There really was no techno in the 80's just electronic music which progressed to what we consider early rave music in the late 80's.

the 80s had synth rock. Now electronica though. Well not really. Early 90s got into dance music a bit. And thats pretty much were it started i think.

soft cell rocks!

some industrial bands have put out tunes that sound very electro/new wave.

it's not like I'm admitting to liking big hair bands =P

and besides, there wouldn't of been very many 'happy' hardcore songs with lyrics in the mid to late 90s without 80s music =P

I'm surprised that there has been no mention of Detroit yet. The early efforts of Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Stacey Pullen, etc laid the groundwork for modern techno.

Yep. Planet Rock brought Kraftwerk to the Bronx, which started the whole electro revolution.
