It suddenly occured to me that what I call Detroit Techno may be a bit different to what other people think. When someone says to you "Detroit Techno", what do you immediately think of? a) the hard industrial vibe "hard music for a hard city"? or b) the melodic mid-tempo beats of say, World to World, or Never On Sunday or something. there is such amazing variety, that's why the term 'detroit techno' means so much. it's a loaded term. there's the quiet/gorgeous/lush slow 69 tracks, stuff like Kenny Larkin's midtempo and downtempo cuts. there's the classic transmat era definitive dancefloor funk like Nude Photo, Icon, Kaos, etc... there's housier stuff like R-Tyme, KDJ, Andres, 3 Chairs. There's electro like Cybotron / m500 and computer-muzik roboty sounding stuff like Nite Drive Thru Babylon, Dopplereffekt, Drexciya, some UR. Even within UR look at the amazing range and variety of labels under one roof.There's the hammering of Axis stomper warehouse techno anthems, and the quiet/contemplative side of Mills in some of the Millsart / Metropolis stuff. There's Rob Hood as minimal microscope funky atom examiner of "pure" distilled techno, then you've got Hood in his stuff on Duet and Floorplan, totally lush and different... And 'nighttime world'! The same producer(!) Amazing.. Then there's cool out jazzy things like The Detroit Experiment project, which is something I can play on a sunday morning and still get a deep detroit vibe.There's funk/nu soul stuff like Amp Fiddler, Dwele, Innerzone Orchestra. All these are very different sides of the music (not even just 'dance' music) spectrum and that's why detroit electronic music is so great, it s varied. You can get a complete diet of quality electronic music from hard raw stompers to deep future music to laid back modern blues/house to just about anything in between, and never leave the 'detroit' section of the crates. :) an interesting question. people i talk to get into "detroit" techno through one door, and then find all these OTHER doors of detroit sounds opening as they look around inside. Dumb metaphor, but i hope you know what i mean it's so much bigger than just one sound, yet there's this intangible thing that ties the mood together... it's powerful. -- Matt MacQueen http://SonicSunset.com
RE: (313) Detroit Techno
The original question, IIRC, was whether Detroit Techno (as a term) brought to mind abstract, string-laden melodies Of course, the question, "what does Detroit techno mean today?" is open, and answerable by all who care. Whether they're Aril Brikha (not from Detroit) or KDJ (militantly from it, and of it), all who care contribute to the ongoing answer. Put simply, the *breadth* of the field, and the willingness to engage and invent, are what characterize early techno. And I think, given the immense musical variety of those who still point back to Detroit, these things still characterize Detroit Techno today. I am constantly drawn back to sounds of Detroit Techno, because it is one of the few places where I am presented discussion related not only to the music but the character of dance & electronic culture. Techno introduced me to the concept of society through music. In terms of communicating ideas and creating connections, 'Detroit' the music identity is a catalyst. As a discussion platform, the music is a structure which engages people. As a creative reference, speaks of a purposed thinking. And this is a fairly protected identity. Detroit ' is passively 'non-commercial'. It eludes to a more a organic path. It relates to a fluency & naturalness in musical ideas. It suggests harmony in the circuitry, beauty in the machine state. Defiance, hope, succession, mastery, conscious, fearless, humanity. I understand Detroit Techno as a language and a culture. .simon -- . . . . . . ... .. .. // \\ gain more interest http://www.obscure.co.nz // \\ . . . . ... . . . .

Re: (313) Detroit Techno
Ken - my first Detroit party was the 313 5-year anniversary party in December 1999, and the last was Monday night at the Werks in June 2003. While I feel qualified to say what Detroit Techno means to me (for me, the rhythms - that "shuffle beat" with lots of hi-hats, etc. - is a key element compared to "other" music), I'll defer to the likes of Yussel, Garrett, Dan Sicko, Ian Malbon and Diana Potts when it comes to Detroit club music. Alex - I've got several friends in SF, but I've never lived there a day - I live in LA :) While I remember The Units, I don't think I ever saw them - they didn't play down my way too often. I was pretty skint in the late 70's Punk days so I couldn't get to 1/10th the number of shows I wish I could've gone to ... I assume you've seen http://www.synthpunk.org/units/history.html then?

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
The original question, IIRC, was whether Detroit Techno (as a term) brought to mind abstract, string-laden melodies (the kind that demand emotional as well as physical response) or abstract-minimal-but-bangin' nonetheless tracks like the ones that have long made Mills famous. Of course, the question, "what does Detroit techno mean today?" is open, and answerable by all who care. Whether they're Aril Brikha (not from Detroit) or KDJ (militantly from it, and of it), all who care contribute to the ongoing answer.

(This is, BTW, exactly what Simon Reynolds continually argues about Detroit and Detroit-o-philes in _Generation Ecstacy_. A big raspberry to him.) But asking whether Hood and Mills count as mainstream Detroit techno actually pins quite nicely the *historical* (not present-interpretive) component of the question. What if ALL of Mills' output is really taken as a "centre" or "mainstream" of Detroit Techno. I mean everything from Wizard sets (which are contemporaneous to the prep scene in Detroit, and predate the very coinage "techno" as do the early works of Atkins, May & Saunderson) to his work with the industrial Final Cut to his abstract soundtrack works to the hardest Punisher & Axis releases... I don't mean to diminish the work of anyone else with this example, but if you consider Mills as the very centre around which Detroit Techno has whirled and developed, you get an answer that takes you back to the very beginning: In the beginning, there was a crowd of kids who tried different things. They experimented -- with analog synths, with turntables, with backtracking their way out of mixes, they tried on early hip-hop electro mixing techniques, and were driven both by the mad techne (technical wizardry, whatever) of pounding rhythms and by the desire to express something through machines, without recourse to what they clearly saw as limiting forms of balladry & storytelling in R&B, rock-n-roll, etc. They have truck with hard percussion stripped of all melody, and they put out lush instrumental soundtracks that sound like they come from American Minimal composers like Steve Reich or John Cage. They try nearly *everything*. Put simply, the *breadth* of the field, and the willingness to engage and invent, are what characterize early techno. And I think, given the immense musical variety of those who still point back to Detroit, these things still characterize Detroit Techno today. Please continue to discuss at length. That's what this list has been here for -- ten years now. -marc c.

Of course, that *totally* missed the point, and I remember he was getting so many emails from people on 313 that he even put up a little notice saying "if you're on the 313 list, don't email me OK!?"... However, I do think that Hood and Mills count as Detroit techno (obviously!) even though they're not what might be called "mainstream" Detroit techno. One of the things I most like about Detroit techno in general is the fact that it's quite difficult to pigeonhole - you go to a Detroit techno party, and you're going to hear a very wide range of music as the night progresses. Most other styles of dance music can't really boast that degree of internal variation, I don't think.

The majority of people on this list aren't here for hard techno, I reckon; mailing lists like G-Tech cater for that audience. While people aren't going to get shouted down for mentioning things like "Punisher" on here, you could probably guess that the "average" 313er is someone who likes a bit of the hard stuff when out in some dark sweaty club at 4am on a Sunday morning, but who generally looks for either a bit more funk or a bit more cerebral involvement from their electronic music. I might be wrong though! Who knows what the hundreds of 313 lurkers out there might be thinking? :) Brendan

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
Ok, the reason I called on Ian Cheshire to join in is because - now this i v. apt :-) - he's currently engaged in an intermittent tour in Germany called 'The Detroit Impressions' tour. And I think the idea is that the artists involved, inc. Ian, give their own 'impression' of what Detroit techno is mostly all about. Now anyone who knows Ian, knows that apart from being a very decent bloke, also knows that the techno he plays is usually at least upbeat and quite often what you could say is 'hard'. The thing is, he is to me perhaps the most hands-on authority I've met about djing in Detroit (I think you've played in Detroit quite a few times Ian , right?). So he probably knows more than most what goes down in the techno world in Detroit, and what goes down well. Greg Earle, the reason I requested that you join in is that I just remember you talking about going to parties in Detroit many years ago and up to the present day. Correct me and forgive me if I confabulate (a rare occurence, right?!?! ;-) Overall though, I think I'm with Brendan on this. For me, Detroit techno covers a lot of styles. It's hard, or it's purist, or it's melodic, or it's minimal, or it's electro! :-) Often it's got elements of all the above and usually, most people would agree that whatever 'funk' is, that undefinable element can often seemt to be in what we call 'Detroit Techno'. Just to give an example of what I'm listening to a lot at the moment which I'd say falls into the above - 'R U Ready' by X-Ile, on Direct Beat. Now of course, this is what most would call 'electro'. But to me the essence of what Detroit 'techno' (heh) is all about is in that record, and many more quite like it. k >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 10:57 AM >To: 313@hyperreal.org >Subject: Re: (313) Detroit Techno > > >>Los Hermanos 'Quetzal' - for me that's the bullseye. > >and I'd argue that that record is pretty average. > >ha ha ha ha ha, lets argue all day, it's fun. > >: ) >_ > >- End of message text > >This e-mail is sent by the above named in their >individual, non-business capacity and is not on >behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers. > >PricewaterhouseCoopers may monitor outgoing and incoming >e-mails and other telecommunications on its e-mail and >telecommunications systems.

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
I remember when I first came across that Flash "guide to electronic music" that was put together by a bloke called Ashok or something, which attempted to sum up Detroit techno with an audio snippet of Hood's "Pole Position" and a spiel about how Detroit techno is supposed to make you feel quite disoriented and lost. Of course, that *totally* missed the point, and I remember he was getting so many emails from people on 313 that he even put up a little notice saying "if you're on the 313 list, don't email me OK!?"... However, I do think that Hood and Mills count as Detroit techno (obviously!) even though they're not what might be called "mainstream" Detroit techno. One of the things I most like about Detroit techno in general is the fact that it's quite difficult to pigeonhole - you go to a Detroit techno party, and you're going to hear a very wide range of music as the night progresses. Most other styles of dance music can't really boast that degree of internal variation, I don't think.

Re: (313) Detroit Techno
I personally am open to whatever - I think one of the things which makes Detroit techno so powerful is this sheer depth, range and quality of its influences - I find it pretty sad when people start policing what can and cannot be discussed with relation to the music we all love.The sound influenced by Detroit is certainly my first love, but I am also passionate about all music that matches that level of quality - I think that musical purism is just about the most pathetic trait to be found amongst people in the scene (though that's a WHOLE different rant!!) For my part though, the mention of 'Detroit Techno' always makes me think of the richer, funkier and melodic side of things - tracks like Amazon and Final Frontier are the first in my thoughts.

[Quetzal] Well, I'd ask you to be objective rather than subjective ;) I love that track... I'd agree that "Quetzal" is also pretty near the bullseye, but would probably say that "Birth Of 3000" is even more so. But maybe that's just me being subjective, as I prefer the latter to the former (but only just :) Very true Brendan, I just love the sweet strings on Quetzal - 3000 is also up there for me - always in the rack ready to be played - in fact I usual start with one or the other of these on a Sunday morning, then some Electrofunk stuff - great way to start the most boring day of the week I find.

Re: (313) Detroit Techno
Hmm. Maybe my point was, are we in the wrong place to talk about that more melodic stuff, and the influences for it? Like, for example, I could talk about wierd electronic disco pieces that inspired detroit techno all day long, but, does that get on most peoples nerves? i.e. are most of the list here to find out about current stuff, or hard stuff, or are you open to whatever and not too bothered either way?

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
That's odd, that was one of the tracks I was going to suggest as being a piece of "dead centre" Detroit techno. But having already mentioned "Kaotic Harmony" and "Icon" I figured that there was a bit too much Derrick May content in my email already :) When I first heard "It Is What It Is" I was already familiar with the concept of Detroit techno, and with much of the actual music as well. But the music had never matched so perfectly with the concept - if that makes sense - as when I first heard that track. Also, when it was on the Channel 4 documentary, playing over shots of May wandering around a deserted industrial estate and that circuit-board-as-city video, I just thought "yep, this pretty much sums it up..." It combines the melodic sensibilities of Detroit techno with its dancefloor aspects so effectively - hard to think of any other tracks that do that so well.

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".

RE: (313) Detroit Techno
It's interesting to see what people in Detroit might regard as 'Detroit Techno' isn't it? One problem is that as far as I can understand, the time, in Detroit, when masses of clubbers (of a broad age range, perhaps) go out to clubs and listen to 'techno' of any variety, appears to have passed. FOr club music, house and of course hip-hop rules at the moment, I think it's safe to say. This is just what I hear. But, I'm told, there was never a time when the more 'breakbeat' stuff - basically this is 'electro', but not exclusively so - was *not* more popular than 'techno'. Even more blurring the edges of this, is that there was and still is to an extent a tendency for many in Detroit to call what we call electro, techno as well! :-) (Please remember that all my impressions are second-hand. I haven't been out in Detroit in over a decade.) People I would humbly request to pipe-up on this topic are Ian Cheshire, and Greg Earle :-) Peace, Ken >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 10:02 AM >To: 313@hyperreal.org >Subject: RE: (313) Detroit Techno > > >>Both - does there have to be only one sound? > >No, not at all. > >I was just wondering if people thought one way or the other. >Like, for example, I often forget about the harder stuff, when I imagine >that some people actually from the city identify more with that sound and >probably think of that as "detroit techno". > >Where as I don't, and Iwould imagine I'm wrong, just wondered if I was in >the minority or not... > >_ > >- End of message text > >This e-mail is sent by the above named in their >individual, non-business capacity and is not on >behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers. > >PricewaterhouseCoopers may monitor outgoing and incoming >e-mails and other telecommunications on its e-mail and >telecommunications systems.

Re: (313) Detroit Techno
I was thinking about this the other night and it often shifts in my mind but I'd say: Detroit: a) Strings b) Melody c) Funk d) Jacked e) Kick These are not in any order but I'd say the strongest one for Detroit is the strings, that's how a lot of people define it. I like all flavours but sometimes see little point in just copying...For me techno isn't about just joining the dots.

A cabaret is sort of a neighborhood dance party that is Bring Your Own Beer, rather than having alchohol sold at the venue. I would suggest drinking something classy like IceHouse, King Cobra, or best of all, Laser. Also, I'd like to suggest that out-of-towners try "Ghetto Blaster" beer, it's worth drinking just for the art on the label, actually it's a decent beer. -- Original Message --------- Subject: RE: (313) Detroit Techno Cabaret? party Date: Thu, 22 May 2003 16:21:59 -0400 From: "Darren Longton (Marketing)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "MM" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> There are more aspects to it, but basically a cabaret is a party that runs all night.

Re: [313] Detroit techno thesis
Ack, I think I missed the boat on this before it was removed. Sounds like it was a very well put together piece of work. In a distantly related matter, after procrastinating far too much, I finally picked up a copy of Dan Sicko's book, "Techno Rebels" at my local Barnes and Noble store last week. Thanks to my work schedule (and the advent of the Internet) I rarely have time to actually sit down and read through an actual book, but it only took a couple of pages of browsing to decide to purchase this and MAKE time to read. I hope to have it completed before Memorial Day weekend and perhaps find myself a bit more educated on matters relating to Techno, electronic music, and its fascinating history. ;) Matt E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Site: http://www.magicmattkelly.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I just mean that Detroit producers have always taken their time, generally preferring quality to quantitiy output. Just saying: how many times can we go over the must-have works and undisputed genius of these artists once we've covered that ground? Therefore, we start talking more and more about the artists who have been influenced by them from other areas and we talk about their new stuff. We still talk about Detroit artists to our hearts content when there are new releases to discuss, but there is a large world of people influenced by Detroit, so there's more Detroit influenced music made outside of Detroit to talk about, and that goes some way to explaining why we discuss the rest of the world so much, and when we discuss Detroit artists it tends to have a nostalgic or gossipy edge to it.

RE: [313] Detroit techno isn't techno?
I spose everyone has their different ideas... Looking back in time the origins are blurred. It doesn't really matter anyhow... What characterises the detroit sound?.. What does detroit techno actually sound like? I prefer music to be a stew of influences, which everyone interprets differently and creates new offshoots where their own ideas and mentality come into play... Techno probably doesn't necessarily have to be electronic... what is techno?... I assume it's possible to make techno without using electronic instuments(?). What is music anyway?

Yeah. Some of the real old school house has a synthetic Kraftwerk-y sound to it that very much reflects the same influences that informed Detroit techno. And remember that the Bellville kids were driving over to Chicago to go clubbing and buy records with some frequency. I guess the best way to put it is that people who are into the music will go for anything that kicks. And there is plenty of house music in Detroit -- Check TP, check the Atlanta-era records on Acacia, Moodyman? I think it's really incorrect to talk about being a Detroit Techno Purist. Techno has always been about throwing many different spices in the pot.
Re: [313] Detroit techno isn't techno?
Christian Smith ought to read Dan's book. Chicago house and Detroit techno were well intertwined in their development, but no way is Detroit techno just an offshoot of house, nor was Chicago unaffected by those early Detroit tracks. Nowadays I think of them as co-evolutionary. One factor that is overlooked is that mix shows had a big impact in both cities, but they functioned somewhat differently. Everyone wants a single source for everything in their origin myths. Here's a classic example of why things don't go that simply. phred
Re: [313] Detroit techno was techno.

I don't buy the argument that house and techno were the same thing because people would call "Nude Photo" , "Off To Battle" and "No UFOs" DETROIT TECHNO. Detroit techno had its own characteristic sound even though it used some of the same elements of Chicago house. Inner City was vocal house but it had a distinct Detroit techno quality that distinguished it from Jersey garage or Chicago house. >i`ve got a question for all who like playing genre-defining games: >what`s up with blake baxters "when we used to play" (co-produced by Kevin >Saunderson) on KMS (a detroit record ofcourse)? house or techno? That was called Detroit techno, in fact I remember people in the late 80's associated labels like Transmat, KMS, Metroplex with Detroit techno. If you want the definitive old school Detroit techno sound listen to Juan's' Techno Music from Techno! The Sound Of Detroit compilation. stephen.
