All we need is a Nevermind type album to hit, and IDM would be the next big thing!! But, seeing what happened to grunge, maybe it's best for it to stay underground...

but, here's another idea, would music like Aphex Twin, Autechre, Boc, etc, ever have a chance of breaking through to become popular? I mean, no matter how friendly it might be, there is no words... I sent a friend of mine a couple tracks by Aphex Twin, and BoC, and that's what he said... "It's ok, but I like words" or something like that... the best music isn't restricted to one idea with words and lyrics, but I guess most people don't understand this... maybe most people like to be told what a song is about...

Music is a type of art and like other kinds of art there are many different ways to create it. Such as with paintings or other visual media it's possible to create something abstract and up to interpretation by the viewer, or to create something fantastical using elements which are easily recognizable to the viewer, or anywhere in between and beyond. The same is true for music - it is possible to create something that is open for interpretation by the listener, and it is possible to create something the more specifically directs the listener toward a particular idea or emotion. The former is common in 'IDM' and the latter is common in 'pop' music. They both have their places and usefulness. Only with instrumental music can you create an atmosphere where the listeners imagination is free to run wild, and only with music containing lyrics can you create a story of a man who is attacked by mutant garbage cans and befriends a small deformed cat named Spilmf #9 only to become wrapped up in the assassanation of president Andrew Johnson.

why do you want it to be the next big thing? trust me it happened to Industrial right under my nose...and it's an eye gougingly painful experience....
btw...I think Geogaddi was packeaged and designed as the Nevermind of IDM...with Q magazine raving how much better it was than Drukqs (a-holes)...but I dont think it quite took the world by a storm like Nevermind did

Geogaddi IS better then Drukqs... and I don't think it was packaged... it's more friendly to the ear then drukqs, but why does that mean it's "packaged" to be popular? That's what BoC wanted to make...
and I also said in my first message that maybe it's best it doesn't happen with IDM, and that it stays underground...

heh, well we all know your dislike for Boards of Canada... I for one love both BoC, and Aphex Twin, and after longs months of listening to both albums I for one can comfortably say that Geogaddi is my favorite of the two by far... although I do love Drukqs...
but, to me saying a piece of music is packaged almost seems like saying it was written with reaching a big audience, and being "pop" in mind... I don't think that was the case with Geogaddi... but, as far as promotion is concerned, you're probably right... but really, once the music is completed, what's wrong with some good promotion to try and get the music out there... I can admit that Boards of Canada's music is "easier" then Drukqs, and so Warp would obviously market Geogaddi more then Drukqs, as there would be more chance to reach more people...
