there has been alot of people talking about how IDM is a shit name (i agree)...
...and i was reading a review of Boards of Canada online, and the guy called them "Electronic Drug Music"
i thought that was pretty fucking funny. It kind of works... i mean for several reasons:
1. People who hear it for the first time assume that anyone who listens to it, has to be on drugs.
2. While listening to it, it can feel like you are on drugs...even if you arnt
3. If you are on drugs... it sounds FUCKING AWESOME.
so yeah
EDM... electronic drug music!

i like electronic drug music. but i also quite like 'electronica', because it's just a general term,
unlike the stupid terms 'IDM' and 'braindance', both of which imho suck eggs.

Trying to categorize music always frustrates me, so I just say "electronica" if I have to say anything.

"2. While listening to it, it can feel like you are on drugs...even if you arnt"
One time when I was in a record store with a friend, they were playing "Geogaddi" in the store and he said it made him feel like he was high and he didn't even know who it was [he doesn't know much about IDM]..
I still like EEM

give it up..
okay you might get about a dozen people here to agree... then try and plonk EDM in your search fields and see what comes up...NADA
just accept it..we are stuck with IDM...there's thousands of online resources available for it...
btw..all the IDM gets filed under Downbeat down here

we could call it IDM: Intelligent Drug Music
but anything with "dance" in it is complete and utter bullshit as Aphex Twin should not be described as a mere dance-musician..

I agree that DANCE does not belong in any electronic acronym... but DRUG? That's even worse!
IDM is here to stay... and it's too bad, it's completely moronic...
