About this record:
Garnier was one of the first Europeans to mix American house and techno music in Britain, in the glory days of the Hacienda in the late 80's. Craig is considered as one of the main figures of the second generation of Detroit techno. His takes here are mostly emanated from Europe and some are immediately recognizable as techno, where Garnier's choices are a testimony to the genre's main influences and an eclectic tribute to the town that saw its emergence: Detroit. So expect the unexpected here!
