Wighnomy Brothers
Robag Wruhme and Soren Bodner have been making music together for 17 years and it shows. Their sets last for hours and never exhaust with bottomless creativity. They are definitely my favorite of the Kompact techno tribe. I had they pleasure of being at their US debut last year and it was easily the best night I've ever had at Middlesex. They really know how to work the crowd on the dancefloor with a control that must come from their European experience and can be hard to come by in local acts. Plus they look like Ewoks. You know you're not going to get a conventional set when see these two get up. They approach music with a pensive if not spiritual respect. Robag produces most of what they play but it's telling that Soren produces as well and doesn't release it to anyone, not even Robag! I'm sure I'm not the only one dying to hear what he's been up to that's too sacred to share.
Here's one great recording of a set they did in Athens 2007:

There's an interview with Robag here for more info.
