  • Awesome track, love the clip too - wish i was in that room! Moment in history right there!

    There are many influences for this type of music, obviously the italo movement and lets not forget yellow magic orchestra. Vicious Pink Phenomena used the word techno in their 1982 track My Private Tokyo. Gary Numan etc etc.

  • Love it! Bert*

  • niggas knew how to get down back in the day! it sure went downhill for them, lmao

  • R.I.P. Leonard Turner-Looking back Moses ,one of the Huggins bros, FRED,etc...

  • I would bet one finger that the presenter was high! lol

  • @brincher lol BAKED

  • Now tell me that electro and techno music didn't come from Afro American culture. This video is pure gold.

  • @AmAxOReload well they didn't originate but they became dance genres due to Afro american culture. I mean we would have electro and techno music anyways because the origins are in Europe but most probably the sound would'nt be that enjoy-able and dance-able as this is.

  • @akis723 Exactly. But what would have been electro-techno culture if it wasn't for its danceable dimension? Not really a culture. See Kraftwerk, their music was intentionally cold as hell cause they wanted to reproduce the feeling of a robot world. Then Afro-Americans like Numbers of Names and Juan Atkins came, and gave soul to Krafwerk's technological world, and electro-techno culture was born.

    Europe created the robot, America made it dance. 

  • @AmAxOReload "Europe created the robot, America made it dance." i like that :))). I just think is too far fetched to say that without the danceable dimension there would be no actual culture; but for certain the danceable element enriched the movement. By the way i like this more than "alleys..." much more darkness and groove in this. I bet Prince would love to have made that track

  • @AmAxOReload Don't forget Telex 'Moskow Diskow' from 1978 which was a major inspiration for 'Sharevari' (as was Moroder and Peter Moesser Music's 'High' from '77). These records bridged Disco and Techno in Europe and all made for dancing.

  • Soultrain Wanna bee

  • Fucking classic. Love the Detroit sound.

  • Classic clip / classic track.

    I never tire of watching this :)

  • Believe it or not, I used to dance on thi show. I remember the stage managers, nat Morris, all featured dancers. First time I ever went down the line, my heart jumped through my jacket..LOL

  • @boriqua66 Me too..I used to be so scared to go down the line...I went on to do Dance Fever, and Puttin On the Hits

  • Hey Jedi7acen that was the good old day in Detroit. Who knows we all was watching history.

  • Fast Freddie was always sharp as hell! The only time Freddie was dressed to sweat was when he took off jacket.

  • Fast Freddie use to get down!

  • Anybody Remember Nat morris solo realease? "We are here to geek you up."

  • @wayjac67 LOL Somebody else remembers that song. OK who got it for YouTubin?

  • fucking awesome

  • The birth of electronica! No place like the "D"!! Sharevari!

  • The guy at 4:20 is mimicking the early Prince days when. Wow....boy I do remember this song.

  • theirs so many great things to say about this video haha, first off these cats can dance!!!, haha that much is clear!, also gotta love the token white guy, and of course the COKED up tv presenter!..epic

  • This track is FIRE!

  • Lotta Kraftwerk as usual.

  • I think Juan Atkins has co-produced this track..am I wrong?

  • What is this song?!!?

  • @boonjah a number of names - "sharevari"

  • i can sense a little napolean dynamite with the white guy dancing, has this video ever been released??

  • bravo sharevari, brilliant to say the least..

  • Proof that Detroit is truly where the roots of electronic lie...

  • @dkheersink

    er, Germany?

  • @dkheersink That's Right!

  • @dkheersink Hello, learn thy history man... The roots go waaay back. And not necessarily Detroit, look to Düsseldorf for instance (Kraftwerk), or Canada (Bruce Haack), Manhattan (Raymond Scott), France (Pierre Henry), London (Delia Derbyshire) or Holland (Tom Dissevelt & Kid Baltan), there is so much... If you mean as fullblown electro music, look no further than Kraftwerk.

  • @cometothesabbat i'm from detroit and can back that. no musical movement is an isolated incident. at this time, it was kinda a wave that limited electronic musicians were riding. regardless. detroit added it's own level of awesomeness that can't be denied. i grew up on this shit, and even though i live in L.A. 20 years or so later, I play early Detroit techno for my music nerd friends to this day and it blows their minds.

  • @dkheersink you're wrong. The roots of electronic are clearly in Germany, France and i would say in Japan (Y.M.O, and all that synthesizers or boxes like TR-909, TB-303..).

    A Number of Names, like first techno or electro hiphop tunes are copycats of Kraftwerk most known tunes (from T.E.E to Computer World) . Besides, electronic music avant-garde took place in the early 50's in France, and Germany. Means that 30 years of Electronic Music had past when Techno was just beginning.

  • you know that is bullshit. It cant be from anyone place either. Even back in the 50's there was a back and forth from Europe and USA

  • @niceanddestroyed A lot of the late 70s early 80s disco was electronic too. However, none of the music you mentioned is really funky shit for shaking your arse to is it? Detroit & Chicago created Electronic Dance Music, the stuff that was happening in Europe was mostly artsy tinkering and experimental noise ( i mean that in a good way , I'm European and I love the stuff).

  • @dkheersink Techno City undisputed!

  • The days when people weren't afraid to dance...ahhh!

  • This is the kind of thing that makes me ashamed of my white, no mojo self :/

    The clubs, at least in Toronto these days .. everyone is toooo cool.

  • Damn listen to that fuckin base-line ! Its so like today's electro music scene

  • This is my theme song and it's BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!! I like it in 45 speed as well.. Detroit Stand up!
