It could only be done in relation to other music if it could be done at all. If someone has lived on an island all their life and has never experienced music period it be would an exercise in futility to try and convey detroit techno.

Im from Detroit originally and have been listening to detroit techno since 1992 and I still cannot convey it but I know it when I hear it :D
