Miles Davis techno

so there was this song I was trying to find, right...and it's this really really famous techno song that's been around for freaken ever now (and everybody knows it when they hear it) and I swear to god I thought the man that made this song went by the name of 'Miles Davis' but upon googling his name - all I could come up with was some apparently uber famous jazz/blues singer from way back in the day
so who the fuck made the most famous techno song of all time, and why the hell do I keep things he had the same name as this jazz fucker

I have no idea... but jazz and techno do not belong together.
Jazz: instrumental prowess and improv.
Techno: Repetetive, layered, no instrumental prowess at all.
Just... no...
But I have no clue who it would be.
Miles was a trumpet player, btw.

Famous techno master lol. I wouldn't really call him a master. He's actually a pianist who got popular from that one song children, that got remixed by everyone a million times. His album actually isn't that great.
And he does trance not techno fool

I like that song by Moby. You probably remember sandstorm from Darude too if you knew about Children:

isn't 'trance' just a sorta sub-category of 'techno' though (kinda like like how 'baroque' is sorta a sub-category of 'art')

No. They are both different sub-genres of electronic music.

I used to go to a lot of raves, so I certainly have a soft place in my heart for that type of music, I've just never really followed it really
