You want to start listening to mixes? I presume that's what you mean.
Check out:
Boiler Room
Resident Advisor
MixesDB
Factmag
Also if you like artists who focus on the album format like Four Tet, Caribou, Jamie xx etc - look up some of their mixes on YouTube and see if you like them
But just checking out some Boiler Room mixes is probably a good starting point
Also trawling Mixcloud for artists you like

Also I couldn't think of a worse way to listen to techno than listening to an album of the stuff. It's literally designed for DJing
go to the club you waste
start with the best one of last year

Some techno albums are fantastic and a great way to listen to the genre.

Also don't forget Mixmag, occasionally they have a quality mix on youtube. My favourite:

2 i like are Vocal city by Luomo and Letters From The Jester by The Timewriter. Correct me if i'm wrong but i'm pretty sure they are techno.

The thing is the tunes are good but the songs just seem designed for the purpose of mixing.
Not knocking you for listening to them as albums, I just think techno sounds better in mix format without any pauses between the tracks
>>64412360
Those are more deep house than techno
>>64412360

try Varg - Star Alliance
Acronym - June
Polar Inertia - Kinematic Optics (technically an ep can pass for an album)
Voices From The Lake - K
Sandwell District - s/t
