I tend to think of the whole shebang, that whole spectrum of music ranging from something like "Kaotic Harmony" or "Icon" all the way over to the Tranquiliser EP or "Seawolf". But I'd probably also say that there's something like a "median" Detroit Techno sound, halfway in between the two edges of the spectrum, that's probably exemplified by things like the fourth Red Planet EP and tracks like "The Art Of Stalking".
