Detroit techno and the like...

Scubadevils · 2011-10-20 21:47:55

Having discussed with ianuss in the track of the day thread, decided there was the need for yet another youtube thread... The 'and the like' bit allows for the European side of Detroit techno, so the stuff that crossed over or was being done around the same time, fair to say there was probably a similar sound evolving…

Actually its a disgrace that this thread has existed till now without a mention of The Martian! I think this track is likely to be my most posted track on boards... nothing quite like it, I always end up wanting to turn the volume up more & more - would kill to hear this out again.

Cool, lets work out something for a Christmas night of Detroit techno, sometime in December? The only charity this time will be for aging blokes (and burds!) in need of a night out of decent music :pac:

I love pretty much anything Drexciya, even the more obscure stuff they did or Stinson in other projects. I think the album 'Lifestyles of the Laptop Cafe' by The Other People Place is probably my most listened to though, just an all round great album that works any time of day!

This was the 2nd last album by Stinson and this track the last on the album - although not his actual last release, this kinda has that feel to it.

Another essential that I've mentioned in various threads when it comes to electro is ERP (Gerard Hanson), otherwise known as Convextion for his dub techno stuff.

E.R.P. - Lodestone

Definitely one that when I've the cash I intend to pick up all of his 12"s.
