Detroit Techno - The Birth



I Know most of the people in here are not into Techno Like I am but I always found this music so fascinating and innovative. I came to this discover this music alittle after I started deejaying freestyle and house music. And to me this is what electronic music is all about. If you look around today in especially the urban citys of the united states that is ruled by the hip hop world and you play this music to an urban latino or black kid they will bash this as being white boy music because of the way it sounds and because it's too fast. The people now adays only like what they hear on the radio if you scan the radio in your car your going to get about 3 hip hop stations and how many electronic dance stations do you get? To be honest none...! ktu plays crap and it was good at one point when they had the dance factory sessions but it was only during the weekends from 10pm-4am. Why don't radio play House, Techno, anything that is hot during the day? I don't understand it. That's why kids are brainwashed from commercial radio. Well anyway let me stop talking and check out this video it's very short. Plus i put a couple links to check em out also.---12inchjunkie AKA DJ Danny F

i feel you on this,another reason why nyc is just urban music, fucking walking down a block with bars and clubs and they all play urban.dont get me wrong i love soulful r&b and some old school 80's-90' rap but damn.you try to find a spot to dj in nyc and its hard. though now new owners are starting to want house,trance,and techno in clubs so lets hope this trend continues.the only way your gonna get this good music is through xm and sirus radio.

Yeah your right!And if you were to go to Europe it's all about dance music. Thats why all the Electronic Dance Deejays here fly out there.
