Back in the day when this one came out, the UK magazine Muzik came up with an article called the "Detroit Debate" which featured lots of people on the tracklist of the compilation. The good thing about it was, that it provided some background on the tracks these artitsts did. For example: the tr

Hey Mike, Well.. I can certainly see people viewing it as a disappointment, but when I bought this comp back in late 96, it became my first who's-who names-to-faces piece of detroit techno. Sentimental value... it's got the stars on it for sure. At the time, the two(three) biggest detroit artist
