78. round two 'new day'

Can't believe i forgot about that one in my first post!!!!!!!

sweet...

this is my favorite genre of music ever

Misspent Years - LOVE!!!

80. Luke Slater -- Love !!!!

(there's a bunch of stuff here:

Micro-goth

that would fit as well...)

pretty much ANY Robert Owens

68. "number one" (black strobe instrumental) - playgroup

is this sad??

I think to be honest most dance songs, even euphoric ones, have a sort of happy/sad thing going on. and having said that.........

81. The Pet Shop Boys-Heartbeat

I love it too! in the get physical club harpune mix, the herbert boese one, he mixes that into the Carl Craig remix of "Tides"!

yeah the strings never fail to make me want to kind of fall over

83. 69 - Desire

Melencholy emotional techno can anything be more strange and more beautiful?

Sniff..

Makes me think of Blade Runner. Can I include that whole soundtrack on here?

84. Blade Runner - Original Soundtrack

85. Midnight Express-Original Soundtrack

86. Lawrence - The absence of blight

The whole damn album. Its purty.

87. Juergen Paape -- So Weit Wie Noch Nie
(Dettinger's mix in particular)

(in no particular order)
(also, I got carried away)

88. Orbital - Adnan's
89. Orbital - The Girl With The Sun In Her Head
90. Orbital - The Box (Part 2)
91. Björk - Anchor Song (Black Dog Remix)
92. The Black Dog - Chesh
93. Barbara Morgenstern - Mjisnjedschaz (it's not techno.. it's electronic pop, but what the hell. I'm not the only person veering off-thread here & it really does make me weep :') ).
94. Björk - Violently Happy
95. Björk - All Is Full Of Love (the 'techno' version that closes Homogenic, although the Mark 'Spike' Stent mix is equally capable of moistening my peepers)
96. Björk - Desired Constellation
97. Ellen Allien - Fenstermusik
98. Ellen Allien - Licht (this one just stops time... the static, the sub-bass, that enormous industrial clanging noise all framing the prettiest little synth line ever way, way deep in the mix. Electro-tough, yet devastatingly gorgeous).
99. The Black Dog - Cost II
100. Manuel Göttsching - E2-E4
101. Fingers Inc - Can You Feel It

116. zoot woman - taken it all (le knight club remix)
117. contriva - stuck (superpitcher remix)

118. Royksopp - Sparks

Yes, that one definitely does it. interesting how fast this thread became un-techno and more techno/tech-house/anything-goes isn't it?

119. The Future Sound Of London - While Others Cry. Jesus. most depressing 'house' tune ever.

118. Ghost Cauldron, "See What I've Become" Superpitcher Smallville mix
119. IO - Claire

121. Bolz Bolz - Take A Walk (that Neo-Romantic Dima mix on Felix Da Housecats Excursions)

Hahaha, nobody mentions the obvious:

122. Superpitcher - Time To Cry

but 'Acid Eiffel' owns this thread more than anything else

Also in the 'tears of joy'-category:
123. Conjure One feat. Sinead O'Connor - Tears From The Moon (Tiesto Remix)

138. Burger/Ink - Avalon

it's "time out", ronan. i also listed that dettinger rmx upthread. great minds think alike! i listened to that song over and over again when i first got kompakt 100. it's tunes like that which make me want to have a really good sound system.
