They started making music that combined their love of early European synthpop and contemporary funk. In fact that May had described the sound of early techno "like Music/GeorgeClinton and Music/{{Kraftwerk}} are stuck in an elevator [[XMeetsY with only a sequencer to keep them company]]".

Put detailed history into folder. This is not a useful notes page. Also put assorted examples into L3 subheading. I did not edit description content aside from moving time signature paragraph out of folder. There's more work to do on this page. I'll leave notes in the discussion.

Most techno is in [[CommonTime 4/4]], with a bass drum on each downbeat, and either a clap or a snare on every 2nd and 4th beat. Most of the time it retains the open-hi-hat-on-every-upbeat feeling of house, but there's often a rhythmic accent that marks the upbeats.

The list is for naming notable and important techno musicians. It's not for self-promoting your own music. I removed "Moonrat" from the list, as it was apparently added by "Moonrat" himself, judging by the username.

Most of Daft Punk's records are are House Music, they've never been a techno act. Moby did release some techno records in the early 1990s, but "Play" is not techno, it's sample-based dance music/electronica.

The minimal techno movement has engineered some of the most incredibly fervent defenders of this genre. Here is the story: in the mid-1990s, after the passage of the acid house/techno movement, followed by the raves and free parties in Europe, as well as the rise to fame of trance and extreme hardcore, techno was going through a crisis. The music that was once dance-oriented, funky and soulful had become too ravey, fast, and hard to the taste of some of the older figures in techno. One of them, Richie Hawtin, reacted with sonic minimalism. Under the moniker Plastikman, he produced some of the most smooth, fluid, and funky techno ever, using almost the same tools than those who created the genre: Roland drum machines and bassline generators.
