Back in the mid 80's I stumbled onto a thing called Cable Radio. I would hook the cable tv wire to the antenna of my boom-box and right around the 104mhz area I could tune into WJLB in Detroit. I lived in Lansing and depending on conditions the station came in clear as if I was in Downtown Detroit. At 11pm on Fridays and I believe on Saturday as well, the station gave way to "The Wizard on 98, WJLB" I'd record the programs on tape and replay them over and over. There was no doubt at all that this guy was phenomenal. I've noticed while reading about this guy that most people say he broke out the Techno sounds of Detroit and while that's true, it's only half of the story. He pushed hiphop to a new level as well. He didn't follow the footsteps of groups like Public Enemy, he walked along-side them and inspired the future DJ's across the nation. User:68.255.75.105

Hi I re-inserted the quote from the Daily Yomiuri, as this is a reptable newspaper and supports the context (the Mix-Up album) here. Hope this OK. If you decide to delete again, can you let me know the reasons for future reference? Thanks. Nina 121.3.140.159 23:13, 31 October 2007 (UTC) 121.3.140.159 23:14, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] POV

I love Jeff Mills and Detroit techno as much as anyone but this article is subjective!

Also, how did JM reach 2 in "the charts"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.105.249.122 (talk) 00:56, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pseudonyms

A point that must be mentionened is Mills' acting under various pseudonymes, such as X-101. Also with regard to the upcoming, astonishing comeback of Mills & Banks as "X-102". See e.g. tresorberlin.com for details. Greetings from Germany. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.175.213.97 (talk) 18:07, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
