True IDM Life is only limited by your willingness to suck
(laziness). IDM power is in your hands; wielding it for the
greater good is a choice.

Man, the day I saw a guy looking through some vinyl(s)
drinking a craft beer, I knew not only was it dead, but
having its corpse bummed.

As a genre, where can it go? For me IDM was the nineties.
Honest work and music, unlike all the clones we have had
since.

Back when mhtrtc, tri rep, icbyd were in the same genre it
was a genre. If you think campfire headphase and confield
were the same genre then so is skilled and nine inch nails.

Human memory has 'survivor bias', hence the rose-tinted
"good ol' days" and why I will always cherish the so called
IDM genre even though I am sure there was a lot of crap!
This was part of the soundtrack to my life as it was yours.

To some extent I am jealous of our children as they will
happen across the real gems from this genre and not have to
shift through the dross like we did... much like I did with
my dad's 70's LPs as a child.

Maybe RIP is in order, but like all funerals, to have grief
there must be something to lose in the first place. My heart
is full of love for this invented genre and some absolutely
fantastic music, but now I enjoy new and old favourites.

Let's have a wake, get drunk, remember the good times and
tell all the stories to the kids.
