Well, here in Sweden at least. Not very commercial, but you hear it here and there, esp. in the commerical-breaks on tv. There's a channel in Sweden Tv 3, and when the commercial break comes you hear a jungle-break-tune, and there's also a commercial for, ehm, what is it called, cooking tools? (kastruller och sånt) and you hear a somehow IDM:ish tune, with Vespertine-sounding drums, and in Cartoon Network and such you often hear dn'b-breaks during the commercials.
Yes.

On dutch television you also hear cool idm-ish sounds all the time.

Well, I'd say this is a good thing. It prooves that IDM's not crap-music, and that other people like this kind of music. A friend of mine called my music-taste dårhusmusik (hm, lunatic-assylum-music), and this might prove him wrong.

I haven't seen anything like that on TV?! They are usually using d&b jingles in commercials and trailers... but even then - d&b is already commercial and has next to nothing to do with what I define 'electronic music'.

Loads of TV series trailers in the UK use IDM- even big well known programs, not obscure late night ones:
BoC, AT, N.O.W. are all ones I've heard...

Yes i like it too! Perhaps it will interest more people in this beautiful music :-)
And on a more selfish note: it's also just nicer to hear some good music during commercials, rather than some boring muzak :-p

I heard an IDM beat during an anti-drug commercial, from the same campaign as the aphex anti-drug commercial, Then I heard it in an ad for Xerox, then today on the news during the lotto numbers.
I cant fgure out who its from and its driving me nuts!!!!! Anyone know the tune im talking about?
Would anyone like to take a shot at identifying this track, if you identify it correctly you'll always have a place in my heart.

I did like the use of Aphex tracks on Film Four... they were advertising 'Casino' and showing clips of Joe Pesci. They'd play some 'Avril 14th' and it would say "Nice Joe" and then 'Cock Ver 10' (the loud bit at the end) would come blasting in and it'd say "BAD Joe" :D

first, I dont consider jungle / DnB IDM.
second, I dont consider the IDM audience a group of people that can easily be seduced by marketing
third, how many 'ordinary top 40 listening' people do you think can listen a decent afx or ae track from the beginning to the end without getting insane in the head or bored?
I dont worry :)

i think they use electronic stuff cause it is more easy (and cheaper) to do (one person making it) then having to record guitars drums etc... for rock music. and it's just so hip ;)

the tunes are used on all these adverts, but theres no fear of the artists becoming mainstream.. only people who previously knew the songs will know who they're by its not like theres any credits saying music composed by... most people probably think they were just made for the adverts... perahps thats why the advertisers like using them so much- if u used 4example a madonna song, peoples first reaction would be ooo its maddonna, not oo thats a nice tune, i must buy X product...
rambling now..... and another example -- sabres of paradise on the vodafone ad

"most people probably think they were just made for the adverts..."
Well actually, if people here a nice song during a commercial, lots of them try to find out who wrote it. (For instance there is this dutch site, that lists the origin of lots of tunes used in recent commercials.
It's a great way for a song to be heard by lots of people.
But (here we go again), why are so many people afraid of idm becoming more commercial?? It doesn't change the music whether only we listen to an artist, or millions of people all over the world....

Never going to happen, people always say that its going to be the next big thing. People have been saying this since 1992.....
I think its going to be one of those things that will always stay underground to some extent
Who knows though, Ive seen stranger things happen

How do you mean the next big thing anyway? You mean Aphex Twin signing up with EMI alone? I don’t think that would happen. What does happen is people acquire ideas and implement it into something not so challenging, your standard chart type sound. Maybe a genre will spring from it. Compare House to HardHouse for example. Or also compare ‘Windowlicker’ to ‘Music’ by Madonna like the beats and cuts. A basic form of acquired inspiration.

Aphex SAW I used to be played continuously on Gary Rhodes cooking program.... i suspect because of its 'stylised dsign' type qualities (and also because it sounds cool and modern)
Just watch any gardening/cookery/DIY type program on telly and you'll hear some pretty cool stuff :)
I think: the more the merrier! people should apprecieate this, the musci industry (well, the pop industry) has tried to move into the DnB, IDM lately, but I bet it'll get bored once its raped the scene and move onto something else... like country.... or bangra... actually, bangra is everywhere nowadays ;))

By "next big thing" I mean, hering IDM tunes on top 40 stations regularly and seeing music videos for them all over the place and seeing "IDM" merchandise and what not, thats what I meant, yea. I wasnt really talking directly at you anus, NICE TO SEE YOU BACK HERE THOUGH! Where you been at? seemed like you been gone for a while. Windowlicker is NOTHING like that music madonna track, nothing like it at all, wow , but I totally agree, people will get influenced by the "IDM" genra and try and encorperate it into main stream music
I really dont know how I feel about that though, I guess it could be considered as a good thing, and perhaps open up people to listen to more experimental music, but I dont know
Experimental music i think is something that can never be marketed and commercialized. Thats why they call it experimental, experimenting with new things and broadening peoples vision of what music is, in very abstract ways

hahah hering
its getting hot in herre.... w00t! now take off all your clothes....
I think electronic music is the future tough, I think maybe 100 years from now everything is going to be made digitally and really great things are going to happen with technology in the digital audio aspect. It'll be neat to see what happens
Crusify me if you must, but sometimes I really like those commercial tunes, especially the Cartoon Network interludes in toonami, whoever makes those tunes does a great job IMO. I hate the way sports stations use it though, like the amen break 24/7 for action shots of a recorded game, with cheesy bass lines... ack
