Lesse here. Sweatbox releases are 1988 and 1989. Cybotron's Clear is
1983. Nope. I don't think so! Don't fuck with a fan of true Detroit
techno buddy.

I think if you ask Jack himself he'd give much respect to Coldcut for
being one of the originators of the style back in the late 80's.
Don't you just love inane blanket statements?
I'm a MBM fan, so don't get me wrong but not even Atkins and May are
solely responsible for the music we have today. Ours is the generation
of stolen ideas and sampled sounds. Even Meat Beat Manifesto uses
samples so is it truely original or somebody elses creation???
