"Night Drive (Thru Babylon)," Model 500 (1985)

 

Early Detroit techno pioneer Juan Atkins as Model 500 (Channel One, Borderland, Cybertron, Belleville Three), Metroplex Records, electro sound influenced by Kraftwerk, Giorgio Moroder, and Space Disco (Meco, French band Space). The sound goes back to the 1970s in Europe but Detroit techno gives it an austere, minimalist, endlessly unspooling, shifting, hypnotic retro-space groove rust belt motor city signature. Neo-Noir sounds of the 20th century.
