I just found this yesterday. some of you may already have this but if you don't it is a great mix. No surprise there, Beyer rarely disappoints. (link and text snagged off of houston beats)

This week Swedish tall guy of techno Adam Beyer proves he still likes the thump, weighing in with a peaktime techno workout.
Together with the likes of Cari Lekebush and Joel Mull, Adam Beyer carved out a name for himself in the Swedish techno scene in the late nineties and early noughties with pulverising, loop-driven techno on outputs such as Primate and his own labels Drumcode and Code Red.
But last year's 'Fabric 22' showed Beyer was also a bit of a softie, unifying the harder stuff techno with the minimal bleeps of Alex Under and Dominik Eulberg. At the same time Beyer's 'A Walking Contradiction' was snatched up by Richie Hawtin and John Acquaviva's Plus8 label, becoming one of the biggest tracks of the year, later popping up on mix CDs by Luciano and Miss Kittin.
On his RA podcast Beyer pulls another U-turn with a slick but banging mix where there's not a beat out of place. This one increased productivity in the RA office, we assure you.
