Don’t know very much at all about house and techno, but people keep mentioning DJ Francois K a lot in terms of dub. I’m always a little suspicious of that cross over because I’ve heard too many dodgy attempts – yer usual 4 to the floor boom tish with a few bits of reverb and echo on the top and maybe a deejay sample in the intro.
