Techno

Techno is a form of electronic dance music that emerged in Detroit, Michigan, USA during the mid- to late 1980s. Many styles of techno now exist, but Detroit techno, a genre in its own right, is seen as the foundation upon which a number of sub genres have been built.

techno is completely misinterpreted by mainstream music followers as just any style of electronically created music. this is the reason why many of the tagged artists dont belong because their music bares no resemblance to REAL techno, being detroit techno.

techno is a confusing and unspecific genre nowdays. lots of artists like daft punk and the prodigy are up here because techno became a generalized term for lots of different types of dance music over the years that actually hardly bare any resemblance to detroit techno, and techno just became a genre which people thought was this or that because it has become such a generalized term.

There is some great techno in John Digweed's new compilation Bedrock 11, in addition to tech house.

So what are some good real techno artists? Since the majority of artists on here apparently aren't techno.

Just give it up guys. To the majority of people, "Techno" will never mean anything other than "dat mad gay bleep-bloop untz untz shit" no matter how much you tell them otherwise. Abandon this particular tag and stick to specific subgenres (minimal, acid, Detroit, etc).
