My question is that why some people need music like "IDM". The people i know think that the music i listen to is noise and dosent make sense. So why do we need this complex electronic music when some people are completely satisfied with Britney and Black Eyed Peas? So why do we like this noise?
its quite hard to anwser to these questions.
But lets ask, Why do you listen to "IDM"?

But seriously, it's because of our superior intelligence or something. We know what good music is, not like those mindless sheep.

im a sound freak, I LOVE what synths can do, and I get tired of hearing the same distorted guitars and drum sounds very easily, and I'm not too into vocals/lyrics for the most part either. Obviously, there are some great vocal tracks out there, but for most people vocals/lyrics become the focus of the song and I don't like that. I like to let the music to do the talking. Also "IDM" is trippy as fuck and I like to zone out when listening to music. It's kinda hard to zone out to Korn.

again, a good point. In my opinion is that people who want something much more out of music than just a pretty ass singing to some non sence lyrics and want complex melodic and rythmical constructions listen to what we listen.
For example i played some Chris Clark to a friend and he said that is there something wrong with the cd?
And the time that i've listened to idm, its has expanded the range of music i listen to. I even listen to some classical music these days.

I listen to IDM because I desperately feel the need to escape from reality and into a world of pure abstract sound architecture.
Even with all the money I spend on albums and sound gear, it's still cheaper than drugs, and autechre can't be detected in urine tests. Yet.

'Cause most other music doesn't hit the mark. Most emotional, most funkiest, most wild, most amount of options, most variation. Do I need to go on?

But personally i think that Satanstornade is bad weird, but that is just my opinion.
I've listened to some, but i cant find any musical element in noise. I understand minimal techno with small blip and blops be cause there can be melody and rythm. But noise is something that i cant get a grab of, but i dont know if i really want to.

I don't car about style, i care about wether it gives me a feeling. That is music as far as i am concerned.
When can we drop the term "IDM" it really annoys me!
