Crazy idea... Techno by an orchestra

[damienbfree]

I have been listening to a lot of music lately that is comprised of elements not traditionally found together, and it's given me an idea, something I really want to hear...
An orchestra playing techno music. Instead of synthesizing naturally instrumental sounRAB, we have to instrumentally make naturally digital sounRAB. A full orchestra, with strings, horns, and some serious percussionists, could do an amazing job of it.
If nobody does this in the next 6 months and it's still in my head, I might try making a sample on garageband over winter break.

I've heard of a few techno artists mix in a real orchestra.

I also really like the soundtrack to Total Recall which features electronic music mixed in with a full orchestra.

there are definitely similarities between classical and trance. Would be fucking cool to see.
