a lot of techno music producers also work as professional djs. i like to get aquainted with electronic music on full length albums when possible. i also love various artist compilations from respected record labels. yet another tremendous way to consume music is via dj mixes like this one. this is a mix paula temple did for french magazine tsugi. it's an upbeat and very intelligent set aimed to make you sweat. all the bpm of the tracks flow into each other seamlessly. so it has the feel of a really memorable set you might hear in a club. often dj mixes like this one are only available as a single hour + long mp3. what i love about this is that the track divisions are there and you can follow along and see which cut is by which artist. paula temple is a label boss who's work caught my attention after i noticed that she'd done collaborative work with artists i respect such as the two cuts included here that she did with sos gunver ryberg, aisha devi and rrose. her bio from discogs: "Paula Temple is a DJ, producer and music technology pioneer.
