TD and the cutting egde of EM
...what sort of music would these reviewers like TD to be producing these days, in order for them to still be seen at the perceived cutting edge of EM?
Perhaps in order to answer with any degree of accuracy, we need to judge who actually IS at this cutting edge these days. Future Sound Of London? Orbital? Goldfrapp even? Kraftwerk? In fact, is ANYONE at this cutting edge these days? IS there such an edge anymore? Any suggestions anyone? And if so, would we all be happy if TD sounded like FSOL?
The natural development of EM seems to have come to an end in many ways, hence the move into a retro sound by so many artists. They say that a culture starts to repeat itself when it can go no further. Is it possible to develop EM any further? It's development is partly dictated by technology, so how can technology help in developing EM into 2009?
Or do we even care that TD are no longer at the cutting edge, so long as they're producing good music?
