This article kind of depressed me, as it's mostly about the past. Sure there are a few good new tracks on the Still Music comp, but it's patchy at best and not any kind of real development of the Detroit sound.
This article won't change anything. Did DEMF / Movement make any difference to how actual house or techno are perceived or enjoyed by mainstream audiences? I doubt it. Plus it's now about 25 years since techno emerged - what makes anyone think that peeps will suddenly 'get' it? Are EDM kids (I guess they're kids) into music from that era? As a teen I sure wasn't much interested in music from the mid-'50s. It's great that the artists mentioned are still playing out and making the kind of great music they always have, but that would have happened regardless of the mainstream anyway. Just my 02 - this list is pretty quiet these days... p
