What is some, preferably psychedelic, slow-ish, and without an annoying repetative beat?
 
isn't good techno an oxymoron?

Seriously though I'll ask some mates.
 
what youre asking for isn't techno, techno is it's own genre (repetitive beats, mechanical/robotic in feel).

i'd say downtempo, psy, ambient, chillout?

try shpongle, carbon based lifeforms, solar fields, the fahrenheit compilations, also check out the chillout radiostation at www.di.fm
 
Boards of Canada? Aphex Twin? Amon Tobin? Nine Inch Nails remixes?

A lot of the best electronic artist have a few great songs in the style you're looking for.

Like Qonfused said, BoC and Aphex Twin are some that I know for a fact have songs like that.

Haha, Kouler's avatar looked like yours I guess, I had a feeling it might not have been you while I was typing but didn't bother checking :p
 
The other two are trash, but this... This is brilliant.

All hail Brian Eno.

Southern Sun is trash? Oakenfold is a pretty mediocre producer but that vocal track makes for a classic. Try some remixes.

In regards to the original poster,
The best suggestion so far is probably Shpongle and Boards of Canada. Aphex Twin and Amon Tobin I would hardly consider psychadelic. Then again they both attempt a very broad range of musical styles and as such are very hit-and-miss. All of those artists, however, are pretty far away from the dance side of what most people consider techno. I'll give you some names from the other.

Mauro Picotto (Trance)
John Digweed (Trance)
Armin Van Buuren (Trance)
Pendulum (Drum n' Bass)
This (House. Absolutely love this track.)
Sunchasers feat. Yana Kay - Remember Me (Drum n' Bass, a single song)
This (House. However, there are better remixes of it that sound more ethereal.)

I'm reluctant to give you more house stuff considering you wanted psychadelic but keep in mind that is probably the most talent saturated genre of electronic music right now. Do you mind vocals?

I don't care for "Southern Sun". Or any of Oakenfold's material, for that matter. Unless some remix completely rapes the original track and turns it into its bitch, I'm not interested.

Pendulum, another artist I've seen people get into a craze over recently, is the same.
 
the ambient remix of southern sun is great. it, together with quite alot of chillout remixes of trance/techno got great nostalgic value for me though, which is why i enjoy it. the original track is pretty crap though. the only oakenfold track i like is ready steady go.

brian eno ****wins

what're some good fast techno songs? Not like rave music, but kinda like dance techno, something fast and something that'll get you pumped up.

You could Silent Shout by the Knife, it's got some pretty fast songs....I don't know if theyll pump you up though.

Everything he just listed is pure awesome. Double emphasis on The Knife- I just got into them and they're fantastic :D
 
Paul Oakenfold - Requiem For A Dream (Leama's Dream Mix)
Aphex Twin - Stone In Focus
Paul Oakenfold - Zoo York
Underworld - Cowgirl < The only one from them I like

My favorite would be Supernova by Transa, but I think that would be too much rave-like. I play it during Dystopia matches.
