For Klonky The first thing I would recommend if you are looking for something off kilter would be anything on the Frieland label. It is a Mike Ink based project that was intended to replace Studio One. Very minimal, very weird and klonky, these records are very much mix tools. Think of that Mike Ink Polkatrax vibe with very difficult listening digital timbres. Studio One...need I say more. As an interesting side note; all synth sounds on the Frieland records were made with the Yamaha FS1r. For Techno On a more dance tip, I would recommend "Eleventh" by Exos on Force Inc. It is pretty dancefloor, but it still has the CR/BC sound going for it. I find that I pitch it down to -15% when I listen to it. Good stuff if you want driving techno with BC elements. "Headphoneasy Rider" on Black Market International by Baby Ford is another good double pack to check out. It is just a nice minimal techno album with interesting percussion and good sounds, with a few ambient tracks thrown in for good measure. It isn't a basic channel sound alike, it has its own sound. You can put it in a downtempo 4/4 minimal techno set and it will fit right in. It is dancefloor enough to fit into a set, but it is still listening oriented. For Ambient Any of the Gas releases: Konigsforst, Zauberberg, Modern EP...These are more minimal dark ambient oriented, but they are great records. Very dark, very moody, of all the music Wolfgang Voight has released, these records are my favorite. Any of Thomas Koner's solo Material(Aubrite, Permafrost, Teimo, Nanatak Gongamur) this is ultra minimal dark ambient. Thomas Koner is half of Porter Rick's and his earlier work is sonically in the same vein. Think of Port Gentil at half speed without the rhythmic elements.
