Detroit Techno is a genre of electronic music that originated in Detroit, Michigan in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its use of synthesizers, drum machines, and electronic percussion, as well as its heavy reliance on basslines and its incorporation of funk, soul, and jazz elements. It is often associated with the "second wave" of Detroit techno, which emerged in the early 1990s and was spearheaded by artists such as Derrick May, Juan Atkins, and Kevin Saunderson. Detroit Techno is often seen as a precursor to other genres such as house and techno, and has been influential in the development of electronic music worldwide.
