If 2022’s first techno chart is any indication, we are in for a loud and wild ride. The cream of the crop is pushing the tempo past 135 BPM and ravers all over the planet are embracing the speed.
Strap yourselves in for a fast and phenomenal ride through January’s best techno.

“The Measure” may open with an oversized breakbeat but an even bigger kickdrum leads it to the promised land.
For the third release on her imprint, N:S:DA, Anfisa Letyago invited some of the best in the game to remix the tunes that kicked off her label in 2021. Most notably, Chris Liebing who put his own spin on “Not There” and sent it into the next dimension.
Southampton producer, Ronnie Spiteri has been alternating back and forth between house and techno these past five years but with his latest release via We are The Brave, it’s fair to say that he’s totally dialed into techno right now.
Not to mention, it’s his sixth release on the label and I believe “Amnesia” is the strongest of all three tunes on this EP. Crank it up and judge for yourself.
Second on the chart from Ronnie Spiteri is his title tune which is expectedly the biggest banger of all three tunes on the EP.
The third and final cut from the Devils Dust E.P. goes just a bit deeper than its two counterparts and its title is “Red Zone.”
In addition to Chris Liebing’s otherworldly remix, DJ Rush‘s exceptional remix of “Rising Sun” also stands up as one of techno’s best this past month.
