Techno is commonly said to originate in 1980's Detroit. This style and period of techno is commonly referred to as Detroit techno. As hinted at, this "genre" is very much alive. But some people say that techno has its real origins in the late disco/early house scene sparked off by Donna Summer's 1977 hit "I Feel Loved" which at the time was said to be a very "futuristic" song. But without a doubt, the Detroit techno scene was most likely spawned by the late '70's early 80's house scene. Noted Detroit techno artists from the mid 1980's are Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson, and Derrick May.

I hope this answers your question!
