Some Detroit Techno Videos


A Number of Names: 'Sharivari' @ The Scene (1982)


Drexciya: 'Hydro Theory' (with footage from Blue Planet BBC series)


Model 500: 'The Passage' (with footage from 2001: A Space Odyssey)

YouTube offers some 313 techno-related videos such as a version of 'Sharivari' (there are many different spellings for this track, such as 'Sharevari', 'Charivari', etc.) by A Number of Names, which is considered one of the first Detroit techno tracks, if not the very first; I was quite amazed to find this video, made for the dance music show The Scene. Then there are some bootleg videos for Drexciya and Model 500, using footage from BBC and Kubrick's 2001, respectively.

    I Need To Freak -- one of my biggest Detroit electro favourites coming to Finland! The musical collaboration of Tommy Hamilton and Keith Tucker started in the mid-1980s. They launched Aux 88 in 1993, releasing a series of legendary 12"s for Direct Beat label. Aux 88 has been gigging among all with Juan Atkins and Mad Mike of Underground Resistance. Recently Hamilton and Tucker returned together after having done solo projects (among all Auxmen) for some years. The new album, called Aux 88 was released in Japan this year. Their earlier album releases are Is It Man Or Machine? (1996) and Xeo-Genetic (1998).

    AUX 88 NEW CD OUT NOW

    Original – (orig*i*nal)
    a: Unique creation from which copies can be made
    b: being the first instance or source from which a copy, reproduction, or translation is or can be made

    Tommy Hamilton (aka Tom Tom) and Keith Tucker (aka DJ K-1) have again combined their AUX minds to reform and create their latest 13 track LP entitled AUX 88. After a long stint in the Aux Quadrant, Reconfiguration of the two entities known as Aux 88 was imminent! Many have been and were confused about the now defunct Auxmen led by Tucker to re-cloak the return of the original Aux 88.

    Are you interested NOW!

    The LP starts off with a classic Vocoder style voice interlude from Tom Tom stating 'We R the Future', followed up by the song and statement 'We Make Beats'. The track is the equivalent to the early soul sonic force sound produced by Posatronix. This LP is a statement of the past and present with vocals from Tucker and Hamilton on tracks like 'The K-1 Theme', 'Clones', 'We are The Future', 'Step into the Light', 'Lost in Outer Space' (Model 500 Style), and ending with a 2005 remix of techno classic 'AUX MIND'.

    Don’t be fooled into thinking that AUX 88 is above creating street funk style grooves. "RATED AUX" will be the next style in the ghetto tech genre. On the Euro inspired acid bass line track 'Tom Tom Beats', Tom Tom plainly lets the fans know: "I have Returned..."
