> It’s intellectually interesting, but nobody could actually dance to it. In Dungeons and Dragons terms, the song has astronomical Intelligence, fairly high Charisma, and low to medium Wisdom. I’d rather hear all this craft being poured into a straightahead groove that’s more amenable to audience participation. It's kinda nice to see someone getting all elitist about Music Should Be Danceable; usually when I see this sort of attitude it's connected to people sneering at music that makes people wanna shake their asses for being "simple". But there's lots of things you can do with music, and some of them are danceable, and some of them are most emphatically not. You can't dance to bebop, you can't dance to Gregorian chants, you can't dance to ambient. And if this Collier dude wants to chase cold intellectual undanceable thrills and has an audience willing to pay him to do this, then it ain't my problem if I don't like that, there's an uncountable number of other musicians, past and present, who have made music chasing other goals. Personally this was the first I'd heard of Collier and he's not doing much for me. I'm not at a point in my life where I wanna hear cold crystalline overdubs of one white dude's voice. But whatever.
