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.
