Leuke quote uit een interview met Stinson:
"(Techno scene)Ever since the blues and early jazz, black music has been stolen and exploited. It pisses me off that we let it happen. It s a political thing; everybody talks about it under their breath, but they don t come out and say anything about it. As far as I m concerned, Richie Hawtin, Moby, and all the rest of em can do what they want, but don t step into my house if you don t respect it. Don t even call what you do techno ! I don't want to hear anybody saying Richie started any damned thing, cos he ain t started shit. All he did was step in with his money and his Caucasian persuasion and put himself on the market, and now he s got all these kids riding his jock. We never had rich backgrounds; we were working jobs for $4.25 an hour. Our mamas never gave us money to buy keyboards and put records out. We work for our stuff. That s why there s a big difference in the music. Why do Richie and his Plus 8 family come down here and throw parties in downtown Detroit? He brings in all these kids from the suburbs and from Canada, and that shows a lack of respect. I’ve been to every one of those parties and I’ve never heard an Underground Resistance record, a Cybotron record, a Model 500 record or an Eddie Fowlkes record. It s a total lack of respect, and it s got to stop." ***
Die gast had echt veel wijze woorden als je die interviews leest.
