    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:

    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.

    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.

    To answer Danny's earlier question, this is kind of what I'm going for. More headphone techno that dancefloor banger. I'm not wading into the conversation on what's intelligent or not, because stuff like the aforementioned Badger Bite does both very well. Most of his crowd is 55+, so they might automatically be turned off by some really slamming stuff, whereas they'd be a bit more likely to give something more tame and a little more cerebral a fair shake.

    Yeah I've spent today re-listening to other Vromb stuff, the guy's absolutely amazing, my favourite techno producer by miles, even though he's not a techno producer, heh.
