I only implied a tendency. Most "idiotic" things I hear these days are DJs and trance operators saying their real electronic.

I would be most glad to see, to expect or to hear progressive electronic at the modern rate just as well as the "delirious" classics. Smile

There are plenty of modern electronic bands that aren't Trance, techno, jungle, etc - but even then, some of that music is extremely progressive and should seriously be considered.

Try Cabaret Voltaire (late 1970s) and Autechre (2000s) for truly avante-garde and progressive electronic music, then explore some of the On-U Sound System material (1980s-90s), Mark Stewart and the Mafia particularly.

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

phillipe? WinkLOL

I think it certainly makes sense to put progressive bands if they are progressive. name the electronic bands/music/sound from the decade of the 90s that would fit the chapter. but don't imply the abnegation of existing things out of the absence of others. Sure, I myself can't think of modern electronic bands that aren't DJ-ish, techno-ish, trance-ish et caetera-ish (due to the fact the progressive electronic bands from the 70s turned out themselves towards this fluently commercial side), but, as I've said, any example that would come fit is welcomed.


Modern music can be equally considerated. Just once more into the electronic area, take Jesdat, a Spanish experiment of musicianship and music. Excellent and interesting form for these times, moderate only by themselves. Tongue

Not the most influential, just missing:

Patrick Vian (fra)

these might fit too, but are maybe RIO, Avant or Kraut. I'm not sure:

Peter Frohmader (ger)
Herbert F. Bairy (ger)

Michael's contribution to the invention, Agitation Free, solo albums, TD, soundtracks and overall, is of interest, though much behind the scene. Your doing a great job and I am not your critic. Only supporter!Cool

 
BTW great picture of Michael at the office, on ProgArchive entree you just added, philly!Clap

I've just added Michael Hoenig in the archives. I don't consider his work as truly innovative because all technologies and musical ingredients are similar to TD. The same thing happens for Peter Baumann.

Anyway thanks for your support on some interesting musical considerations.

its retro, its house, its mechanical, it has no soul, its cut and press, its the wrong direction, its not symphonic, its synthetic, its electronica, its lifeless, its an opinion, its on the autobahn ?
 
 
its devo vs cat stevens

I think you might find interest in Michael being a key figure in the invention of the digital sequencer and passing it on to Klaus Schulze, which basically revolutionized the progressive electronic genre as a whole. His work with Agitation Free wasnt bad either.Big smile

I'm actually working on this subgenre for a better visibility...you can notice that many bands have been added recently...those you mention also deserve a particular interest, they will be added soon or later. Thanks for your patience.
Just a precision, none of them can be considered as the most "influential"...I prefer to start with founders, I'm not sure that Michael Hoenig  is a key figure because his work in solo is simply a correct copy of TD, anyway you are right that he should be here (but not as a priority).
