would be great ifm would have a weekly techno/ house show (or both!)

Kenny Larkin  - Azimuth ---> that one is really superb!
Luke Slater's 7th Plain is also essential stuff in that area (not really to dance to though), the 4 Cornered Room is pure bliss:

yea i always liked azimuth. my closest shop has it as pride of place on his shelves since he opened, always suprised nobody bought it yet.

For me, Detroit Techno was THE type of music that really hit me when I began to understand something about electronic music 10-11 years ago. There was of course Prodigy which I was mad about, but slowly everything that came from Detroit or sounded like it, no matter where it was from, just summed up my teenage feelings. 20 years old now and it still does!

Lots of great stuff posted here already - was digging Walt J's Ascender the other day and 7th Plain's My Yellow Wise Rug is also one of the most beautiful listening albums made in a british Detroit spirit!

A shitload of good labels to list - 10th Planet, 4th Wave, early Eevo Lute stuff, Evolution / Universal Language Productions, Native, New Electronica, Reflective... all landmarks in soulful, deep, ambient-dipped Detroit Techno - definitely something to check out if you're still not into those. Also among the new labels are a.r.t.less, Abstract Forms, Weinberg's diametric, Digital Soul, Emoticon.. there sure are good new records to pick up if you just know where to look.

Others:
As One - Celestial Soul
The Other World Collective - Artificial World ---> another overlooked/ignored gem on Peacefrog
