as far as the term.. "intelligent" or "transcendental" goes, i would just say that what i am doing could be a bit more interesting than some other music in the same genre out there. i am sick and tired of a lot of the cheesy trance stuff, the stuff that MUST use some vocal sample from some woman, and i never really enjoyed a lot of rotterdam stuff, soo. i also want the music that i do to be listenable as well as somewhat movement provoking. notice that i did not say "danceable," but i think that the music can be listened to while riding a bicycle, driving a car, etc. well, enjoy, those of you getting the tapes. sines
