Spotify playlist: 45 mind-bending techno tracks
We've got something for your mind
If you want to completely lose yourself in the dance then there's no genre quite like techno. The combination of repetitive patterns and warped, disorientating textures makes for a potent recipe for sending your psyche spiralling into some distant dimension.
We all need an escape from the this mortal plane from time to time, and getting lost in a swarm of dark, propulsive sounds is one of the simpler routes to take. Especially now we've compiled this handy playlist of some of our favourite mind-bending techno records, packed full of skittering percussive lines, dizzying rhythms, depth-charged bass layers and off-kilter melodies.
Stick your headphones on and immerse yourself in the vortex below.
