What do you like about electronic music?

The title says pretty much 90% of it.

not a damn thing. it's all rubbish

noises and stuff yeah

i like the beeps and boops

i like everything about it except lady gaga.

Experimentation. Rich and alien textures. Strange beats that aren't possible with human performers.

Wow. Read the rules.

I like Lady Gaga's bum.

it's humans mastering their technology. it's us vs our machines, and the results can be beautiful, alien, and infinitely complex when it's done right. that's why i like it at least.

more possibilities and less limiting in creativity compared to most other types of music

For me, it's the near infinite possibilities of timbre. To be able to use any sound and texture is liberating.

Read the Rules

"They're about guns, lasers, robots with laser guns in space. Monsters from the future. Explosions. Sylvester Stallone doing a backflip on top of a spike while Robocop carries a ghost up a mountain. Bombs and swords and that... electronic music is awesome"

There's this Richard guy that lives in a bank and drives a tank and he's supposed to be making electronic music, maybe you should google him up!
