I just got one thing to say in this discussion first of all I'm a
big fan of Kenny's music, but it don't really like his racial standpoints.
And about the copying thing it would be easy to say that without Kraftwerk
or even other german producers (E2-E4) there wouldn't be Techno. But I
won't. All I'm interested in is hearing good music (and reading about good
music) and that's important. And just saying that they're copying TSS TSS.
That's no argument, everyone is influenced by good music (well unfortunatly
not everyone ;-)) it is what you do with these influences that count there
are people like Aphex Twin & Christian Vogel who do completely different
things.

I find myself wondering where you guys are coming from...
It seems your opinions regarding the state of music from Detroit is
superficial at best...Where would your "avant-guarde" dj's be
without someone
to proceed them..to give them something to copy?Everyone has
influeneces ..but
in regards to techno those from other than the Detroit area are
doing
exactly what the Beatles did with rock-and-roll ..copying
a black mans soul and claiming as their own and the uneducated pop
music fans
just consuming whatever's directed at them.All of the e_notes
regarding this
topic show an extreme lack of knowlegde regarding music from Detroit
and it's
quality and to prove this I need only say one name
....Kenny Dixon jr....ever heard of him?????
