Norman Jay was given an Order of the British Empire for his services
to DJing.
Norman Jay's MBE was due to his work with the British Council; it had
nothing to do with his DJing - he deserves more than just an MBE for
that!

I know its not techno but this handmade mix CD is well worth picking up - sort
of ambient and hip hop all in one and easily the best mix CD of the year I have
heard - WarpMart are selling it (though I got mine from Piccadilly) and
describe it as such:

Off the top of my head a list of my favourite dnb/jungle/old skool tracks -
whether you can say they relate to techno or not is up to you:

It depends on how much time you have! I've found good things there but its
