Somehow people in this thread have made the complete opposite of the argument that was made in the conceptronica one. Now you can hear all the lofty concerns in the music without reading the press release.

I stuck on Thor the dark world instead and it's eye wateringly bad

(for anyone ITT)

suppose you're only hearing this stuff in a decontextualized form: on youtube, not in a social gathering of any kind (and lacking experience with the intended audience). in that scenario, do you think you can hear this difference in intent/design, generally? can you judge just from listening in your room—idm style—that mark fell is kind of danceable, but jungle is “precision tooled” for danceability?

(and yeah, i realize it’s a question only a hopeless nerd would ask. that's obviously why i asked it. …do have my own ideas about how this dynamic works, though)
