More than twenty years ago, I snuck out of my parents house and went to my first rave in Detroit. The venue was an abandoned school on Woodward. DWynn was spinning and I was hooked as soon as I heard Cajmere’s track “Percolator.” A couple of years later, in the autumn of my freshman year of college, I met up with ed luna and, shortly thereafter, the rest of ele_mental (Titonton Duvante, Todd Sines and Charles Noel). Tonight I am heading to New York City to celebrate twenty years of ele_mental and, by extension, more than twenty years of listening, and dancing, to techno music.
