Actually, a couple of years ago, Kevin Saunderson not only spun breaks, but he also invited Manix over to Detroit for a couple of parties and put out one of their singles on KMS.. One of the really interesting aspects about breaks is that most of the musicians are black.. I think that Kevin recognized the parallels one could draws between the Detroit and British scenes in that respect.. LTJ Bukem is one of the best examples of this awareness.. He's always playing and makin' cuts that are chock full of old techno samples.. JAmie
