Intelligent Dance Music: term is shit on several fronts. 1) you can't dance to it. 2) implies that other dance musics are somehow
not
intelligent.
100% pure pretentious bullshit. _________________ "Even I know the solution: love, music, wine and revolution..." (magnetic fields)

I did an IQ test and then I listened to aphex twin and did it again. I got a slightly lower score. False advertising cunts! |

Me and D were lying on the floor listening to Autechre 5am Sunday. The ceiling was full of bubbles and we weren't dancing or being very intelligent. maybe they should call it jellied off your spassy tits and crossing over to the next realm music. |

You should be a music journalist. The new wave of "JOYSTACOTHNR" music starts here. |

Surely "Dance music you can't dance to" should just be called, "Shit dance music? _________________ "fashioned by the blade of a world that doesn't care,
feeling so removed, drifting thru stealing air then...
pause and think about it, try to move and shift the pain, but it's there you feel it kicking and you scream and feel alive." |

nah, that could be taken as "dance music, done shittily," rather than "possibly good music, to be judged on its own merits, masquerading as elitist dance tripe" _________________ "Even I know the solution: love, music, wine and revolution..." (magnetic fields)
