of all the music that you purchase, what % of it is idm?

me: about 95%.

25%

personall i dont think there is much worth bothering with
besides the main ones like autechre, aphex twin, boc,
squarepusher...

there are a few others besides them but i dont find nearly
enough good idm artists compared to good artists in other
genres.

well...seeing as I buy CD-R's to burn IDM, and the last 2
albums I bought were IDM, I think I'd have to say 100%...

maybe like 35-40%, this has nothing to do with idm, but i
generally prefer electronic/music without words/idm over
music with vocals for multi-listening purposes, i find
people also can enjoy listening to music w/out words if you
show them it, cuz voices can sometimes break music for
people, but i do greatly love a lot of vocal work too, i
just prefer the open-ended images you can get from
vocal-less work

none... no internet dork music, to me, is worth my precious
dollars. Spookyluke burns me all of the dork music that I
want--which is really just a bit of Aphex. ;)

75%, to me, shows a rreal love of IDM, because that means
that the other 25% is dedicated to all the otherr hunderreds
of differrent styles out therre, in theorry, coz of cause no
one like ALL the styles of music.

CPU- 8 gigs of IDM vs 60 gigs of rock/non IDM
