Intro

ElectronicaEclectic

Electronica/Eclectic is an umbrella term used to describe the emergence of Electronic Dance Music increasingly geared to listening instead of strictly dancing (i.e. Post Club Music), Electronica is normally considered more intelligent than dance music. The music is more about using technology to create unusual sounds, melodies and heavily processed drums (often in patterns where the same bar is never repeated requiring painstaking programming). These elements are crafted into an intricate and some times emotive piece of music. The results are usually closer ambient and experimental music than they are to dance music.
