Analog carries the trace of a hand; digital carries the precision of a system. It is usually the first thing a viewer clocks about how something was made. Future Funk leans digital, Psychedelic stays closer to analog.
Structure signals a system was designed; chaos signals something was let loose. This axis is usually read as competence versus energy. Psychedelic leans chaotic, Future Funk stays closer to structured.
Organic feels grown; geometric feels drawn. It is the difference between a form that occurred and one that was decided. Future Funk leans geometric, Psychedelic stays closer to organic.
Both sit on the same side of the restraint question. The gap is how much breathing room each one insists on. Psychedelic leans maximal, Future Funk stays closer to minimal.
