The Mighty Juan was involved with a track on JOS's LP wasn't he?
He also got Wax Doctor and Alex Reece to remix I Wanna Be There and The
Flow.

Yeah you really hear Detroits influence on projects like Jacob's Optical
Stairway, and Inner City
Life.

Regarding Fred's comments.
In 1992 break beat "hardcore" (pre- drum n' bass) was huge with the American
rave scene
(especially on the West Coast) 
with groups 
like the Prodigy enjoying much success, (remember The Movement from L.A?)
there would be a
resurgence in the sound 
with drum n bass around the mid 90's.
Back in the early 90's break beat tracks like "Charley" were actually called
jungle. I remember
buying early UK 
break beat like The Scientist The Bee as far back as 1990 although I never
really followed the
sound with 
exceptions like Alter 8 Frequency and the ocassional technoid break beat
track like Blapps Posse
and the ones by Micky 
Finn.
When progressive house started to dominate the American scene around 1993
thats when I started to
see a 
disassociation with the old Detroit techno, Chicago house sound which was
influential on late 80's
early 90's techno.
This is one of the main reasons techno is so unpopular in the US today.
