Hi Jason, thanks...im sorry i came in late on the thread, because it seemed like an interesting topic and i had some views to express :) i see what you mean about how the current times are not the best for being too intellectual - tkae for example the formulaic 80s rehash we are subjected to as well as the current obsession with all things frivilous. i jst wanted to add that i was talking about the "major players" in detroit techno, not the whole movement per se...
