[Dragonsand]

1. Ion Ludwig - Simply the best to bring artistical minimal techno. Unique sound. Each track is a fairytale

2. Anders Ilar - Gracefull and very precise minimal techno.

3. Seph - Argentina's finest. "Dungeon-like" sounds, mind-blowing technical tracks.

4. Jesse Somfay - (but, difficult to say that it's "minimal" only...). Unique sound, etheral, linking minimal techno with progressive and acid.

5. Portable - African percussions reworked with technology noises. Very cool.

6. Pheek - Technical, precise, intelligent, always on top, what more?

7. Cabanne - Best French artist. Funny, druggy, micro sounds.

8. Miskate - I love her original "noise" samples. Great productions.

9. Sutekh - This man is mad mad mad. Warm Road is one of my favourite track ever.

10. Jason And The Argonauts - Okay, just 2 digital releases...but absolut bombs! Looking forward to hear a lot more from them...
