Well Techno was created by Afro-american DJ's in detroit, Techno is obviously African influenced its got heavy polyythm, its just the polyrthm doesnt change that much, but its obvious. If anything Techno sounds more African than hiphop.
Rock is harder to trace its got both European and Africna influence, the behavior of Rock (The way the guitar is held upwards is very African, thats how people in Mali hold the Kora), However its obvious Rock has both European and African influences.
Where there is easier distction i believe is inthe singing, when i hear a Black/Afro-descendant woman sing traditional music, its hard for women of other "races" to mimmick them. Heres an example. Gives me chills, the voice of an African/Afro-descendant woman, very spiritually connecting.
