Techno! It's not just black-clad Berlin hipsters with weird quasi-mullets, it's also (lest you forget) ... really American! So for my latest mix I have dug into my record collection to put together a 35 track feast of clanking techno from the halcyon days of the 90's, all by American artists. I'm American, sure, but this is not some kind of weird nationalistic project ... it's just a fun theme. :)

And sure, obviously, there are lots of artists I've missed out on, and many major tracks ... but then again this isn't supposed to be *the* mix of 90's American techno, merely *a* mix of 90's American techno.

Acid Wave #39: Pearsall [2018 Banging Acid Techno Mix]

On the 25th of August 2023 I'll be joining the @parallaxrecordings crew for a sick party at Mensch Meier in Berlin, along with the Subland and Impulse crews. Expect an amazing night!

As a promo for the party, I've done some crate-digging to put together this selection of insane old skool hardcore. Hard to believe this stuff is 30 years old now ... it sounds just as mad as when it was first committed to wax!
