This is a masterpiece, not just music that is made for a quick listen. It transports me to another universe. I imagine this is how people felt when going to a Wagner concert back then.
Where classical composers found their limits and struggled to evolve the music further, electronic music came and sent it to unknown new realms. This is high art.
They actually "never found their limits" and they themselves were the first to actually make electronic music. Hear Milton Babitt, for example: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-W5n1pZn4izI.html and Xenakis: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JvZyvs2OEbs.html . The very thing you are contemplating is very mundane in comparison to what the "classical composers" did with "electronic music" since the 19th century.
I dont think they struggled to take it further. They took it where it was going in their lifetime and then died. No doubt they would have made plenty more music if they lived longer. Most famous classical musicians were revolutionary for their time and we're making relatively "advanced" music. Standing on the shoulders of giants and all that. If Mozart or Strauss were lucky enough to own a synthesiser many of today's electronic musicians would be humbled.
Yeah Former might be on this. But guess why this by far his best track? Because of Noisia. When Former does it it's just random sounds with weird twisted vocals. When Vision bois joins the club it becomes emotional art anthem.
the most beautful thing i listened in 2017, seriously thank you for existing, you always will be my favourite producers , you have your place in my heart
+Sagai they use lots of different effects on diffrent vocals, dm me and i might be able to help you, its too much content to talk about in the youtube comment section
The machine is always watching. The machine knows you by name. The machine knows you by your code. The machine stores your code forever. You are part of the machine. You are the code. Run the code.
Well here's an interview published by UKF in which Nik states: "The track I made with Former wasn’t actually directly inspired or triggered by Blade Runner 2049 at all. If anything it was Ghost In The Shell. I’d re-watched the anime and saw that movie and I was working on these chord sequences which became the start of this track. It fits his way of putting emotion in music. I sent it to him and said ‘hey dude, I made this and thought of you, wanna collab?"

This is abstract sonic art posing as music. A painting, a big one. Music needs an emotional conection and that piece gave me a cold vibe like being trapped in deep space. Just because it's sound doesn't necessarily make it music, but maybe closer to art than most music.
Sorry but Former is a freaking genius with his ability to make believable vocals that sound realistically robotic. Noisia are geniuses with their production quality and genre defiance.
Whoooooa the voice is so chilling and actually adds a lot to the piece. In my opinion a lot of hard-hitting EDM would do better without the vocals; this song does them excellently.
Depends on which direction you want to go, try "Ivy Lab - Amber" or "Ivy Lab - Eyes Down". If you'd rather go the other direction, then possibly "G Jones - In Your Head (RL Grime Edit)". Two possible completely different directions. Although, artists under Noisia's Vision label (including Noisia and Former) have similar music too
I dunno if my brain is just making up words but it sounds like the main vocals in all this are saying cut-off sentences of "Pleasure Model; whoever you are, don't forget me."
