GROUND:FAULT:INTERRUPT

The techno and house communities have lost two of its great artists and mush loved figures over the past week.
Juan Atkins, known as "The Originator" was the Detroit producer who pioneered the techno sound and gave it it's name. Everyone who has listened to, danced to, or made techno since then has been influenced either directly or indirectly by Juan. He leaves a rich legacy. RIP Juan Atkins (1962 to 2026).

Cevin Fisher was an influential DJ and music producer over 4 decades. He had a distinct sound of his own, and in his early years was mentored by Larry Levan (Paradise Garage). Cevin's tracks feature in DJ sets by DJ Vibe & Steve Lawler and are known for their deep house style. I have a number of his records in the collection and his sound has had an influence on me. RIP Cevin Fisher (1963 to 2026).
