Techno

If House is a feeling Techno is a landscape.

tr 909

In the 1980s, a group of producers began using Roland 909 and 808 drum machines with synths like the Yamaha DX100. They drew inspiration from the contemporary synth music of the time like Yellow Magic Orchestra and Kraftwerk but also drawing from the raw funk of Parliment and early Prince.
This was the beginning of Techno as we know it today and in it's original form referred to as Detroit Techno for its origin and definitive sound.
