well Josh, simply put, because 'intelligent' music is
somethign worth listening to? See, there are some
of us who hear the music on the radio and MTV ...
and this "WHAT?!" - I'm sure you're one of those
people. Intelligent is a relative term (IMO) describing
music that is in contrast to much mainstream music
in that there is more soul than poppy market-appealing
bullshit. Since even in electronic music we have
said bullshit, we needed a name to dub this 'good'
music worth listening to by. I say its a good term.
And by the way, sure, I think there's intelligent trance.
There's this group caled Aqualite - which by the way,
someone should point us/me to a siet or discog. or something,
that makes intelligent trance, especially good trance, even
if youre not a trance fan. And since trance AND intelligent
are such broad categories, most anythign -could- be inter-
preted as intelligent trance. IMO, aqualite and some DJs like
digweed and oakenfold fall under this category (though
definitely not interrelated :)
