"What artists have succeeded at making futuristic (sounding) music?"
Just saw someone mentioning how Jay tried to push the envelope on BP3 and failed...and even though it doesn't count, we all heard "Ghetto techno" and how it sucked. Jay and Dre "Under pressure" was trying in the same way.
It seems like there was a WHOLE lot of this going on around 99-2000 since it was the new Millennium, and people always pictured the year 2000 is being extremely spacey and robotic, probably because of the movies and books we read in the 70's and 80's. The biggest fail from this era has to be Goodie Mob, with tracks like "What it ain't" with TLC.
I'd say that Outkast succeeded on Stankonia, but some folks would still call it hit and miss. I actually thought "Call before I come" was great, but some folks here seemed to hate it.
