I could rip apart any artist you mention too. There is a genre called IDM and it was pioneered in my mind by aphex twin. Most genres are just combinations of 2 already existing genres and then slapped together. With IDM its not polished, its an orgy of sounds and to a select few with the aquired taste for it, it sounds good.

In your mind which artist is considered a pioneer in "techno"
