Don't get me wrong, I like may's production, I love it actually, but there's so much good new stuff around - how come it does not get mentioned in this encyclopaedia entries?
boring??? not at all.. detroit techno is a big part of this forum. i have massive respect for these guys as do most of our members. were it not for them i certainly wouldn't be here neither would all of you. sure there's great new stuff around.. that's your own opinion about detorit - respect - but boring? no way on this planet :lol:
you should read more carefully, mark ... I suggest you re-read the excerpts from your quote, maybe then you will realize you were just demolishing another strawman. I was talking about the encyclopaedia entry, not about detroit techno in general. On the other hand, I know now where this detroit-revering stuff is coming from - are you sure you did not write the wiki article :lol:

I just wanted to point out that there is a lot happening in techno that does not get mentioned in such articles - all you get is the hagiography everybody is more than familiar with. not my idea of an encylopaedia article, that's all ...
