electronic music
I am looking for new classical music that uses mostly or only electronic instruments. But not slow stuff -- Eno, Luther Adams, etc. -- but with more energy. Electronic instruments offer possibilities that objects (classical instruments) don’t and I would like to listen to something that makes musical sense, not just thumping DJ electronic stuff. Any recommendations? many thanks in advance.

I dont like electronica much...😁 This composer sound marvellous and poetic on my low cost system... 😋 His 12 albums are good... Green is the most celebrated... my favorite... He is revered in Japan... A kind of zen quality...Minimalist powerfully natural and meditative quality. And the first piece of "green" called "creek" capture a freshness of water and mint together...And for me is perceived as green color... All the other pieces litterally spoke to my mind... i like him ...😊 He is a poet who use electronica not a sound fetichist playing with meaningless sounds we will listen one time , but a true musician we will want to go back ...He wrote with the innocence of a child...A feat hard to beat... If i analyse why i love this album so much even if i dont like much electronica usually it is because music can be heard for sure but for me i see music as dynamics and forms as a movie. But with this composer we can touch and taste music too ... This music induce Cenesthesia and reinforce it ... This is another hard feat and task for a composer... poets do the same when they are great.
in the "green" song we perceive the green color as a walking animal... It is stunningly beautiful... Then to color he add motion... Inspired genius as simple as a child indeed ...
In the piece "feet" we felt how much funny and sad or solitary at the same time our feet can be without shoes... Our feet indeed are living animal too ...
