You should probably pay more attention then, but don't worry, you're not the only one.

Whoever got you into techno seems slightly irrelevent to me. In fact, this whole thread should probably have been locked after the first post, as MARK EG already answered his own question!
Like it was said, its very hard to find a unique root to techno. If there is one, well almost everybody will agree it comes from detroit, whoever is assciated to this city. Ill also add Aphew Twin, though he came a bit later, but he DID innovate.

Th thing about all these london techno people : they are certainly lengends to their fans, but as said death on a stick, they got some inspiration from the earlier techno artists, whoever they are. I dont say they were their only influnce of course.

So thats it, though some originators of techno have become weak since that time, that's THEM who are hte true techno legends. An ingoring that, IS ignorance.

So for the London techno fans, dont feel frustrated of this. Keep beleiving in your own legends, but as death on a stick, you are ignoring a part of techno. And ingoring means "purposely disconsider" and not "not being aware of".

So to concluse let's stop this fith. I think everyone has agreed there are some people who orginated techno, though the list will be over than 3 people. But saying death on a stick is pretentious is a shitty attitude. Is it the only argument you have found to say what he says is not valuable ???? Do you have to consider the people's attitude to explain you disagree with waht they say.

Hey come on, human behaving and musical tastes have nothing to do. So please lets stop fights, we are here to share ideas and respect what each other says.
