ok, so i went down to a huge HMV (music store) downtown today, and, of course, went strait to the "dance" (shudder) section of the store (an entire floor) to see what "IDM" they had...
[dont worry, this story DOES get interesting]
i then went over to "Electronica/Acid Jazz"...
...and guess what they labeled Aphex Twin, Autechre and Squarepusher as?
...."MUTILATED BEATS"
thats what it said in brackets below the artists names..... (NOT "idm")
..cool eh? ive never heard them described as that before...

Mutilated Beats!!!!!!
BWAAAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh my god, that is classic! I'd piss myself right there in the store.
In this shit town, the Aphex Twin albums are in the rock/pop section. And forget about finding any other type of IDM... not even Geogaddi.

I hate looking in the dance section for IDM... first of all, I HATE dancing, and I can't dance to this anyway. This is the type of music I sit down and concentrate on, just law in bed listening to Autechre or some SAW2... to be stuck in the fucking DANCE section is just lame.

i saw a portishead cd in the store yesterday labeled as "heavy metal"
a computer error? stupid employee? or is the 'glorytimes' ep truely that distinct a departure from their normal style?

all the songs are more diferent on ICBYD the RDJ album just seems overly produced and too repetitive to me imho.

i find I Care Because You Do to be MUCH more repetative than the RDJ album...
and the songs on it all sound much more similar to each other than the RDJ album too
the production on RDJ is much better IMO i dont find it over-produced... its just better the sounds on it are way more varied and interesting than ICBYD...
...IMHO
