The entire history of modern music is based on white people pretending to be black. I do wonder how weird this will appear to people hundreds of years from now. Essentially, it's no different to the Black and White Minstrel Show.

Of course, Kraftwerk are massively influential, and you couldn't get a whiter group than that (with the likes of Afrika Bambaataa sampling them etc), but I think they are the exception.

There was Giorgio Moroder and Gary Newman too, so you could say techno was started by the Europeans and stolen by Americans.subsub wrote:Of course, Kraftwerk are massively influential, and you couldn't get a whiter group than that (with the likes of Afrika Bambaataa sampling them etc), but I think they are the exception.
