High Tech Soul - The Creation Of Techno Music

June 28, 2006

High Tech Soul is the first film to tackle the deep roots of techno and the culture of Detroit, its home. Seeking to answer the hows and whys of techno music and its evolution, the film also demonstrates the weird & wonderful effects it has had on its pioneers. Featuring in-depth interviews with many of the world?s most famous exponents of the artform, High Tech Soul is a treat for anyone who has ever been inspired by the genre or got down and shaken their stuff to it?s original sound.

From the riots of 1967 to the underground party scene of the late 80’s, High Tech Soul invites its audience to take a walk around the globe and back to one of the most challenging cities in the world. Artists explain why Techno with its driving beats, abrasive tones, and resonating bass lines could not have come from anywhere else other than Detroit. Much like the city itself, techno is deprived and emotional yet continues to set trends around the world, touching lives no one could have ever imagined.
