First of all, I am not advocating Prgressive rock. I am not saying it is 
advanced, either. I just find it "Interesting" that people don't think of it 
as advanced, while advocating techno as advanced(which to me sounds 
primitive).

I also have extensive education in both electronics and composition, as well 
as being an accomplished player. I first started playing around with Synths 
when they used to have oscillators on their bellies... we'd make sawtooth 
waves and go "''woah"...bzzz!
    Taking music and art into new realms (for me) require a commitment to 
exactly the opposite, not losing "interest" in the fundamentals. This is 
exactly what I find boring with the many MANY house, dub, techno, ambient, 
and electronica CDs that I REALLY want to like... they've abandoned all else 
in a quest for "waoh"...bzzzz
So -- when you have *found* all the sounds - let me know and maybe we can 
arrange them into a pleasant mixture that includes harmonies, structures and 
we'll explore some new architecture..
