Used to spin Schranz a few years ago.. 98-2002 or so..
When CL-R and Clau were new labels and some primate releases still sounded good.
Always preferred the more intelligent german/italian/sweidish sound, but the more straight ahead techno sound of UK labels like template, punish, planet rhythm etc definitely had some good stuff at the time. Glenn Wilson is still good. So is The Anxious. (Tho I prefer his hardtrance sets 
As with most genres, when it becomes popular the quality instantly inflates and everyone starts to sound like the high-end of the sales chart.. So i left the genre. At least the bang-churning sounds.
When i see the bigshot bandwagon DJs of today pickup techno/tribal and even schranz I just laugh at them..
The favourites I still pick up records by these days are people like Johannes Heil, Alexander Kowalski, hmm.. The Advent is awesome and so is Marco Carola.
Often hard, but it's all quality and definitely not produced with the sole purpose of making people stomp their asses off.
Occationally my old fav Ben Sims also blows my mind, but for some reason he's not as big in the UK, why is that?
Oh and Surgeon rocks too.
I'm probably outdated on the techno front. 99% of what i buy these days is hardtrance and I'm unable to keep track of what's happening in techno!

Schranz techno is complete shite.
People like dj amok, sven wittekind and robert natus churn out tunes at such a rate, I think they forget to listen to them first. Some of their releases are pitiful.
For decent hard techno try stuff from the anxious, glenn wilson(old stuff) and carl max is quite good also. |
hmm maybe it is shite.. or maybe it is genius. just cos its hard as hell dosnt mean its not intelligent. schranz basically is techno but with more intense sounds, frantic percs, and distortion. a lot of the schranz ive heard has a japanese vibe to it, only ofcourse its harder...and to be fair, japanese techno is fucking excellent .
and for your information ive heard picotto drop the odd schranz track before

I just think natus, amok, etc are churning out so many tunes that are such bad quality.
take for instance, mario ranieri - he samples a merry go round in one of his tune. wtf is that all about. |
lol i wasnt implying he makes mistakes.. im a picotto fan too ya know, just wanted to point out that picotto drops [or has been known to drop] the odd schranz track, which [no offence by this] considering hes your fave DJ, youd say he his track selection is great, and initiative of set building is ace... so therefore for him to be dropping the odd schranz track, maybe it isnt as lame and unthoughtful as YOU personally say it is just because you dont like it. 
nasenbluten produce [or used to] all theyre tracks in 8bit mono sound, yeah its all hard beats and swearing, and awful sound quality.... diabollically shit to the majority of the population, but nasenbluten is a respected name in its field, as is natus and co to schranz
