Tech-house is one of my favorite styles of music. there's 
a lot of labels and artists/labels in this style. some of the
best tech-house labels are Ferox, Phono, Primitive Urges,
Soma, Music Man, Generations, Palette, and Parallel to
name just a few. When i get home this evening i'll post
my top 10 tech-house releases.

btw: i second brock's recommendation of the Chocolate
Chords album. it's fantastic.
