Not that I'm really arsed what city takes this title, but surley London has
a pretty good claim to it seeing as how its the capital of a country that
was one of the first to really embrace Techno and give the Detroit labels
(through Neil Rushton and others) the support and exposure they needed for
the music to even get off the ground in those early days. Plus the whole
warehouse/summer of love/rave/acid house/Orbital parties call it what you
like scene bloomed over here first before the rest of the world caught on
and those early techno tracks played a big part at some of those parties.
Also fast forward to the present and London is a pretty techno friendly
city, there's big name Detroit DJs spinning here almost on a weekly basis it
seems these days.
