Intelligent Dance Music / ElectronicaIDM, braindance, ambient techno, electronica or whatever else you call Warp/Skam/Schematic/Planet-Mu/Rephlex/Raster-Noton type music goes here.
What I heard was so-so. The collaboration with Funkstorung was sounding good but the others aren't quite what I am into. Personal preference I suppose. The album is over 2 discs and lots of collabs (23) so you get a lot of different styles on there.

When emailing the other half of the 2DC earlier I said this:
Quote:
the Funkstorung one is awesome, the Machinedrum one isn't that good, the Candie Hank one isn't that good, the Mesak & Claws one is quite cool, the Junior Boys one is passe.
Safe to say Syro, Culprate and the new Clark album are streets ahead.
I will listen to the new release, but since Parastrophics (which is a solid 9/10 LP IMO) it feels like that they are forcing out meh quantity over quality. I hope I am proven wrong with this release.
