Definitely a major figure in Techno, but I think he wasn't listed here cos he isn't minimal, no?

[whatever]

well i think on this forum the discussions developed to a large range of musical styles around minimal....
saunderson's x-mix is one of my fav compilations ever. can't wait to listen to him in november in bucharest.

[Red Kite]

I so love this guy. On of the few people I'd call "heroes".

The "Faces and Phases" compilation on Planet E is one of the most appreciated gems in my record shelf, along with the X-Mix vinyl compilation. Great DJ as well.
