i have heard different theories, but that one is new for me and actually kinda reliable.
"Richard Devine: I think the name was tagged back in the early days of the newsgroup called IDM, which was founded by Alan M. Parry. Originally it was just a news forum for fans talking about Aphex Twin. Eventually more music started to come out during this time with the emergence of the Artificial Intelligence compilations and the Warp label. The list soon became a discussion group for all music that sounded like Aphex Twin."

i thought it came from future sound of london, and orb, and people of that nature...cause it wasnt just cliche dance, house, whatever music...
what do i know though...that genre name is gayer than breakcore

It's such a fucking crap genre-name. There are lots of smart people making dancefloor tracks, and lots of geeky idiots making "Intelligent" dance music. All the drum and bass/house/techno/electro innovators were fucking geniuses for inventing the foundations of dance music in the first place. Even shit trance producers are smart enough to make a buck out of their cheesy tracks.

Mariah Carey is hot and an awesome singer. Like my mate at work says when he sees a fit girl "I would treat her like a fucking princess."

She's a nice and sensitive girl. She went suicidal after one of her boyfriends left her. Beautiful voice.

the problem with IDM is most artists quite clearly span several genres but it seems wrong to put one person in multiple categories, we just need a vague blanket term but none seems quite right. 'Electronica' is okay but Iambic Poetries etc make that one a bit off too

"music" is a nice term and has been quite reliable for a long time.
though i think that has some issues too.
electronic music.... hmm not all electronic really...
exellent electronic music.... some is ok.
"stuff" , , . . . ahh thats nice.
i listen to stuff i eat stuff i like stuff i excrete stuff
wow! its so versatile :)

stuff is the best one probably
i ususlly use the term "loads of wierd shit" or sometimes "all sorts of random crap" when describing to people what sort of music i like.

IDM is just a blanket term for a bunch of artists who don't really fit in particular electronic subgenres.

yeah, id agree. i reckon there are prolly 3 styles within "IDM" too -
slightly more ambient chillout stuff (BoC etc.) proper abstract stuff (autechre, some aphex) drill and bass etc (some squarepusher, muziq, some aphex)
