Detroit Techno City Documentary

[@symm8318]

people arguing where was electronic music first made are far away of the very essence of this timeless genre.

[@gaziltapig]

Mojo gifted it to us as far as Im concerned. If you grew up in the 70s/80s in Detroit, you know.

[@ramsdellcp]

this year i was fortunate enough to be a photographer for the kms crew at movement. got to shoot kevin saunderson (e-dancer) and his son Dantiez and Demarii up on the stargate stage!! tickets were $280 for the three day an $150 for a single day this year

[@mobildetroit]

I don't give a shit what anything thinks of electronic music from Detroit. The only thing that matters to me is what I think of it.

[@anomalija6469]

It does not. What matters is what you FEEL about it ;) And you don´t give a shit what people THINK about, what you FEEL.

[@thadalicious-i4k]

The Burden brothers are dope as shit

[@jonnie2bad]

Jeff mills is quoted as saying the factories and machinery have nothing to do with what inspired techno.

[@spaceploit8484]

Yeah when he speaks he has a tendency to get away from the material and historical world. Better to listen to the mans music than what he has to say imho

[@killahkoreah]

I don't understand why people think electronic music started in The UK... Made in the good old U.S.A! Art is to be shared

[@gkhan2973]

Techno started in the US ( Detroit ), electronic music started in germany, Kraftwerk! Some say germany was first with techno also but that was more experimental stuff ( electronic music) if you ask me Detroit was first because that is the basic sound as we know it today and for me there was never a better sound than the Detroit sound.

[@MrJonny895]

electronic music was started by pierre schaeffer you dingus

[@FKU7777]

It started in Uncle Joe’s basement

[@blooberization]

BLA BLA BLA

Back when admission was free for the Detroit Electronic Music Festival! Those were the days! Now they charge 95 dollars per day or 195 dollars for a 3 day pass.

[@randallgoeswhere]

UPDATE: 2 years later its now $129 per day. And talent is half of what it was back then and even theyre getting shafted. =\

[@ramsdellcp]

shit... it's $250 now for a three day, 120 for a day

[@Theredeyedjedi]

​​@@ramsdellcp wtf!?!?!?!? I went to the festival as a kid and wanted to go possibly this year and thought it was free to get in. Damn wtf happened?

[@ramsdellcp]

@@Theredeyedjedi unrelated but my mother passed away today and couldn't help but notice your username. if your mother is still alive please call her more often, i wish i had

[@Theredeyedjedi]

@Carlos Danger She actually passed away when I was 12. I think of her daily. Sending my condolences and love man. Stay strong. Mother's are precious

[@t.n.3819]

No musical genre develops in a vacuum... Kraftwerk had antecedents too. It's pointless to try to pick apart who influence who/who did it first, bla bla bla. Notice you rarely see the people who actually made the music bicker about this shit.

[@cyberspak]

I’m not gonna bicker but kraftwerk are the pioneers, listen to numbers and Tour de France and hear the electro and techno influences.

[@Terra101]

17:59 Track id?

[@Terra101]

[@313Valentine]

met my kids mom in the Packard at a rave in 98.

[@Udbas95]

Name of the song around 4-5 min. is The Martian - Star Dancer

[@MnMS1904]

So dope. Detroit need to bring this back. Big Sean not doin his city justice by having the same flow as everybody else. Represent where you came from or at least pay homage. Same thing with Chicago, can’t forget about the house scene and how much energy it creates.

[@brewcitymike1]

2001 was the only DEMF I attended and there were SO MANY amazing shows like Kooky Scientist rocking right next to the river, Derrick Carter and H-Foundation killing it, Autecher doing their unique thing, De La Soul highlighting the main stage and having the biggest "rave" crowd I've ever seen going nuts. But the biggest let down was standing at the main stage waiting for Carl Cox to come out only to be told he wasn't gonna make it but his good friend Laurent Garnier would fill in for him which was a nice consolation prize.

[@luisllorens70]

Thank you Kraftwerk.

[@ramsdellcp]

carl craig and stacey pullen were incredible at movement this year. incredible they've been around so long

WDET radio tower

[@sheldon9738]

Alton Miller! And I have heard all the others LIVE! Shhhh, don't tell. God I loved the "scene" back then. Especially a series of events called "The Loft Series", amazing memory's, blurred though they may be by time and space. Being 46 now, makes this documentary feel a but like I think those who first heard "Big Band" way back in the day!

[@borchabronx]

eeedeeemoooo

[@mauricecarter397]

Juan Adkins is a genius I'm from Chicago I thought no ufo`s which was a major hit on WBMX Chicago house music in 1985 when I was a freshman in high school I actually thought the song was from overseas no lie.

[@intandemdj]

lol @ 12:10… he thought preset patterns were bad, now we've got digital stock loops to make it even worse.

[@quietstorm_fm]

Kraftwerk had nothing to do with house and techno being dj's music. Kraftwerk plays band sounds. Paradise Garage, the djs, the parties, spinning 12" after 12" are the roots of house and techno.

[@ronnymatt81]

The more people try to explain things, the more it loses meaning.

[@rubikovakocka1693]

ronnymatt81 thats especially wrong thing to think

[@Theredeyedjedi]

Damn lmfaooo

[@mauricecarter397]

watched this for the first time can't believe they didn't mention model 500 no ufo`s and Adonis no way back shame on them from Chicago two of the best house tracks ever!

[@harryhirsch8527]

Techno country Germany

[@simonh6371]

Late adopter lol. Motte had to get records sent from the UK in the early days.

[@Memotek82]

techno was just born in Belgium, the first tracks from Detroit were all breakbeat.

[@sonikku956]

Nope, look up The Belleville Three circa 1984-1988. It's when the electro influence of techno fused with house music and became Detroit techno. Belgium had some good techno too, but they didn't invent it. It's like saying the British invented house music.

[@Memotek82]

Listen Liaisons Dangereuses Los ninos del parque (1981) it's more techno than anything from Detroit until 1989.

[@Memotek82]

LOL nobody cares of your ignorance and nobody needs Detroit techno apart hipsters, techno was born in Belgium and Germany and trance was born in Italy.

[@ShogunX11]

@@Memotek82 you are so desperate to call Detroit techno breakbeat. Breakbeat came from turntablism, dumbass

[@adrianrivas8028]

Boy you stupid as shit, your example of techno is still considered electronic music and BTW trance comes from a state of techno it was a sound not a genre yet.

[@matthewneufer1758]

I remember back in the day when it was a big deal to make your own music on keyboards in my neighborhood.
