Detroit Techno/Electro love thread

Post by promo » Wed Jun 10, 2009 5:20 pm

Still a massive love for me. Have so much love for all the artists and originators especially the main man Juan Atkins. Haven't really been keeping up with what's new in the scene. Anyways I've been listening to some classic shit recently such as:

Infiniti
Suburban Knight
Underground Resistance
The Black Dog
Stasis
Model 500

What's your fav shit or anything new to recommend?

Nice. 8)

also have to say that you forgot carl craig (psyche - crackdown!??!) and mike banks (love red planet)

but...

my fucking goodness what a list! fuck, i thought i was one of the only people that listened to stasis still. Disco 4000, Circuit Funk, Inspiration, Steve Pickton's other stuff under Soul 223. man, that guy is a great producer. thought about making a thread on him a while ago, but i never did. you got any mixes he ever did?

you hear of likemind label?
http://www.discogs.com/label/Likemind . I'd suggest to get everything off this, unfortunately small, label. it is all good. check out ART then too, and their objets de art releases.

Completely agree. That guy is a legend without a doubt and he certainly has techno soul! Oh now thinking about how could I not mention B12!!! Hey man you heard of Neuropolitique?

there's loads of stuff, but first off I'd recommend his albums 'Landcruising' and 'More Songs About Food And Revolutionary Art', as well as some of his stuff under his various aliases, particularly the Psyche/BFC stuff, as well as the 69 album 'The Sound of Music'

his DJ-Kicks was really good as well, too
