deleuze and guattari were two french physicians.
they found that the heavy rhythms present in rock
music stimulate the pineal gland, promoting
anti-intellectualism and hooliganism.

thus, they encouraged everyone to listen to
'smooth' music, which has been scientifically
proven to increase intelligence.

lately it means that we should disapprove ov tekno.
or, it gives an excuse to do so.
