Shoutout Richie Hawtin and all pioneers of this fascinating genre. I couldn’t ask for a better childhood. Feeling luckier than the time I found (8), yes, eight 4-leaf clovers!
The Detroit Underground is still going strong to this day - even with an explosion of talent worldwide and a proliferation of electronic subgenres in the past two decades. Detroit crowds still come for the music, and bring genuine soul to the dance floor. Incredible non-native artists venture to the city on a regular basis, as orchestrated by passionate club promoters, alongside the house + techno forefathers and a new wave of local DJs.
It's so beautiful to see the old luminaries of the Detroit scene. I loved seeing Record Time's blue pegboard shelves in the background in a few cuts. THAT took me BACK. RIP Record Time. Back in the day I can remember digging in the crates in the afternoon and see Juan, Carl, Derrik, any of them really, just walk up to the turntables and say, "Here kid, listen to *this*!" and spin a few records right there in the store. It was a real treat. I met Richie Hawtin there and he showed me the back room where his label, +8, had their mini-warehouse of merch. Great times! I miss the old Detroit scene. The 90s in Detroit was a singular moment in time that will always be special to me. Much love to the pioneers. Your contribution will never be fully appreciated.
Man, it’s been 20 years since I’ve been to Detroit. Loved the parties there!
damn derrick may got the playstation AND the dreamcast

Just seeing this now many years later I can see cycles repeating. Music is absolute and it englobes so many things to a point that it cannot be put into words. Only thing that I can say as a young fellow pationate about electronic music is thank you to every person that has the same feeling for this and keeps pushing the boundries of the genre that always looks for the next wave, the next sound and expression of frequencies and movement. Long live forward thinking electronic music!!!
What a great video, brought back a lot of great memories. The first time Carl Craig ever DJed outside the US was when me and my brother brought him to Glasgow in February 1993 for a couple of hundred quid and his flights ! Great days indeed !

We brought Carl back about a year later for a live set at The Arches. That was filmed, but the guy who filmed it was an incompetent idiot and ruined it, but I recorded it on audio and still have it…

Wince?
TP I haven't thought about him in years. Memories of 99/2000 hitting hard.
RHawtin was looking much more down to earth .
And as someone with very expansive, yet distinct tastes in electronic music, one of my favorite current DJs and producers is Kyle Hall from the D - who is a year younger than I am. Serious fresh talent. And if you go to one of his local shows, you will experience one of the most down-to-earth crowds and atmospheres this city has to offer. Not to mention, prodigious skills on the turntables...
My first party was “Pangea” in 1998 at Packard Plant.
Awesome video! Thanks for posting TP!!
This is magic. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you for uploading this, Terrence! 🌸
Thanks for posting this Terrence. I can't wait for the festival in a couple weeks.
Awesome vid, thanks TP!
❤ U DETROIT!
Maaan that track that played during the credits whooo
The best video about the history of techno music!
Love Much Music.. I used to be able to watch it at times when I lived near the Canadian border. Great production. Late 90's and you can tell. Around the time I started going to events.
Great! thanks for sharing
Great video ...You've made my day TP
Much Music and The New Music always did great music journalism. The Toronto, Hamilton and Niagara scenes got a ton of influence from Detroit and we used to to record shopping in the D in a regular basis. I found this thanks to #thevinylfactory #detroit
Excellent! Jeff Woodward built my record collection via Buyrite; TP taught me about scratching over House music. This took me back.
Late to the party but much respect to The D.
many legends appear in this video :) this luggage cant be forgotten
Very interesting to watch for someone living far away from Detroit. Great music.
That was so good, wish it went for 2 hours.
Thank You
Superb video...not been to a techno night for a while...but remember seeing all the DJ's mentioned during my journey starting from 1988 through to oh well still going out now every now and again....jeff mills live though....sufunkingperb... :) peace
Proud to be from here
the song starting at 13:26 that Mike Huckaby talks about is Groove La Chord by Aril Brikha
great doc!
Thank you thats really cool of you to reply.
cool.... thanks for upload :-) greetings form berlin-germany
Great video T...
I am grateful for my nights dancing to TP spinning at motor!!
This young south Texas boy went up to UofM for school and found a flyer on a campus for Motor. Was a raver in Texas and Mexico border towns and found house and techno because of this place. Frankie Bones!!! ❤❤❤

I was wondering if anyone was going to mention Motor. It was voted best nightclub in America in the late 90s.
man this brings back memories
God bless Detroit
3515 Caniff, via holbrook, via I-75! Motor....I MISS YOU! So Sad-
Jeff Mills is godfather of Detroit Techno!!
awesome!
an excellent documentary
It's sad as there's myself and others who cant reach these levels because its all about download streams and self importance. Something which this was never about
Keep high tech low tech. When you have less options, you can be more creative by your own restrictions.
Wow =) wonderfull video. Thanks to eeveryone involved in this. Someone got the ID of the outro?
15:35 sums up the history of Black American music and creations in general....
F**Kin awsum upload, Dirty Acid Techno ruled the late 90s. Good times.
Friday and Saturday classics
good video here
Music. It’s the tonic for life. Check all these comments. Class people. Absolutely class nice people. Oh man. Let’s get the vinyl out and make some funkin!? noise!!
Carl Craig was born stoned and wearing perfect eyeliner.
the question on how it happened and why it happened can be answered it hindsight, i think. looking back at the 80s and how technology progressed at the times, causing significant changes in ppls lives and within society itself the general idea of a music produced by technological means was more acceptable to a greater bunch of folks and somewhat 'in the air'. i do think it's no coincidence that 'techno' a.k.a. detroit techno emerged around the same time and in parallel development to when talla 2xlc started his 'techno club' series in frankfurt in the mid-80s which was, despite also using 'techno' a.k.a. music produced by technological means, more informed by synthpop, industrial and related styles in its formative years and later incorporated house and (detroit)techno in what was played throughout those nights. so even the term 'techno' in and by itself used for a certain kind of music was a sign of the times - it had to happen somewhere because technology was around and more and more accessible to producers. yet, this train of thought isn't taking away any credit away from detroit and x or frankfurt but rather an observation of how things were moving in parallel in different places, probably totally independently given the international communication technology available at the time.
@Kae Silk Agreed. The 80s and 90s were prime time for House, Techno, Drum & Bass, etc. Nowadays the "EDM" that's being produced is CRAP. But that's pretty much the commercial side of it. There's still some great House and Techno being produced, a lot of good labels. It's more underground again though. But you are right, the ease of being able to pirate some software makes a lot of instaproducers who haven't got the skills or ear for GOOD music.

Really So there are not creative vinyl DJ's or live performances with synthesizers/keyboards, drum machines, modulator's, audio mixers, sequencers etc for that feel and authentic tempo, sound and beat that don't sound the same especially at real raves? And with the returning to creative ravers with jenco phat pants, glow-sticks, visors, pacifiers etc for that creative and futuristic look.

Spot on about the first part. people get too hung up on what was and dont see what still is, but The ease of accessibility is what makes it GREAT nowdays. the kids not into commercial EDM sounds can pursue the sound they want, regardless of social or class backstanding. most these detroit cats started out in the bedroom with little to no formal training either.
13:04 made it for me :) guitar jam + old school computer
Track played at 6.45 is not "The Dance" it's "It Is What It Is".
Juan Atkins came to Club Called Joker red in Hongdae Seoul Korea After Japan Tour Between 2010~2011 As I Remember Right After He Finshed His Set, I asked Him. 'Juan do you know where you are, have you hered of Seoul Korea?' He Said.... NO' Where was his menager? LOL 😆
The Blueprint of Techno in the 90's? Real Techno started in the 80's allready, in Europe. And electro Music even earlier in the 60's - 70's..again in Europe.
15:07 Also well spoken.
🖤
that's something! it's Manuel Göttsching's track, from E2-E4 album
look at the interwebs back in the day!
The part where he talks about the dance by Derrick May they play It is what it is not the dance
Shoutout to Marble Bar!

Bruhhhh I swear all Detroit cats be lookin related
anybody knows the track ID at 17:11min??? terrence parker is playin it..its awesome!
Anyone know the name of the track when the end credits are on?
Rhythm is Rhythm - Drama
I think there is some similarities in Detroit and where the British stuff came from, manchester, Leeds, northern English cities. Even Garnier was based in Manchester back in the late and early nineties. All these places where worn down industrial cities whose people had probably gone through a lot of the same struggles regardless of race. It’s not to far removed to believe they would share some of the same tastes and ideas.
Thanks for the post! Any chance of getting the original/mpeg from you?
@claudiospectrum damn right
