):

Stomping UK acid trance: ok enough for me now

Couldn't have been done anywhere but in the UK - by later Radioactive Lamb moniker Vango Noir

This is the funkiest white boy techno that was ever around, I'll tell ya

"Keep it simple, stupid":

Bit of a wierd one-off here. Never manage to grab it on wax:

This just slightly at the tail end of the OP timespan. Obviously this guy together with Cristian Vogel and a couple others started making waves on the contintental circuit in the end 90's (and did save techno from Millsian tedium at least for a couple years). I guess this it what goes as...

Quintessential Dave Angel. Maybe the best producer of "good vibes techno" I know of :

One of the first records I bought, early Russ Gabriel moniker. I played this a lot

the best

More The Advent. I never get tired of this:
