What the hell, Ive gotz lots dumb Techno 4/4 140 BPM Loop Techno records, and I really like em', its nothing to be ashamed of......I say ONE LOVE, but not to teh TRANCE fans, hehehehe

I like the term IDM, because I don't like to associate Aphex etc. with other techno music. When I tell people I listen to electronica they say "oh you mean like techno music", and really, its a completely different thing. Regardless of whether or not one is more "intelligent" than the other; it is clearly a different catagory of music. When I tell people I listen to IDM they have no idea what I'm talking about, and that's how it should be, because most of them have never heard any of it.
It is also pretty clear that although they are both Techno, what most of us here consider IDM usually appeals to tastes more sophisticated in electronic music. Hence, it is pretty easy to get into the groove of crap club dance music, but it takes a little more listening and experience to really get into aphex and other "IDM"

dance is "dumb" coz it repeats, its piss easy to listen to and is (comparatively and generally) simple and cliched to make.
this doesnt necesarily (sp?) mena its bad, however.
BTW this is how I see it, anyway

"Fuck trance...that;s bullshit"...what an ignorant cock you must be :-(
The guy mentioned 4/4 beats so you go ahead and jump the gun, generalising everything that happens to contain a 4.4 beat as "trance" bollocks..dig a little beneath the suger coated vacuos, sanitised pop gloss versions of 4.4 dance and you will be pleased to find an as yet undiscovered world of artistically valid and quite enlightening music forms:-p
Examples of "4.4 trance bollocks you might like---jeff mills, dave clarke, carl craig, plastikman, regis, surgeon, dj hell, international deejay gigolos, ian pooley, lucien foort, secret cinema, dj skull, robert hood, UR, red planet, drexciya, ,masters at work, felix da housecat, aphrohead, dj sneak, green velvet, boo williams, dj rush, dj funk, orlando voorn, marshall jeferson, thomas chrome, sven vath, laurent garnier, derrick may,.....etcetcetcetc\\\\\\

Why is techno music dumb? Because of its simplicity and minimalism? Oh well in that case you can discard alot of the new aphex album for being "dumbass" also :-p.....and what's so novel about dancing ?...I personally find it pretty fucking enjoyable actually:-p

So you only listen to IDM cuz it isnt so easy to get into to, and DANCE music is in generally dumb ? Isnt that a lil bit contradicting ? I mean stuff like the BEATLES anddd (those bands that play real instruments) Beethoven are also very easy to listen to ? So does that mean their stuff is dumb or not complex enuff, and therfor bAD ?

Here's the point:
I say, hey (random person), I like techno music. Could you play me some techno music you think I would like?
He will play me some crap which I will hate. So it doesn't quite define it does it?

well, if the length of time to get into a type of electronic music differentiates it as either IDM, or dumb ass dance music, well here's an interesting thing... I bought In Sides by Orbital back in April or so (my first pure electronic album) and I'm just now starting to really get into it... I bought I Care Because You Do, and the RDJ album, and in a week I thought they were the 2nd best thing ever (sliced bread still gets my #1 vote)... Now, I'm not saying Orbital is easy music to get into, just that it's closer to "dumb" dance music then Aphex Twin, and say Autechre... but anyways, the reason pure dance music gets a bad rap, is because most of it probably is slapped together to make money... like someone said, you get a beat, loop it, and stick in a catchy melody... I'm not saying it all is, cause there is plenty of dance music I like, but most of it probably is...

Joey, nice one..and Funkmaster, if I remember correctly Orbital back in the day were actually labelled a part of the rave culture here in the UK, the Brown album is very representative of that time in sound..another sidenote, Universal Indicator was made in response to the said artists I stated above....so no Pimplife or whoever was just emphasising his general ignorance b4...you can eat MY Balls:-p

kaiser salsek by goldie has some fucken ace drums.
that is for goldie who you know, is a bit of a cheese master- i am quite impressed.
i think the best way to equate intelligence or the level of intelligence to dance music is to apply rich's explanation of brain dance. it is music if were to dance to would make you look like you were having a seizure or so - so you don't instead have to 'process' let it out in your head. And so - the more you have to like use your head the more intelligent.
regular bd oh bd oh bd oh @ 140/120bpm isn't all that hard to like process let alone dance too - just a shame it is so boring and uninspiring.

to druggiebowzer um..I know yer hearts in the right place but your post is somewhat misleading...
most of the artists you have mentioned below and especially jeff mills, carl craig, dj hell, dj skull, surgeon, plastickman, drexicya, laurent garnier (his last album is IDM in my book..awesome stuff) are all the finest examples of techno/detroit techno/ borderline house...but not trance..but I agree with you that a lot of intelligence crept into the techno scene while people weren't looking, Cristian Vogel, Neil Landstrumm, Tobias Schmidt etc all have their roots in techno but their later stuff can stand in their own right as far as intelligence and creativity as in comparison to any IDM, infact in some cases it's even more commendable that at the bottom of all the wirggly, knob twidly weirdness they throw into their stuff..there's still a solid 4/4 backbone albiet stretched to the limits of recognition...
Examples of "4.4 trance bollocks you might like---jeff mills, dave clarke, carl craig, plastikman, regis, surgeon, dj hell, international deejay gigolos, ian pooley, lucien foort, secret cinema, dj skull, robert hood, UR, red planet, drexciya, ,masters at work, felix da housecat, aphrohead, dj sneak, green velvet, boo williams, dj rush, dj funk, orlando voorn, marshall jeferson, thomas chrome, sven vath, laurent garnier, derrick may,.....

Oh..Im sorry..were you refering to "a bundle of sticks" the original meaning of the word? or maybe you meant...cigarrettes??
trance may not be the most complex or original type of modern "techno"..but at one time..it was cutting edge....remember that..the next time you are getting a penis shoved up your dialated asshole... :)
