^^^You're not too bright, buddy. Let me put it to you this way. The first 'electro scene' was synonymous with the b-boy scene in North America, because of its use of breakbeats and ties with hip hop. The first 'scene' in which electro flourished was the streets of New York, onto which it was transported by Kraftwerk and Afrika Bambaataa in the late 70's and early 80's. Alright?

LieberDJ, all that stuff you mention is all well and good, but it's missing one key component that is absolutely essential to electro, and is absent from all other works because only American black funk musicians understand it so well: Bass.
Miami is the home of the motherfucking bass
Detroit motorcity is always in the place
Germany can't you see is where it all began
Kraftwerk and Bambaataa had a master plan |
Ironically, that song was written by two white guys.
