Biography

With his roots in funk and the achievements of Giorgio Moroder and Kraftwerk. Juan Atkins is one of those who created and defined the Detroit hard house sound, one of the pillars of American techno music. More of a DJ/arranger/remixer than a composer, his various albums, produced under multiple pseudonyms, are long sequences of rhythmic loops. This original techno has remained oriented towards live performance, in contrast to house music, which is played in clubs.
