Not techno per se, but everything Hiroshi Watanabe produced is incredible (i.e. Kaito, 32 Project, Quadra, etc.)

I guess Fumiya Tanaka is a pretty choice obvious choice, and was always too dry and aggressive for me to ever actually enjoy, but...

some really great suggestions ITT
let me just point out how incredible Denki Groove's VOXXX is. released in 2000 (which is kind of the year that techno stopped evolving), it's really a great look back at 25-some years of electronic music

I have a number of Ishino solo albums, though not those two. Also I've had difficulty finding "re-grip". But I'll track down the rest - thanks

I do like some of this here, but i guess i'm looking more for technopop type stuff, maybe this isn't exactly the right thread

You would think the Japanese would/should dominate techno (and electronic music), to paraphrase a Gary Busey movie quote, 'they got half the records and all the synths.'
― earlnash, Thursday, 21 June 2012 23:41 (eleven years ago) link
oh i don't know about that, aren't most synths and drum machines from other places?
― the late great, Friday, 22 June 2012 00:13 (eleven years ago) link
this is a really broad topic that I really have no idea how to begin to interact with although I want to since I'm balls deep into japanese electronic music haha
here's a list of nerd/hard/break/whatevercore acts I'd like to either hear more from or hear from again at all that I was going to post on another forum but I guess I'm not allowed to talk on there anymore.

i bought the boogiepop phantom soundtrack in high school bc i was sort of obsessed with the theme song from the show. it totally does not include the theme song. it is two discs of completely haunted gorgeous mid-'90s techno? (the soundtrack came out in 2002 so idk.) i've never met anyone who's also heard this record. it's out of print but available for $3 from a third-party seller at amazon.
