The Techniques is a Reggae act. Their sound grew out of The Heptones and Stranger Cole. Those roots explain a lot about how The Techniques arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Paragons, The Jamaicans, Derrick Morgan, The Ethiopians and The Heptones, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Nora Dean, Don Campbell, Ken Parker, Tenor Saw and Musical Youth, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 23 connections around The Techniques, reaching back through The Heptones and forward to Nora Dean.
