Handbuch der populären Musik, c1997(techno: variant of house music, originating in Detroit at end of 1980s; replaced original Afro-American and Latin-American roots of house by drawing upon synthetic sound concepts of new wave as well as minimalist aesthetic of the German electronic band Kraftwerk; developed from this a dance music which was decidedly mechanical, pounding like a machine, highly technologized, digitally produced; term first used in title of album issued in London by Virgin Records in 1988; at beginning of 1990s, took discotheques practically by storm, especially in metropolises of North America and Europe; in the process, split into subcategories (ambient, breakbeat, gabber, goa, hardcore techno, jungle, tekkno, trance, tribal); meanwhile, original form also trades under the name Detroit techno; the term "techno-pop" appears as cross-ref. to "synthi-pop," a style which came on the scene in Great Britain in 1982)
