Hello all, please recommend me some Detroit techno tracks. Thanks! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
huh?.... ummm |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
derrick may- strings of life, nude photo, r-theme, icon carl craig- landcruising, elements sean deason- allegory and metaphor, phunk anything by kenny larkin, stacey pullen, detroit escalator co., claude young, underground resistance, jeff mills, rob hood, juan atkins, scan 7.....that's all i can think of right now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if i can strongly recommend anything then it's the whole allegory & metaphor album by sean deason....it came out in 2000, but it's probably the best detroit techno record to come out in a very long time. |

Vaya sorpresa, tu presencia y ayuda en este tema son muy apreciados. Como somos muy pocos los que hablamos español y menos los que son de México empezaba a sentirme solitario... gracias otra vez por toda la info!! |

|
|
Neto: de nada otra vez, es muy raro encontrar a alguien de mexico aqui, pero es una muy buena sorpresa y me da mucho gusto conocer a gente de mexico que le gusta este tipo de musica ...aunque no escribo español perfecto, si trato y ojala que me puedes entender bien. :) |

DJ Rolando 'Knights of the Jaguar'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you serious i bought that album, when i saw jeff mills had something to do with it but i only listened to it once so far-and even then it was very rapidly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's also an italian record - a remix of a 70's german record called e2-e4 by manuel goshing from ash-ra tempel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
phuture are also from chicago - part of the chicago acid scene and not from detroit - innovator by mayday is the cd to get - a retrospective of most of derrik may's stuff - but best to get transmat - metroplex and kms 12"s |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also stuff like the every dog has it's day lp's by jeff mills - the underground resistance interstellar fugitives album and anything by drexciya dopplereffect and transllusion |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anything by dj dan/needle damage |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
see also: derrick may aphrodite juan atkins richie haughton |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know their time has way gone it was good music then but now it is not that interesting |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphrodite is a drum and bass guy from essex uk- richie hawtin is canadian not from detroit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love it - it rocks the dace floor and the dynamics are powerfu - and the rythms are funky l not like digital rubbish like kid606 that could barley make a flea rumble |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, I've the Musik album by Plastikman, very good indeed yes very good for the dancefloor; i'm doin a little research to put cool danceable music on parties just different scenarios for different people "punk" 606 have his merit too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but kid 606 is whiteboy punk stuff - i i don't like whiteboy punk stuff .. i like music with a wider frequncy range like dub/house/afx/techno/funk/hip hop not this thin indie shit.. anyway for more detroit techno the best place to buy and hear is www.submerge.com then check www.undergroundresistance.com |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I see. thanks for the links. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it's funny that someone from the u.k. knows more about detroit techno than me (former detroit resident) ... DAMN YOU INTERNET!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh and both richie and aphrodite spent a lot of time in detroit, sorta like how juan atkins and derrick may spent a lot of time in the u.k- i consider them all permanent honorary detroit djs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think you all should check out the recently released album by K-Rock...he's not from detroit, but the promising soundclips sounds like old school techno/electro, but more rephlexy if youy know what i mean. the rephlex site says it's "electro/braindance", whatever that means. Anyway i ordered it yesterday, yay |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HURRAY FOR YOU |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
here are some other artists i didn't mention before, not as well known as the "big" names, but might be worth a listen i guess: optic nerve, octave one, eddie fowlkes, anthony shakir, terrance dixon, k-hand, john beltran/indio(from lansing, but still considered "detroit")...other stuff worth mentioning, but more on the electro tip: drexciya, aux 88, dopplereffekt/japanese telecom, adult, ectomorph(from ann arbor, but still condsidered "detroit") |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Isn't that a re-release? the samples in Rephlex sound interesting |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who aphrodite the hapy house/jungle guy - soundws nothing like detroit music at all and richie hawtin's more german style minimal acid - just been buying dance records since i was 12 - the english were the first people to buy chicago and detroit music apart from the black chicagoans and detroit clubbers - you do remember the 1988 summer ofd love don't you - the acid house and rave scene happened in teh uk before it went to europe on the whole |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah from hearing him at rephlex raves mcing he's very much a cockney - good record as well |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Neto:yes they do sound interesting, and it's new stuff as far as i know. btw, my favourite electro tracks: Anthony rother - 'destroy him my robots' and 'Darkness' Aux88 - 'My mind goes into programing' Drexciya:Wave jumper Dopplereffekt:Voice activated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yesss...Drexciya |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
jeff mills had a dj gig here in finland a while ago and he was so great that my legs _still_ hurt! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't forget underground resistance |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cybotron |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, Cybotron! The music is very dated but it belongs to the roots of techno. Juan Atkins was involved in the early 80's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just look for underground resistance.....problem solved! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

808 State's Newbuild is really not Detroit style at all though it shares a similar DIY aesthetic. It is pure acid house. To get good detroit stuff, you cannot go wrong with the trinity of Juan Atkins (as Cybotron or Model 500), Derrick May (as Rhythim Is Rhythim) and Kevin Saunderson (as The Reese Project, Tronik House, Reese or E-Dancer). Of the three though Kevin is my least favourite. K Hand is another. I really really like her spin on things. Also I have a soft spot for female techno artists. Her debut album 'On a journey' and her 1998 album 'The Art Of Music' are absolute masterpieces. Of the more recent artists, you could try Jeff Mills (as Underground Resistance) and Carl Craig (as Innerzone Orchestra, Paperclip People, Psyche/BFC and 69). Kenny Larkin (try Azimuth) makes some great music as well. |
