Didn't Jeff Mills do this too? I love this idea, but honestly both he and Carl Craig's end result (though massively orchestrated and professionally executed) were repetitive and not that exciting for me.

 

So far the only artist I've come across who combines orchestra with drum machines, acid even, in an interesting, more melodic way is The Carrier Wave.

 

The Carrier Wave - Prim, Proper Acid from his 'Rich and Strange' EP out on Complex Sound Sagacity:

And here combining drum machines with choir vocals....

Someone needs to invent a genre of music that makes you see things without the aid of other substances. I mean the sounds/patterns literally stimulate the part(s) of my brain that "sees" things and put on a show. Like a sound hologram of a specific image painted/sculpted by the artist. That would be awesome.

 

 

Albums would be released with disclaimers like "Do not listen while operating heavy machinery", etc.

Hybrid did this with their album Wide Angle. It was fantastic.

That Carl Craig tune posted above would be so much better if it was just the dude playing the piano without the horribly bland & generic house beat over it.

i thought you were going to say Orbital, but does this really count? What im hearing is orchestral sampling banks, not an orchestra. And if this counts then RDJ album would be in this canon as well, but i thought the poster meant real orchestra + drum machine

I didn't think he meant limited to live orchestra but I guess you're right about Orbital, I hadn't thought of them.

 

 

 

Really enjoy these, thanks. Gonna' look this guy up.

I'd be curious to hear what you guys think about Zs. They're a band who've been around for a few years and are making some of the more interesting stuff that I can think of. I'm intrigued by their idea of the band as operating as "one big muscle", which is apparent in the second section of 'Nobody Wants to Be Had' and some of their older works.
