no. IDM is a hobby. A name made by journalists followed by idiots. |
||||||||
|

i tend to disagree. it initially spawned as a mailing list devoted to the discussion of aphex twin and artificial intelligence era warp releases, then quickly grew into an acronym to describe a wide variety of abstract electronic music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um.. um.. i.. um.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
abstract how? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha. i guess the readers got much wiser after reading that.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
abstract in a way that doesn't follow normal convention. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
word however its hard for me not to use the term... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oyvinto, we're not aiming to make our readers wiser, we're just throwing out some of the main ideas behind the acronym. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you wrote that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
8 ) you're lovely |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'normal' what do you mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oyvinto, i did not write the article, check the intro. it was written by Stefan Koopmanschap at |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
were you making fun of the article or do you agree? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jivverdicker, normal as in what you hear when you turn on your radio. let me know if you have any other comments. |
||||||||

is easier to repLy to a singLe message by cLicking the number that at the message's header... ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
... number that appears at the ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i certainly agree that there are several definitions. if you actually read the full article (and i doubt that you did), you'll learn that there's an infinite amount of possible definitions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who are you saying didn't read the article and why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh man even the bat computer cant find a good enough name for idm !. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you asked if i wrote the article. if you read the article sub-heading you'd see it wasn't me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that article was kind of pointless. navel-gazing if you will. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that crappy article has wikipedia as a back up for that rubbish. Squarepusher, Aphex, Ae, the books, khonnor, snaresy etc try their best to express theirselves. Why do you feel he need to pigeon hole them together? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the article is not an attempt to pigeon hole any particular artists (notice there's no mention of any one particular artist), instead it attempts to gave a basic overview of the so-called genre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wouldn't really take it so seriously, the article was not meant to give a true definition, but to question the possible definitions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As you say it wasn't meant to give a true definition and it doesn't. What questions has it posed to you and the 'normal' listener? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it has posed the question of what the true definition is by reflecting on the many possible answers that revolve around the term. do you have anything else, jivverdick? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I found it to be a nice reading... didnt really discover anything new to me... bu it was nice... I dont know... I just dont expect to much from any article... its more of an intro to a wider discussion... like the one we have here now... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nacmat, i think you nailed it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry, I'm just having fun before I got to sleep. you did say definition but it's shit. sleep tight pietro you lying bullshit talking idiot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
definition, with a question mark. good night. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jivverdick, i'm not sure how serious you are, or if you just enjoy typing away in an attempt to dismantle this topic, but perhaps you'll have better luck tomorrow. cheers, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in summary... the articLe says: i don't know what the fuck is IDM, so i'LL give pointLess facts and never reach a concLusion and that's that! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
rasec, it's simply an open discussion. if it has wasted your time, move on to the next topic. it's easy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it hasn't wasted my time at aLL, i found it (as nacmat says) an introduction to a wider discussion... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe the ptoblem here, the cause of people bashing the article, is the fact that this has been discussed to hell in these forums so people is kind of tired of the idm debate after 7 years of internet life funny though that the debate is still alive anyway why the aim to give music names? I guess men like to give names to everything... you need a name to sell a poduct |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This site is a bit of fun. IDM is shit. Your radio show is lame to say the least. Try not posting your shitty shows for 2 months and we'll all see how popular your selections are. |
||||||||

I will leave the building before the fire reaches me but I must be missing something here... was there a previous personal fight between pietrobot and jivver? if not, I cant understand why all the fire just for this article once again, I think I only understand half of the story |
