Just looked-up Juan Atkins on the iTunes Music Store.
There's a lot of classic stuff on there (including some of the great recent New Religion material.)
But wait. What is this odd-looking entry on an LP called 'Christmas Eclectic' (genre: 'holiday') with a track called 'Snowflakes Falling'? The compilation appears to be a sort of Christmas gift record.
I'm not wanting to believe that the track 'Snowflakes Falling' is actually the man himself. Going by the sample, it's about +12 on the cheesy, cornball, schamltz scale (add your own adjectives!). It's got kids singing, twee lyrics, triangles etc.
But I have to say: those chord changes, that melody, that bassline, even the synth sequencing .... they *do* have a certain familiar feel to them. Someone tell me I'm way off-beam or this may turn into a little cause celebre!
