Model 500 is the techno alias of Detroit pioneer Juan Atkins, launched in 1985 with 'No UFO's' on his #Metroplex# label. The project's electro-funk singles and albums, from 'Deep Space' (1995) to 'Digital Solutions' (2015), are foundational documents of Detroit techno. Atkins's work under the name is cited wherever techno's origins are discussed, and the project continues to record and perform live.
