Techno: Modern day Symphonies

This might be a stretch. But I really imagine that techno music as the modern day symphony. Now when I say techno music, I don't mean any random trance dj's. I mean the artist that creates albums such as Daft Punk, The chemical brothers, and Fatboy Slim.

Consider this, the symphonies back in the day were meant to tell a story with the use of instruments. There wasn't use of any visual effects, it was pure music. So people would go to a symphony, sit down, listen to the music and just imagine the story being told. With each performance being a different telling of the story. I'm a big fan of classical music. I have attended symphonies before and I'm really trying to get back playing the piano.

Now techno music is just like a symphony. Except instead of using classical instruments, they're using the technology of today. If you sit down and listen to Daft Punk's album Discovery, the one with one more time and harder better faster stronger, you will understand why. Instead of the conductor, theirs the artists. And Instead of a orchestra there's the machines and synthesizers. They don't just make a bunch of random noises. They tell a story and make you picture it with your mind. Daft Punk does aid you with a visual aid with their movie Interstella 5555. Proving that their telling a story and not just make random noises.

Whether its classical or techno, I feel I can sit down listen to the music and get lost into it. Now when I say get lost into the music, I mean let the music take you away. You feel the music in your blood. Your mind is envisioning the picture they are painting. Mass props to you if you understand what I'm talking about when I say I get lost into the music.
