I cannot verify all the dates about antique synthesizers... However there are 
plenty of errors I've spotted here too!

* 1975 The Disco era starts in New York's clubs by the hand of producers like 
Giorgio Moroder and Tom Moulton. Moulton invents the 12 single and the 
Disco-Mix 
  The underground Hip Hop scene emerges in New Yok's Bronx and Brooklyn 
neighborhoods. 

Disco and hip hop were going well before 1975 - first 12 single was 1974; 
first commercially released 12 1976...  As far as I am aware Giorgio Moroder 
was not a New York producer but I may be wrong here...

* 1976 Grandmaster Flash releases his first album Super Rappin' with his new 
band The Furious Five, one of the first commercial albums of Hip Hop. 

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five released their debut 12 Superrappin on 
Enjoy; their first album was The Message on Sugarhill, either 1981 or 1982.

* 1980 Sugarhill Gang releases Rapper's Delight taking the Hip Hop culture to 
the mainstream. 

No, this was in 1979!

* 1986 Afrika Bambaataa releases Planet Rock, a classic Hip Hop album which 
established the bases of Techno and Electro genres.  

My copy must have fell into a time warp and ended up back in 1982.

* 1987 The Acid House scene starts in Chicago by the hand of Herbert J, DJ 
Pierre and Spanky. 
  The Acid House scene starts in Manchester. 

I assume these were different acid house scenes!!?!?!

I will leave spotting other errors to other people similarly appalled by such 
poor quality research - according to the site:

This Techno Guide is what we believe the most comprehensive guide of 
Electronic Music in the Internet to this date. This is the result of 2 years of 
research through all sorts of sources (books, magazines, record labels, and 
internet). This guide is in constant renovation so any information will be 
welcomed

OK, serious question here - who thinks that this site is actually a
*spoof*? I'm becoming more and more suspicious the more of these daft
errors I see! Super Rappin' indeed... :)

That reminds me of a comedian I saw a few years ago who told how his dad had 
started to become more savvy with modern music trends... huh, listen to 
that... he told him jungle music!
