TryJohnTry: the interesting thing about electronic music is
that its so synthetic but at the same time it is music in
its purest form, being that there is no band to get
destracted by or relate to, no singer or words to relate to,
no person to see making it, only sound and what emotion it
invokes in you
TryJohnTry: no see to relate to
TryJohnTry: oops no scene to relate to
TryJohnTry: every other style of music is wrapped up in
image, even if its just a punk image its still image, or
meaning or words or relating to each other or how much you
jump around and go crazy on stage, electronic music has
nothing to fall back on but sound
TryJohnTry: and i still love organic music dont get me
wrong
TryJohnTry: i just dont feel anyone could ever truely say
they hate electronic music as a whole and still be a fan of
music, cause otherwise they are simply a fan of being
entertained by musicians who dance and look pretty

popular?

TryJohnTry: its like, if you had this song on a cd you liked
alot, and you found out the drums were all programmed and
you never knew this before, you would like it less because
of that. when really there is no logic behind that cause it
still sounds the same as when you loved it before. was it
not the sound you loved before?

sometimes i hear a cacophony of sounds and i like it..then i
listen closer and can identify the different parts, and
suddenly i cant listen to it anymore

TryJohnTry: i think most people exclude electronic music
cause they simply dont understand how it was made, they are
scared for some reason that they are listening to a creation
from the machine itself and not a person
TryJohnTry: my whole point was that electronic music is
music in its purest form, live music and organic music have
other factors that make people like them other than the
music they are creating, people like it cause of how the
band looks and how they relate to everything going on, we
picture someone hitting things and strumming things when we
listen to the cd, electronic music doesnt have anything
else
TryJohnTry: organic music will always have other appeal to
it, we like how or singers look, we like how kurt cobain
looked and dressed and broke things, that had nothing to do
with the music

i dont care how people look, when i listen to a song i never
imagine people playing it. and besides, all kinds of music
has a music video, and once you see that you have to think
about the video regardless of what u thought when listening
to the 'pure' song.

also, in my opinion, 'pure 'electronic music is totally
lyricless...hearing someones voice makes me think it is not
machine made...machine made is good!

that was my point exactly. as soon as vocals are introduced
and as soon as it becomes some sort of performance it loses
some of that purity. but electronic music in the state of
being on a cd is music in its purest form. more so than
organic music on a cd because we have preconceptions of how
we should emotionally react to all the sounds we hear in
organic music. electronic music if done right uses sounds
we've never heard and therefor we have no idea how to react,
we just do. for instance autechre in my mind is the best
example of this. the sounds are brilliant and unearthly and
we have no preconceptions of how to react to them other than
what the artist intended.
