God Said Give 'Em Drum Machines: The Book

Jennifer Washington with Jeff Alulis and Kristian R. Hill. Foreword by David Grandison Jr.

At the heart of Techno music is a pulse that has been beating since the 1980s. This encyclopaedic book brilliantly illuminates the Black origins of the funky hi-tech Detroit sound that inspires electronic dance music today. ‘GSGEDM: The Book’ chronicles a personal story of how the camera-toting Washington Hill Pictures team made the ‘God Said Give ‘Em Drum Machines’ documentary over a 12-year timeline, and put Detroit on the map as an official music capital of the world.
