dimensions of space in music

a lot of (especially older) idm to me sounds to me like
it's composed of layers with lots of distance/space/breadth
between them -- does anyone else experience this? i don't
know any music theory so i can only describe it
metaphorically. in rock etc. layers bleed into one another
much more --

i think this is why so much idm sounds very solitary, and
also part of the reason why this genre sees so many
collaborative projects (duos, remixes) -- it's very easy to
carve out a new space (aural region, whatever -- any
relation to tones? maybe?) within a pre-existing track.

thoughts on this?

Two words:

Autechre. Amber.

End of discussion.
