...like it is on watmm.com. they're probably the idm artists people talk the most about.
but do you agree with this?
i don't know a lot of idm artists, but i think plaid would deserve a place here (instead of boc maybe). and maybe vsnares, too.

i don't think plaid deserves it more than boc, but if you read.. umm... there's something there explaining it. it's going to start involving more and more artists, untill it gets to be basically a reference for all electronic music. i might be wrong, you could ask joyrex though.

I might put Mu-Ziq somewhere in there. I think they're the five foremost IDMers.
Venetian Snares DEFINITELY doesn't belong there. He's good, but the rest are just on another level.

Titsworth is one of those guys who think I am some puppet for WARP or they fund the site; I assure you that is not the case. I wish it were true, would make getting info/funding a lot easier!
That was the very reason I chose the initial four artists for watmm, was because of their popularity - no reason to cover artists the majority of people don't care about, and soon Luke Vibert will be added to watmm, as his output is phenominal (IMO), and more will follow. Some other considerations are:
Richard Devine Jega Mike Paradinas (and all his aliases)
watmm has covered non WARP (and will continue to) artists before in the news, and we will devote space to artists who may not need an entire subsite, but deserve mentioning anyway, as the goal of watmm is to expose you to good electronic music you might otherwise not have heard.

joyrex: ?????????????????????? i was referring to people's "top 4" opinion, this has nothing to do with you or your site. i read your messages, you've said countless times that more artists will be covered on WATMM eventually. there are lots of people who think the best idm is on warp and that's what i'm talking about. you should follow mary j. blige's advice: "no more drama!"

Sorry Tits, the gang over at the Planet-µ board think watmm is some subsite run by WARP or something...kinda pisses me off, and your coincidental comment caught me off gaurd (this was prior to us resolving the 'other' thread about me being back.
LOL...Indeed, no more drama! :)
