Thanks for the props in the starf u c king competition BMB, but you are way off with your Atkins biog there...

UR was kicked off by "Mad" Mike Banks, Jeff Mills and Robert Hood (who was initially their MC). By that time Juan Atkins and the others you mention had long since made their place on the techno map.

Juan Atkins is one of what is called the Belleville 3, the other two being Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson (Belleville possibly being the area they were from and I think the school they went to). Fowlkes was also around at the same time but doesn't seem to get the same props.

Juan Atkins is aka Model 500, Cybotron and Infiniti, and is responsible for some of the earliest releases now known as 'techno', such as Clear from the early 80s and Cosmic Cars. In fact, it is Juan who is said to have coined the name 'techno' for the music.

Given the level of knowledge among the newbies here (and no, I'm not slagging, just noticing) I feel it necessary to point out that my post above where I said: he makes hard tribal loop bangin' stuff and has 46 records out on Primate, yo. was in fact a joke.

beleville was the school that the 3 all wen`t to school with each other.

ha ha atkins on primate, i could just see it now, bringing an ep out with primates new signing, mauro picotto :lol:

JIM "THE ANVIL" NEIDHART was at the COUNTRY CLUB in Yeovil????

You have got to be kidding me!!!!!!

How in God's name would he wind up in such a remote place???

hahhaha!

That is the most bizzare thing I have heard in ages!

-JOHNNY

Oh and for the person who wanted to know what the Anvil looked like...

He was stocky, about 6'1, 275 pounds or so...

and he had a long red goatee & hairy chest and wore pink & black.....

He was tag team partner with Brett "Hitman" Hart in the mid to late 80s and they were known as the Heart Foundation.

Hope that helps..
