Does anyone out there agree with me that "Protection" by Massive Attack is an Intelligent Dance masterpiece? The title track alone is a beautiful example of how electronic music can be moving and emotionally resonant. Even the more hiphop influenced tracks are brilliantly evocative and atmospheric. I would also like to recommend, just as an experimental oddity from the past, the 1980 solo album by Andy Partridge of XTC. There are some remarkably ahead-of-their-time tracks on this LP. It may not necessarily be dance music, but some of it definitely qualifies as excellent electronic listening music. I believe it is available as a CD reissue titled "Explode Together - The Dub Experiments" and is credited to XTC.

Although I haven't seen it, I would suspect that "Explode Together - The Dub Experiments" would be more likely to contain the XTC stuff like "Go+" (an extra 12" that came with early copies of "Go 2") and the various random B-side tracks that made up the "Homo Safari" series, rather than contain Andy's solo LP "Take Away/The Lure of Salvage". I could be mistaken, though ... (That said, I'll second JJ's recommendation that they were ahead-of-their-time tracks. I have all of them ... ) - Greg

You are both correct. I don't have the CD with me to prove it, but I do remember selling my vinyl copy of that Andy Partridge album because the Dub Experiments album had that plus Go+ plus some other stuff. Brian OnNow: Electro Harmonix (Tetsu Inoue & Jonah Sharp on Fax)
