Moby and Arpeggiators are music of course, and mostly dance, so what are you
implying, floo? :) Anyways, Moby has some decent ambient stuff...lotsa 606
sounding stuff too.

Agreed. But the "Age of Trance" compilation CD which I suggested in my last
post has the subtitle "a new generation of intelligenct dancemusic"
Many times it's been suggested to do away with labels -- trying to use terms
to define music. I say forums should be define by giving artists' names as
examples. There's plenty of examples...these should be used moreso than
genre names.
Then again, what do I know...? It's up to you.
