Looking for some techno to listen to

[EssJay]

Before I go into this, I don't want to be fuckin' bombarded with all that "it's trance" or "jungle" or all that other shit, to me, it's techno in a broad sense of the entire genre. I want to find new music, not be told that I haven't got the subgenres and shit mixed up.
Ok, basically what I am after is something that fits into all these catagories:

• something similar to the Squarepusher "Normal Hard Daddy" and Aphex Twin "Richard D. James" albums.
• interesting writing, not the same shitty DOOF DOOF beat that lasts the whole album.
• melodic.

So if anyone out there can reccomend me some stuff to check out, I shall be greatfull.

Any more suggestions?
Also, I'm having a bit of trouble getting the Plaid CD, does anyone here have it and use soulseek?

ooOOOoo!! I know what your looking for. Locust Toybox is what he calls himself. It's the same kid that makes those "Salad Fingers" cartoons. He suprisingly makes some really good stuff.

You can download almost all of what he has from this link:

I suggest stuff from either Scribble Beats or A Kettle of Wealth.

Enjoy
