Detroit techno

I always thought that techno was wack, but I recently discovered Detroit techno and now I love it! I've been mostly listening to Underground Resistance and a bit of Cybotron. Do you have other people/songs that you like in the same style? You know those things with the spacey pads and TR 909
Thanks!

i love that stuff
UR are crazy
Juan Atkins is a genius

this wax poetics issue is really interesting
great article on the detroit scene and the belleville three (atkins/may/saunderson)
the articles on bohannon and tom moulton are dope too

Oh yes. I miss these records. Had a friend who was into that stuff and I liked to mix with his records. There is so much room for mixing in these tracks you can get really creative.

peace

Thanks for all the links! I must say I'm not a big fan of the hard sounding techno, I'm more into the spacey or jazzy techno stuff. A few favorites of mine from UR:
