Although Liasons Dangereuse did stuff earlier than that I think.

Maybe adrenalin by Throbbing Gristle was earlier.
I don`t know. I`ve not really been anal enough to check dates.



Techno music didn`t start in detroit anyway, they were just taking something already there and moving it into a dance based arena.
The word techno being related to beat based electronic music started with Juan atkins and co though.

I think you`d be very hard pressed to truly find the origins of techno though.
Musique Concret?

Glass?

Stockhausen?
