Who gives a flying fuck? Well me obviously. In my opinion it's the last great musical invention. Other than DnB the last pure musical style invented. Techno's reach and influence astounding, everything from commercial, computer games, movies, electronic devices etc. The Belville Three (Four if you include Eddie Fowlkes which is fair) invented a genre still loved today and that influences dance music still while at school! An amazing feat. It is very much a separate genre to house. I have eclectic tastes and love both but they are most certainly different.
PS. Jeff Mills was not involved in creating Techno, you meant Derrick May.
Sorry mate - my tongue has actually pierced my cheek. Of course I meant Derrick May & yes I agree what they did was great. But there is no need to argue (play one upmanship) about it. We could have exactly the same argument about hip-hop / doo-wop / classical music / the beginning of speech. Love all music & don't feel the need to give a shit - it's al good man. Peace.
