intelligent 'avin it' techno

does that exist?

[Jay Pace]

Speedy J about the nearest thing I can think of epper

subtle layering, altering rhythms, achieves masses by not really changing much.

electric deluxe as good an example of anything I can think of.

[stjohn]

Lol at laughing man..

+1 with 65D Mavericks,
Echospace are also good for polyrhythmic stuff
Monolake

you could also maybe give him something else, like AFX - Fenix Funk 5, or something from Clarks last albums.

or something that extends from more academic backgrounds...sampling, found sound, music concréte. Matmos had an album there where they sampled everything from a liposuction operation....

[rhythmtech]

does that exist?

no, not in chinstrokersville


.. elsewhere yes

[stjohn]

intelligent tho?

edit:: just to clear it up, i just dont like that word in reference to music at all...

[DannyBlack]

a certain level of inteligence has to go into music making, no?

CJ Colland - Right On/the Digger

A bit trancy, but i think it's sorta what you're looking for.

Also try:
Vibe Bar Rejects - Brown Nun (highly recomended)
Chris Liebing - bangpop
Laurent Garnier - Crispy Bacon
Rolando - Night Of The Jaguar (maybe)

[p_brane]

i'd definately recommend inigo's stuff on his ASY mp3 releases.

spindelen husen on ASYMP3 10 springs to mind. has a really interesting arrangement

I wouldn't say it's a prerequisite.

I mean, you don't have to have an IQ of 160 to play a guitar, or any instrument for that matter.

A certain level of creativity, yes definitely.

i play guitar and my IQ is no way near 160 :lol: so yes, point taken.

[The Overfiend]

There's a track on Dynamic Tension starts out nice and atmospheric then a break comes in and it goes into a steady 4/4 track.
Everyone's played it.

Dj Shufflemaster remix to Cut The Shit works for that as well.

That`s still a no then.

This one's a lot less heavy than ones that might have been mentioned but still has a lot of interesting stuff going on. Plus it's got the angle of being something that uses synthesizers but not in a conventional way at all, some Risset-like effects and what have you:

Vromb - Locomotive

[RDR]

I like that Vromb track, not heard it before... i can see why its called locomotive.

IMO intelligent music of any sort is music which has something to say more complex than "Get yo Jit on" or "Suck me off" or some other crap like that.

Music which tries to inform rather than command.

[DannyBlack]

bollocks. Music is as music does. Perhaps "Intelligent" was too strong a word to use. I suppose creative is the better word.

I'd sum up "intelligent" music as experimental, if not, then almost. Focusing on complex drum patterns, atmospheric layering which often creates a soothing, otherworldly vibe. Usually around 140-150bpm. I'd also say it's produced more for the listening experience rather than dance floor destruction (imo).
But yeah, i agree with what you said too.

Ah man, you`ve reminded me of some great industrial electronic music I have now.
I love Vromb
