I hinted at this in my private email to the person asking about Elektroids
"Kilohertz". (Warp at its worst IMO.)
I don't know that electro ever went away. It's influence was (and is)
strong in the whole techno/idm/industrial-dance spectrum. All that has
happened is the style has cycled back around, and turned into new
stripped-down shapes that more explicitly recall the early-80's
electro-funk.
Try emailing submerge@msen.com (with whom I am not affiliated), and
they'll hook you up with the real thing from Detroit. You won't regret
it.
