the silliness?
methinks it's a combination of the actual melodic line and the timbre used.
the silliness archetype for me is
square waves+no filter+ quick attack+straight 8th notes. no?
think of those alphaville hit singles. i can't really pin it down...
specific song examples:
SILLY
IO.
perlence.
chenc9
NOT SILLY, GREAT
rae / lp5
dropp / ep
untilted, except ipacial section, fermium (silly, pulls it off)
++AROVANE ( artist)
++BOLA (artist)
RATHER SILLY, BUT PULLS IT OFF NICELY or even GREATLY
777 lp5
Eidetic Casein
++APHEX TWIN (artist)
++PLAID (artist)
