Autechre, Aphex Twin, BoC, any of the great labels like warp, schematic, merk, skam, ect ect... It's quite strange; after being surrounded by people (my friends, this message board) that listen to and dig this type of music, you aren't really aware that the great majority of music fans aren't even remotly aware of this scene. It's odd because it becomes your entire life; an autechre release is something you can't stop thinking about and excepect everyone else you speak with to feel the same, but the rest of the world is completely unaware. That's the beauty of it really, the feeling that it doesn't matter. The creativity is directly related to the fact that we are ignored. |

earthleakage: I assume your "who" is about the "we" in my last sentence. I suppose i ment the music makers and such... |

|
|
Ehh, there are bigger and better musicians out there than Autechre. |
||||||||
|

it doesn't really bother me, it just makes me more special :) KNOWLEDGE IS POWER |

I was talking to some friends at work and they said no-one buys vinyl anymore. I asked them if they knew about warp or autechre or any of them. Nah..never heard of em. You mention electronic music and they start talking about how Scooter's cover versions suck. -P |
||||||||

|
|
yea, theres this dude that goes to my school that LOVES electronic music, i asked him if he had ever heard of warp, and well, he hasn't. is into like prodigy, chemical brothers, and euro trance club stuff. |

|
|
boreds of canada i will agree with. heheheh |

i was once into real trance stuff like, paul van dyke untill gatecrasher and ministry came and fked it up and made it all comercial. so from then on ive truned away from that music, and never looked at another dance billchart again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just hope warp and all the other lables dont do the same. if they every do i would have to stabb my eardrums with cuetips, so that i can live peacfully in silence |
||||||||

|
|
aye, thats my point. as "idm" becomes more and more mainstream it will become more "produced," thus straying further from its roots which is more of an idea then actually creating a genre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how.... interesting |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"IDM" isn't going to go mainstream. don't worry. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, ok, most of the "IDM" people here couldnt name at least 3 straight TECHNO / HOUSE or TRANCE labels...... |
