XX [From the back cover] Essential reading for clubbers, fans of electronica, and students of pop culture alike Dan Sicko has provided the most authoritative account yet of techno's early beginnings in Detroit and the music's subsequent success around the world. TIM BARR, author of Kraftwerk: From Düsseldorf to the Future. A clear, insider's history that sets the standard for all serious critical assessments of techno to come. IAN RAIKOW, co-founder of The Beta Lounge. Dan Sicko demonstrates an acute awareness of the racial, cultural, and historical implications of the late twentieth century's digital soundtrack; exploring it with a depth that few have captured in print. RAYMOND LEON ROKER, publisher of Urb. A fast-paced, highly intelligent volume that makes for both a fun read and a killer resource. COLIN BERRY, Wired. Although the most vital and innovative trend in contemporary music, techno is notoriously difficult to define. What, exactly, is techno? Author Dan Sicko offers an entertaining, informed, and in-depth answer to this question in TECHNO REBELS, the music's most authoritative American chronicle and a must-read for all fans of techno, popular music, and contemporary culture. TECHNO REBELS demystifies the genre's complex range of influences, from Chicago house and Midwestern funk to stark European synth-pop and industrial music. Pages packed with anecdotes and interviews follow the music's rave scene of the late 1980s, and the global success of contemporary artists like the Prodigy and the Chemical Brothers. Throughout, Sicko explores techno's position as a largely "underground" sound, a status formed and then reinforced through struggles with a rock- and pop-dominated music industry. Supplemented by a discography of more than 300 essential recordings, TECHNO REBELS is a compelling look at the people, places, and social forces that continue to define this most international of musical genres. [The author] A Detroit native, Dan Sicko has been writing about techno music for nearly ten years. His articles have appeared in such publications as Rolling Stone, Wired, Urb, Res, Raygun, and Alternative Press. Since 1993, Dan has published Reverb, one of the Internet's first techno music magazines., Books<
