[edit] Techno additions

I don't understand if this is the place to discuss this article or if I'm supposed to do it at some central world music project node, but anyway...

The treatment of Techno is too cursory in the article at present. I propose changing the subject headings to split the "Melting Pot: 1990s - Present" section into a "Techno City" section for the 1980s and a section on Detroit Hip-Hop and Nu-Metal-y stuff in the 1990s. Ghettotech is innacurately described as a fusion of house and hip hop. It is more like a fusion of Chicago Ghetto House and Detroit Techno Bass, which are sorts of very aggressive House and Electro, respectively.
