"And, you see, no one man owns house because house music is a universal language, spoken and understood by all."
And also: it ain't where you from it's where you at.
but the problem here is one of primacy, and the central genetic axis of this music
Probably humans originated in Africa, and therefore probably drums did. Big whoopee. That's all our joint ancestry. Black Americans don't own the 4/4 beat any more than white Frenchmen because we all came from the same place. Nobody knows what colour the earliest people were; nowadays we come in a variety of hues.
Do European and Asian musicians have to disregard all of musical history right down to hitting drums in order for you to credit them with worthiness? Because modern africans are black, therefore modern white people are just copying them? Even though we have the same ancestors?
To say Kraftwerk didn't originate anything is as ridiculous as saying Juan Atkins didn't, or Little Richard didn't.
Kraftwerk were influenced by James Brown and the Beach Boys and Stockhausen and Satie and Schubert and many more. Through that and also in spite of it they created something new. Not 100% new because that's impossible, but at least as new as, say, Detroit Techno was in 1987.
Musical history is a rich back-and-forth between many different groups and individuals.
Race is a red herring for suckers.
Saying "we own this" is stupid. It's more valid for a black person to make techno than a white person?
Was it "biting" for Mark Imperial to make seminal house records in chicago waaaay back in 1985 despite being of Asian descent? (Mark Imperial was DJ Assault's favourite producer when he started DJing)
Get over your silly racial prejudice.
DJ Bone rails against commercialisation of a sound he loves, he's dissing the silly trance shit that was all over German MTV in the 90s. He doesn't say a word about race in your quote. I bet he loves Kraftwerk. I know Derrick May & Juan Atkins do. A couple of years ago I saw Juan & Karl Bartos having a chat, I don't think Juan was attacking Karl for stealing from Motown. Do you think Clear would exist without Numbers first?
Shake isn't saying "White people invented techno" he's glossing over something more complex like: Detroit techno is just an extension of Chicago house and disco + italo + depeche mode + yazoo + YMO + visage + all the other stuff they played on WBMX, some of which is by black people, some by white people, some by Japanese etc.
YMO & Italo disco sounds are influenced by older black music fused with other stuff (plastic asian exoticism / kraftwerk synth sounds).
On the other hand Detroit group A Number Of Names were trying hard to sound European, even putting on a fake accent on the so-called "first ever Detroit techno track" ShariVari.
Back and forth, you see? Everything influencing everything else all the way back to the drums created by humans who were not just the ancestors of modern black people but the ancestors of everybody.
