i think you have it wrong...

to say it started in detroit is kind of...short sighted

but yeah go for it ask only dudes from detroit and ask them where it all started...im sure you'd get a non biased answer. :roll:

Juan Atkins
Kevin Saunderson
Derrick May
Eddie Fawlkes

Read interviews with these guys,check out both the 'High Tech Soul' & 'Universal Techno' documentaries,read 'Techno Rebels' and take it from there.

Everyone who's someone in techno will be accessed from that startpoint.

Even right up to todays innovators.
signatures suck

exactly. no one can deny the huge contribution that detroit has made to techno, but to say that it all started in detroit is way too simplistic. there was so much more going on than that...

I'd say it all started in Düsseldorf with Ralf & Florian.

duh!
my (quite short) experience on the pleasures of techno music(?) taught me that what is or was good, will come to you if and when you are ready.
