I would disagree. Experimentation does not exist. You state, "so if I sit
down to make a track, if I do not start out with a concrete idea but instead
figure it out as i go, then this is "experimental" no matter how straight
ahead the resulting track is". There is no possible way to start something
without having any idea of it before hand. Simply being conscious of your
actions is enough information to disqualify your argument. To truly
"experiment", in techno for example, you would have to step outside of the
structure or language of "techno"; meaning "create" something "new" in
techno. It is not possible to do this because of the limitations of
language or structure of "techno" (or what ever you are referring to). You
can only "assemble" never "experiment". Looking forward to any comments.

If it involves experimentation it is experimental - so if I sit down to
make a track, if I do not start out with a concrete idea but instead
figure it out as i go, then this is "experimental" no matter how straight
ahead the resulting track is.
