2:32 pm
is shows that 1st of all, we were ahead of part time, hours ahead of mind. to find out more about the history of the genre. we were in berlin. where else, but the capital of texas, since there is no closing time here, you can party all night long of clubs like trees on the a. more than 30 years after its founding, tesla is still considered at the, at the center and best place of protect them is meant when it comes to fix, know you come to this place. i think that the is one of the most the far sunset drive being viewed is global tech. i think that techno, what's the force that shape berlin into the image that we have of it today?
2:33 pm
so the image was in 1989 before the full of the will fill in was a divided city in the socialist east, the state controlled and regulated almost all aspects of life. in secrets, however, the use of the ddr stay tuned into what was going on in the capitalist west. here on the other side of the will in the inside of, of west and then people enjoy the special spaces and much more freedom. and he's felt isolated and cut off. it was actually very important that the wall came down that that was actually more space in town. you know, everybody from east came through the cold us. what's happening then everybody from the west tried to start its own research and it was in that that's fine. in those tests to take the rudy. no one can the,
2:34 pm
me take them on and others of the westman and underground scene explode abandoned places in the form of wooded area that had main center for decades. and we were really lucky to find the location that both very new located near the wall actually and the honda building. this building was in an area where and nobody could go even from the east side. it was like in this very close to the wall. so it was like, i'm touched over 45, you know, this will lead to place underground in the basement fault of the department store was extremely loud music. and how to do that when we opened it, it was the 1st day and it was really cool. incident that is usually close just as the top of the house didn't make it about technology. that was things that people like that were also ready to dance in
2:35 pm
for a long time. no one was really interested in way of the music came from. oh, who was trying to sort it moves and one atkins with the tang from the very beginning. many of them came from the declining industrial city of detroit and the us and they shaped what is now known as the sound of goodman. i my name is blake renee baxter, i'm from detroit usa tech house, sol, capital of united. the detroit is known for its auto industry and music scene. it's also considered the place where the 1st ticket attracts were created. this is awesome for glossing. you know, detroit comes and goes and comes and goes like, it's like, it's like
2:36 pm
a cycle added the phone or the soul in the fall from detroit. the decline of industry in detroit and the doing of a new technological age inspired. juan atkins and other musicians in the early eighty's to experiment with futuristic sounds. they mixed europe and electro music with african american don speeds. i guess the arrival of the technological revolution, so to speak. it was to the industrial age kind of came to a close and by detroit be one of the major industrial hurts in america. the city was kind of like just to clean it because the robots took over. most of the manufacturing that they experimented with new electra sounds and was celebration as techno rebels, even just a kid and later some,
2:37 pm
some more kids just tinkering with, with this new technology. you know, a lot of this was kind of spontaneous. i mean, nobody had a blueprint or a plan. i mean, we had an idea of doings what we want us to do sort of like a mix spearman, you mix a lot of different ingredients, and the result came out 10 times better than we thought it would come out in a change of location. berlin and an old hymns finished. he produced the music for the evening himself. oldham started out as a radio husband. the choice lights are illustrated for in the labels and st became a ha my or it has always been the way it is. but it just seem to when technical came along, it seemed a bit along with the actual futuristic or the science fiction elements from the beginning of the ninety's island, old him got involved. and the techno scene as
2:38 pm
a member of the deed, to connect to underground resistance known as you are know, one man was bigger than music. and the music, it was the message, not the person out. and we all had a co names and that i chose to 1000 for my he was the, the cutting edge, nano technology terminate. superior to our new in every way. right? so that, that's the basis behind my d. j. name the salvation in the disturb you in the world was how i didn't all to him depicted techno in a comic book for the techno level plus age in the early ninety's. they
2:39 pm
asked me to do a comic book for their label. is like, hey man, you know, just come up with something cool. you are is there the detroit police are robots, but you are, hates the robot costs. so you go the others and the resistance group. they're trying to restart this thing called the random noise generator, which creates music, creates techno music. and they installed the device and then the, the random noise generator shakes to life. and then you see all the electricity and sound waves coming out of it. and here's all the sound waves tech now, and it's touching everywhere in the planet. that's basically what that was. this is how in check. absolutely, but from, from detroit, the, the hype around detroit butting theme, assume that it's way around the club post by music freaks promises on march out
2:40 pm
until finding a 2nd home in berlin days from the us with floating in to get to cities, dogs, those chinese still the us seen, we made fun, the rooted in the, on the ground navigating traction in the main stream. so wanted to come up in europe. the white audience are, were the ones who like techno, a lot of black people did not like it. they did not get it. there was no wrapping in it. there was no singing. it was all one thing. it was repetitive and repetitive proved to be the key to berlin. as hans tegler became the new soundtrack of the city, when it became berlin, then it became centralized. and then more detroit guy started coming over evil to resort was it was crucial in this check me. it was undoubtedly a creation of african american communities across the atlantic. the fact that as
2:41 pm
launch the escaped public consciousness because it wasn't berlin, where'd take no sound? mainstream appeals i think it was the rightful play, the music. and the last bill of the whole d. j. culture of the germans. each account. they won't pulse on. dick was born in 1971 in an industrial town in the gd off and grew up in east for them. like many young germans. he fell in love with the news phone from detroit, things as unprofessional music. it's simple, really. i play the music because i love it, but i'm a total fanatic of california. i think i really don't teach it because i can make any money when i tell me this might have been good for the income. the few years
2:42 pm
later, to pull from dick made his break through the coming one of the most successful, the days in the world and the money started flowing check no for the massive years before it was very slow. that was really not real nice line but happy night. and when house came over as a talk and then technology plus great effect weekends with thing about 10000 people involved in move from one of the of the rest of the story is that if we came to know which way john, i just came across from that too many people, they just want you to came to 6 months, but the 1st the this is female detail like and
2:43 pm
then on in also start taking off. she's one of the most important representative for the bad and take those same to this day. the and on and produce is electronic music and runs the label. the pitch control table is like a 2nd home to cool though his roots are in hip hop box. the elusive, underground scene of techno fascinated head from the stops by a golf highway up seemed positive of seamless removed because i could get somebody to tell them i didn't know which was the fax from u. s. as in papa as an officer wireless i just, that's how it can somebody foster loves parades, mock the status of a new era for this genre. what started with only
2:44 pm
a few 100 visitors seen through hundreds of thousands, many under the influence of the policy drug, ecstasy, rate is from the world that came to berlin to be part of the spectacle. 1999 to an incredible 1500000 attendance. you know, back in the rain times, it was just a lot of drugs, the people that did parties, you know, whatever, whatever. but now it's an emphasis on community. it's emphasis on kind of leaving things better than when you found it. and i think that, that a lot of young people want to create their own spaces. and this is this, the soundtrack for the . so what does the tech know actually mean? to find out, we don't into the archive of used culture in buildings. clark's back district
2:45 pm
to documents fundings magazines, posters, and more compiled, keeping the history of youth and subculture in life. this and this book on this up here, we have the a tunnel festival program from 1990. thank you could say that this was maybe the 1st tech no festival in germany to for the, for the term tech. them occurs but not so often how they talk mostly of house here . when i noticed that, but at one point they start speaking of the so called tech. no seen mostly, and it was the word is in quotation on, so it wasn't get really clear what they really meant by tech. know who ways to talk about them, an understood mind as it has a different meaning for everyone. i mean, it will take, no, can also be melodic and it can also be chill. but for me, primarily tech no means more aggressive. techno is everything you haven't imagined yet. that's according to jeff mills, legendary d j m is the same color. so yes,
2:46 pm
that's not quite the onset annisa your husband looking for. she works at berlin's university of the arts and has been researching techno for several years. in german techno with a capital t has a huge meaning, it's an umbrella term which collects, let's say on the ground events and music related happenings. and also the music itself is part of food that has something you can identify either and you can explain is something that is underground, something that is locally organized. but this is a huge confusion specially in international circumstances because an english sectional with another capital t means simply a stronger music genre. one of the genres of electronic dance music. take a lot of i thought a estimate is on the hots 1st and foremost and it's a be in tech. no, it's harder, very close at times mostly compared to house sites. so tech know features less of
2:47 pm
the solely vote goes and go and is generally faster, harder and darker. how to do stuff. for some of the techno also means excessive drug consumption. a very low is the, this simplification of the club culture that it's just about taking drugs that it's just about heading this. i'm gonna skip isn't, but i think now on the 21st century, we cannot say that anymore. most of the people that they go out because of clubs, they go out because of the lineup, they go out because of the music, they go out because of the atmosphere. there was always this thing, this idea of which the or think about what's going on. yeah. you know what's going on in the space and trying to connect with that and the way, trying to be not afraid of it. the music has something real, but it can be better just thoughts to the
2:48 pm
type of machines. and it also has that kind of spaces. sounds lot of electronic music is based on the gear that you use. 3 or 3, a roland, 9 o 9 process and 100 towards the vpn. and that's why it's called technology because it's technologically advanced. gear is on the growing that's yet the one um cuz it all started in the underground way. he began spinning records in the 1980s. he's long since become legendary in particular seen. but the status was never a big deal for him. my job is to entertain because, you know, have come from here where, you know, before the d, j was famous in this big days,
2:49 pm
got all his out accolades, all your job was to do is to keep the floor busy or to keep people smile. man, you're happy in dancing, and a lot of that is due in me from when i 1st started these days, one. adkins doesn't only feel down flows, but also the foyer of berlin's venerable philharmonic. the actually, i had no idea that i would even be leaving detroit or going around the world, you know, from the, on the ground to the 100 holes of classical music. this home festival brings together the entire spectrum of electronic music. turning technology into high culture. the, here's the time is come, that this music is being welcome here as well. that's quite
2:50 pm
a statement. the technology built its own institutions. and now we're at a level where one set of institutions noticed this the other and see like, well maybe it is interesting what you're doing and we're still waiting for the lights going. it shows the 1st of all, we were head hours ahead. i think i to and it, and it shows the staying power because i had this vision of the future doing this is kind of perpetuating itself now because that was kind of the idea, the
2:51 pm
well, the choice, african american communities of finding the receiving long overdue recognition for inventing text though, the important role played by women artists on the quiz seen is still under acknowledged. and those who called tv show gave a feeling for what was going on in detroit at the time. it wasn't the b, james who with the stars, but the don't seems to go back and watch some of them and just see the outfits and see the dancing will always be extremely unique because that type of thing will never be repeated. it is. and the influence that, that hit on generations will always be. and so anyone to look at them even then if they look at it and see some of the mood for some of that they were doing it. oh my god, the, the choice sound is funky. i don't care what they say. i notice is the home a techno and yes, techno was created there, but the house came 1st,
2:52 pm
then tech know well only now the question is, who did what? when and what did they bring to the scene? i got the biggest kick a flip with the record over but i thought how cool is that? because this is a real factory. now, this was not a fake factory. they were really working on like the d days after to and tables. oh no, it wasn't, nothing plugged up, but we looked like we would good when we looked like we would get i don't care what it is. so every type of music happens because of some of the type of music. the film black to take no re examines the story. and also how nights the roll women played in detroit. it's never one history. we're talking about thousands of different histories and stories. and that's how we silence out. people like the fear come into or the females to chase and producers from that time because there's
2:53 pm
no books or sources like this thing for their stories. so this is why i think it's now we are in this moment that we have to push, you know, further their story is and not only who is asking the same people. what happened just some of the opportunities that were given to man, we're not given as well to women. and so we have to still kick down doors to make things happen. and we're just now in this last decade, getting the recognition that like we weren't there and call the detroit to talk to the 19 seventies and eighties told. stacy, how everything she knows, she quickly made a name for himself as a house d j and became pulse of detroit's queer music scene. the fact that they also had a major influence on the development of techno as only now were you much i think what is happening that they're doing their homework,
2:54 pm
the 10 they're reaching out to, you know, says so thank god, here's social media because of the time that i was evolving, there was no social, it was a paper flyer, a text on a page or, or in a phone call. stacy hale has been doing, producing teaching and doing radio shows for about 40 years. she's one of the few female teachers. i've had a generation to make a name for himself in detroit, and then people are now taking an interest in what those on the other side of the atlantic were up to so many years ago. and not just anywhere but in the cities most famous. and in some is techno, except that time i need a select few are allowed in here and that goes for everyone. even the days i know that it had a history and is well respected. and, you know, that's,
2:55 pm
that's all i know. so my friends was, they found that i was going to be here. they just said it is the place. so i had no idea the dish these days, the bill in clubs seen aims for more diversity in lineups. to extract the real roots of techno and the whole spectrum of electronic music you know, i knew of many things going on. but most of the time, things like this, you know, was all screwed to the man. and so getting this opportunity to come here to represent i'm so excited in the city way a tech know made it big hasn't missed as one of the most important music metropolis is in the world. and stacy have now finally has the chance to contribute to it. i want to tell a story to me, that's what the thing is about. and i think in
2:56 pm
a culture that again playing music, even if it's a set time happening in the world or within the city, or even in your home, you put on music to make the chaise your feeling aside. it's all about letting loose and feeding the moments wherever you are in berlin, the choice or anywhere else at the movement festivals. the best place of techno is we discovering its rates and celebrates electronic music. the
