    Bro, you have no clue of what your talking about, I live in the D, there's parties left right and center, aswell as the spur of the moment underground warehouse raves that brought techno to light.

    There's parties every week in the D usually consisting of pure raw Techno but including house, drum n bass and proper electro not the "mainstream" electro. Aswell one of the best IDM labels is run out of Detroit - Detroit Underground.

    I don't know about other cities in the States, but don't come talking out of your ass about Detroit when I'm here living and breathing the scene.
