We speak Techno. Don't know what kind of language that might be, but I'll happily join the conversation. I do speak Techno. Hell, there's nothing else I talk about. Techno, Techno, Techno. Yep, that's all I talk about. Well, you know that's not strictly the truth, but we do have every so often Techno mix reviews, so it's not like we ignore it. And we have written a few reviews, which were focussed on Brooksie's mixes. So, in that sense, we do speak Techno. Do you speak Techno?
Well, it has only been two mixes I've reviewed, so not that many. But at least we are fully aware who Brooksie is. I am not aware of Safehouse Radio or the show We Speak Techno, but now, due to this mix, I am aware. And I might give it a go, if they play the same kind of Techno that I like. He (Brooksie) was asked for make a mix for this show, which was broadcasted in April of this year, and you are listening to the outcome of that mix session.
We started today with a UK Hardcore set, followed up by a House set, and now a Techno set. Life is so damn good at the moment, isn't it? So many glorious mixes being uploaded onto YouTube, Soundcloud and more. Instant gratification I call it. The only thing I'm not good at, is remembering names. Hence why I only review sets with a tracklist. But even when it does come with a tracklist, the names don't ring any bell.
So let's dive straight in, shall we?
The Degenerate - Up
Tiddles & Rachel Rackitt - Battle Cry
BONES 33 - Chocolate
Sterling Moss - The Rebirth
Tiddles & Sam DFL - Anti
Carl Short - Turn It Up
Tassid & Eski - PRESS 3
D.A.V.E The Drummer - Dig Into The Brain
Krismix - Time Bomb (Chris Liberator & Sam DFL Remix)
Dynamo City & Rats On Acid - Contagion
Zero Dayz - Scared Business
Benji303 & Lee S. - Fuck The Tories (Sterling Moss & Mark EG Fuck The 303 Remix)
DICA - The Dancing Plague
If I remember correctly, the previous two reviews also had short tracklists, so that's good. An easy one to type. And as said before, I don't know that many names. Some ring a bell, but that could be down to Brooksie playing them before, or I've seen them somewhere.
The mix is interesting, and the flow is excellent. With that first song, the tone is truly set. And I fully feel the mix. I fully understand Acid Techno, as I speak the Techno beautifully. It's such a glorious mix, but that opening anthem, that's a big one. To some it might sound very repetitive, but to me it sounds heavenly. Never heard of The Degenerate before, but I do like this song a lot!
Brooksie's set is a good one, and it's only an hour long. You can listen to this doing something else at the same time. You might have an hour at work, or when you are driving home, or even when you are cooking your dinner. Listen to this mix, at it's a big one.
Unless you don't speak Techno. In that case, apologies for the inconvenience. But go away right now. Only those that speak Techno are allowed to listen to this mix.
