First IDM Song

I decided to check out u-ziq so I got Lunatic Harness. I
realised I heard the some Mushroom Compost quite a while
ago, long before I knew what IDM was. I flipped and grinned
as I heard it again.

So my first IDM Song was u-zig - Mushroom Compost.

Post yours

IDM is called lapdance by you. Your campaign for nomenclatic
reasessment will fail

I guess that would be the one then. The beauty of being
numb.

don't remember. something by mister aphex the twin, but
which one....

(i thought this topic would be about the first idm track in
history, not about the first one you heard)

fucking loved the remix. didn't even know it was autechre
(or autechre) until a few years ago.

not as glitchy as most idm.

Wipeout XL soundtrack. That game was my introduction to
FSOL, Photek, and others. Best song in the game was done
in-house(Cold Storage). Picked up Lifeforms after playing
that game. And that's when the journey started.

actually, the first IDM track i ever heard (although i
didn't know what it was / who it was at the time) was The
Garden Of Linmiri - which was featured in the Pirelli
Advert.

It must have been around about 1994 or maybe even earlier
that I saw that ad, and I always loved the music in it...i
always thought that it was specifically created for that
advert. how naive of me! i was only about 11 or so

Mine was Windowlicker, and I wasn't very impressed. Cornish
Acid was next, and it knocked me out and I still consider it
a fucking masterpiece to this day.

I eventually came to love Windowlicker...

first song would probably be 54 cymru beats. a friend of
mine had just gotten drukqs and we were on a burnride and he
put it on maybe 15 minutes into the ride. what a mindfuck

makes a track idm

I believe the first time the word "intelligent" was used in
an electronic music context would be the Warp compilation
"Artificial Intelligence" that came out in the early
nineties, it's the first time I remember hearing any music
quite like that.

Also remember that Aphex Twin was about 14 when he made
Ambient works 1 so maybe they could have been some of the
first.

Personally I look to early Tangerine Dream as being one of
the main influences to this sort of music although they
couldn't really be described as "dance".
