It`s hard to tell if you are taking the piss or just writing badly, as you`ve done this before.

Or maybe your lacking? Do you think Detroit techno is overrated and overhyped? Do you think it own more to house roots than techno?

I dont know about overrated but when people say they're only into the "detroit buzz" or "thats not Detroit enough for me" I think that is thick. Any techno with some melody and deep element can be called detroit. I dont like putting the title detroit on tunes anymore because most of the artists making these tracks arent from Detroit and even though I know about the roots (Boring!) it doesnt make sense that we should still be calling it that.

I wouldn't have said it owes more of its roots to house though. The detroit sound to me is more electronic than house music. If you hear the house sounds of chicago like moods and grooves, dance mania, trax and dust traxx you can hear the difference in where each is coming from.

I think this post is overated and overhyped and lacking.

i barely even know where to begin with this...

:bash:

ok, now let's clear something up. what you ask is like asking if blues comes from hip-hop rather than rock. totally anachronistic. techno WAS detroit techno, and nothing else, until it spread OUT of detroit and evolved (both within and outside of detroit).

now, if you want to ask: does detroit techno sound more similar to house than to most of today's techno, that's another story altogether...

Compare to now terms it is more house than anything. Before Detroit there were Techno, its called Kraftwerk :cheese:

:) that wasn't called techno...of course neither was the detroit sh*t until neil rushton came around...and i think if you look at cybotron and other early stuff, it's really different from kraftwerk, though of course owing a great debt to them. but let's face it...there's no UR, beltram, bolland, without the 1st wave, and no evolution from there to today's techno without them, just as there's no cybotron without kraftwerk. so props are due, whether we are into detroit sh*t or not.

but on the other point, yeah, you have a point, and i think people like derrick may and kevin saunderson would agree. i'd even go a step further and say mainstream techno has as much in common (or more) with the cold, sleek, robotic early chicago house than it does with some 1st wave detroit techno...

end of discussion i think, without detroit techno, there would be no techno.

also 8+2=10, lay off the insults please
