Yeeeeeah dude. Anything in realm of Dozzy is awesome. Check out Wata Igarashi for a polished spacey sound. I also like the funky techno with detroit and hip hop vibes of the Zenker Brothers.
Best techno party ever is No Way Back during Movement in Detroit. Most likely featuring one of the above.
Of course I still like more semi-mainstream techno stuff, Ben Klock and Dettmann. And then even more mainstream, I love Prydz's polished big progressive and big tech sound.
I’m in London so never had the chance to check out the US techno scene, have been to some great nights in the U.K. and Berlin though. Getting a bit old for regular clubbing now but I’ll still go out for the odd special night. I saw No Way Out have a cool looking live stream coming up actually!
And yea, Dettmann, Klock etc are great at what they do, would happily dance to them. And I was really into Pryda in 2007/8 kind of time so I’m with you there too!
I’m 36... still enjoy late nights but find it messes up my sleep for days after even if I am fairly sensible with alcohol etc., so I’m more selective about when I go out - has to be worthwhile! Day parties I’m down for (tho they have a way of turning into night parties lol)
In London, good venues are Corsica Studios, Pickle Factory, The Cause, Fold... all pretty low key and underground. There’s good stuff in other cities too but I’m not really familiar with it any more.
Hah nothing like a good all day event that just blends into the night. Or next level, a night that blends into the morning. But so true about the sleep. Guess it's good because it makes you only go all in for the really special ones.
Good to know, might have to try and hit this summer during a euro-jaunt if they're open. Only thing I've seen so far is Dimensions Festival in croatia. Looks decent, although a bit commercial.
Hah savage Sven. To keep it going that long you need a cool crowd and an interesting setup imo... otherwise it's just moreso an "unnaturally" fueled marathon.
I've only done a true marathon (50+ hours without rest) one time in my life in Detroit. No doubt it aged me substantially lol.
Ha yeah that’s a much better way to do it. Before COVID hit there were a couple of London venues experimenting with longer Berlin-style opening hours. It’s as much a cultural thing as a legal thing I guess though.
