RE: (313) definitive detroit track?
To view the terms under which this email is distributed, please go to http://disclaimer.leedsmet.ac.uk/email.htm Yeah for me it would have to be a Juan track, He was there in the beginning and has consistantly put out quality to this day. 'I wanna be there' would have to be up there - deep. or No UFOs, that bassline rocks to this day. Then there's the Infiniti material, I can't choose. OK, I choose No UFOs, its what techno was and to a degree still is.

Re: (313) definitive detroit track?
always found the combination of juan (the melody and feel) and derrick (the bite and edits) to be a good one so today's random choice to explain what i'd mean by Detroit techno would probs be: Model 500 - The Chase - Mayday's version - Metroplex ask me tomorrow and i'd probs say somat different. Strings of Life does something to a room every time it's played though, i have to admit. robin... Yeah for me it would have to be a Juan track, He was there in the beginning and has consistantly put out quality to this day. 'I wanna be there' would have to be up there - deep. or No UFOs, that bassline rocks to this day. Then there's the Infiniti material, I can't choose.

Re: (313) definitive detroit track?
For me, I'd be handing out copies of 'It Is What It Is' like a priest giving out holy communion to all those wanting to be saved. (No Catholic jokes please.) Good choice, Louis. But I would opt for Rhythim is Rhythim's beyond the dance (cult mix), wich is more of a building to a climax kind of thing. Those metallic sounding string stabs are really outstanding. And I've heard nothing that sounds like this track, ever after. For me, Derrick May is the best electronic artist of ALL TIMES (of course, I don't know all artists, but you get the point). Cheers, Maarten
