any cues on that scene, links with words or sounds or better : your own experience in relation to that moment in time
and what it might exemplify as as vibe
 
peep this documentary
The Creation of Techno Music
HIGH TECH SOUL is the first documentary to tackle the deep roots of techno music alongside the cultural history of Detroit, its birthplace. From the race riots of 1967 to the underground party scene of the late 1980s, Detroit's economic downturn didn't stop the invention of a new kind of music that brought international attention to its producers and their hometown.

^ whoa, scrolling down that chart ya posted. nice find, it's full of gems.

but yea it's a fascinating topic, how it came to be with kids influenced by kraftwerk and funky shit like parliment. combined with the fact it happened in a place like detroit that has so much history. i never been but my mom was born and raised in detroit so i have a passion for it's history.

one thing i'd like to mention about that chart tho, i don't see any mention of plastikman(richie hawtin). he played a big part in the 90s detroit techno scene. check his stuff from that time http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richie_Hawtin#Selected_discography
