Rating: Summary: aspiring philosophers Review: This film was a dissapointment to me. It really took something away from my love of techno. I tired of watching/listening to "artist" after "artist" try to wax philosophical, to floor me by saying something deep and profound. Much ado about nothing.
Rating: Summary: Interesting history of electronic music Review: This is one of the better documentaries on electronic music. It was very interesting and informative.
Rating: Summary: The story and the heroes Review: This is the complete story about the contemporary music. From the begin until today, from the early experiments until the actual icons of techno and electronic music. Simple amazing.
Rating: Summary: A MUST FOR ALL ELECTRONIC MUSIC FANS Review: This video isn't perfect but it's the best so far in covering the entire spectrum of electronic dance music. It goes so far as to actually showing the Roland keyboard factory! There's multiple interviews with legendary pioneers from decades ago along with today's new artists. There's coverage of Love Parade in Berlin and various other raves. Just about every style of dance music is represented. Drum and Bass and House probably got the most attention. It breaks down to the smallest components of electronic music and how artists get and arrange samples. It's a great introduction to electronic music for those who don't quite understand it yet and a great history lesson to those of use who already love it.
Rating: Summary: If you like to listen to boys talk, this is for you. Review: Touted as the definitive work on electronica, the guys start talking and never stop. Though many interesting observations about the genre from its origins in disco to the influence of diverse races and cultures are effectively made, some questions receive scant attention. For example, while there is an interesting scene which shows how the equipment itself is made by women, every performer interviewed, spoken of, or filmed is male which makes one wonder what that might be all about?
