AFAIK, they are "New Wave". No? Grated though, the Techno article states that it started in the mid-80's: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techno Although, personally, I dont recall the techno classification until the 90's. Sure, its certainly rooted in the late 80's, but was it a defined sound/genre then? Seems a stretch to me. AFAICR, mid-to-late 80's was House, and Techno wasn't established until the 90's. I'm open to being wrong. It wouldnt surprise me.
