Hey, I'm with you. I like most of those guys, buy I am old school.

Frankie Knuckles
Alan Ester (Detroit)
Derrick May (Detroit)
Kevin Saunderson (Detroit)
Todd Terry
Mike Grant (Detroit)
Juan Atkins (Detroit)

Without these guys, this wouldn't even be a conversation. That list is where House and Techno began. Right in my front yard.

We used to pay $5 to get in to an old store front, or warehouse, to hear these guys spin, and a bag of weed (that you could roll 15 joints from) was $10.
