Just throwing out a very high recommendation for an album that fits
the concept of intelligent *dance* music more than alot of other things these days
Shawn Rudiman "Synthesexual" on Technoir Audio
They just had a release party last night, and I got to pick up the album. It's very good music
that works on the dancefloor and in the headphones. His sound is heavily influenced by
classic detroit techno, but its by no means a totally dancefloor album, with some downtempo cuts
that would be totally at home on AI or even Warp, some vocoder electro, soulful electronic funk etc..
You can check it out on their site, or just look for it in your shops soon.
