Same for Freddie Fresh - his Howlin series sits in the used bins. He didn't
get much recognition here until he started doing shit with Fatboy Slim.

I don't think this is US-specific. The same happened in the Netherlands,
where for instance labels like Eevolute and 100% Pure or artists like
Orlando Voorn and Stefan Robbers only got recognition at home when they
got recognition in the UK and US. It's not even techno-specific: Dutch
progressive/trance DJs like Ferry Corsten and Tiesto did not become big
in .nl until after they'd become big in the UK.
