Put your hands up for Detroit! The godfather of techno, Juan Atkins, swings in from Motor City to take over the B.O.D.Y.H.E.A.T. decks. Atkins' early releases as Model 500 and Cybotron took Kraftwerk for a night drive through Detroit's underground garage clubs and all-night radio sessions, putting a definitively urban American spin on their icy brand of Teutonic electro. The rest is history, as Atkins has continued to take partyers back to the future with DJ sets that mix classic techno cuts with the newer material they helped inspire.
