About
Detroit's Juan Atkins and Richard Davis drew the blueprint for techno with their 1981-82 singles "Alleys of Your Mind” and "Cosmic Cars.” But 1983's <i>Enter</i> offers a window on a world where categories were still in flux. New Wave and hard rock wrestle for dominance on "The Line," while "Cosmic Raindance" takes electro into new-age realms. The enduring classic here is "Clear," and not only because it's been sampled by everyone from Afrika Bambaataa to Missy Elliott. Their vision of electronic funk was right on the money.

Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
This first pressing is known for containing the "rougher" original version of track B4 "Clear".
On second (opens in a new tab) pressing variations (opens in a new tab) and subsequent reissues, it was replaced with a Jose Animal Diaz remixed version of the track.
It can be identified from subsequent versions by the differences in runout etchings. Mainly by the additional etchings found on side B of those editions.
Some copies were stamped on the sleeve "Demonstration Not For Sale".
Recorded at Solid Sound, Ann Arbor, except 'Cosmic Cars' and 'The Line' which were recorded at Pearl Sound, Ann Arbor, and 'Alleys Of Your Mind' which was recorded at Randy Howe's Parents' House.
The sleeve credits Juan Atkins as the writer on tracks where he was involved whereas the center labels credit him as both Juan Atkins and Atkins.
