"Idioteque" can be seen in two ways: A blatantly
stupid attempt at making a cheesy dance song (hence the name), or genius. What "Idioteque"
essentially is, is a dance song, beats, and all. This, of all the songs on the album,
is the experimental one that stands out as much as "Electioneering" did
on OKC. It will either be your favorite song, or your most hated. However, it can't
be ignored.
The song samples a bit from Paul
Lansky's 1975 computer-made song
"Mild Und Leise." For

RH experience, check out his website. |
