Roderic, knew you were from Oz without even checking your profile, that tune was massive in Melbourne late 90s, crazy thing is it was from 93 I think, and it still doesn't sound dated nearly 30 years later.
I don't want to bang it every night on here, however, got a couple of tunes that apparently were massive in Melbourne and Adelaide in the 90s, they went down very well here too.
Edit: and Adelaide

Yeah, that's a nice wee subtle builder though. Got to go and do some boring stuff. I've noted some industrial and electro gear you've posted, problem is the past few nights I've been on, including now, the sun has been blazing in the patio doors. I'll wait until I have a good scoop of whiskey and the rain is bouncing off them before I fire up the moody gear. Being the UK, I won't have to wait long.
Any recommendations for classic, or must listen to mixes, for a newbie to the genre? Something along the lines of you'd really be missing out if you didn't listen to this, or that. New or old.
Have listened to a bit of Richie Hawtin, Garnier, but that's it. Liked both. And having difficulty sifting through the masses of stuff, basically I haven't a clue where to begin looking.
Thank you.

If you're listening to Larry G and hawtin you're going in the right direction. Although, in a strictly techno sense, a lot of hawtins output between about 2003 and 2017 was ropey as fHave listened to a bit of Richie Hawtin, Garnier, but that's it. Liked both.

k, that was his mnml phase, and I find a hi-hat getting equeued for 15 mins a bit boring. He started playing proper techno again from about 2017 and also did live gigs of his F.U.S.E persona.In terms of classic mixes, the X-Mix series stands out, garnier appeared on that run. Garniers laborotoir mix is a good one.
Look out for Dave Clarke: Fuse Presents Dave Clarke, World Series (1 & 2), I Love Techno .07 (there's a whole i love techno series iirc).
Dave Angel: 39 Flavours of Tech Funk, his X-Mix is a cracker too.
There's a whole pile of Mixmag mixes.
A slew of DJ Kicks (Carl Craigs springs to mind)
DJ Rolando - The Aztec Mystic Mix, and Vibrations mix.
Lastly, but most certainly not leastly, Derrick May – Mix-Up Vol. 5, Jeff Mills - Live Mix At Liquid Room Mix-Up Vol. 2, both stone-cold.
That covers a broad selection going by what you've listened to so far. I've purposely avoided the harder robot fighting washing machines, heavy on the murder-music nihilistic type of techno.
