- Symphonic Techno
Symphonic Techno represents the integrated, non-genre, and progressive Instrumental
Electronic music that interfuses the different elements of electronicdance music such asTechno , Ambient,Drum’n’Bass ,Progressive rock , Neo-classical music using the classicalorchestration techniques.This term was originally devised, proposed, and defined by a Japanese composer
AQi Fzono in order for him to describe the new genre that came into existence referring to the highly original hybrid sound of his 5th album “Cosmology (album) ” (original edition released in1998 ). In this album Fzono used various new and oldsynthesizers , samplers, keyboards (includingpipe organs ,harpsichords ), andTheremin , and portrayed the theme “transcend time and space”. Thesymphonic poem -like suite style that can be heard in some of theProgressive rock (especiallySymphonic rock ) albums was utilized from sheer necessity, but it actually gave birth to this revolutionary methodology. Even though “Techno music withsymphonic arrangement” had existed in the past, “Cosmology” byAQi Fzono is thought to be the first of its kind that created a totalsymphonic poem by adopting thesuite -like style and associating all the songs organically.In a broad sense, Symphonic Techno can be interpreted as the music that “combines
Symphonic rock andTechno ”, but according toFzono who created this term and the genre, it is “hotchpotch ofTechno ” that combines together and “synthesizers ” many different musical elements using theelectronic musical instruments likesynthesizer . This methodology can be found in the last installment ofSymphobient Trilogy “Cathedral” byAQi Fzono released in1995 .There have not been many followers of this style as of yet, probably because it requires advanced compositional technique, but this genre does possess infinite possibility of expansion. This term is also thought to have an aesthetic cross relationship with “
Sci-fi Music ”, a musical conceptAQi Fzono devised and proposed around the same time.Albums said to have Symphonic Techno style
