Otherwise known as IDM or Intelligent Dance Music, which
means that the usual audience is beard stroking rather than
booty shaking. (if you don't have one,stroking someone
else's beard is acceptable).


ahah, who wrote this?!

that looks rather nice..idm a problem as always though. i
haven't read the whole thing yet but those genres and names
connected to them seem alright.

It's all on the surface and very wrong. Whoever wrote that
isn't into music. Even though I couldn't give a shit about
the history of music, The Wire would have alot to say about
those inaccurate popularist name drops.

yeah, it's a bit superficial, but those seem to be the names
most commonly connected to those genres mentioned...even in
wire i would say :) does it bother you because only the big
names are mentioned (not necessarily the one that represent
it the best)?

i really don't know why people seem to see idm that
way..it's club music for me. most of it great to dance to..

i think it was more fun then correct. but it probably
attracts more nerdy kind of listeners. often people that is
not and don't want to be a part of the "dance scene". but
still, this is most often not the case.

We're charging our battery
And now we're full of energy
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots

We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots
We are the robots

this is the best definition

For me it's the falsehood.If I was my kids searching for
music that mattered and those names were produced as fact
I'd be pretty annoyed. All of those people were the 'pop' of
those movements. Important nonetheless but to be credited
as instigators is bollocks. Hopefully if anyone is really
bothered they'll dig a little deeper.

Not so much The Quick Guide to Experimental Music but The
Quick browse on the Internet to write up that feature I was
asked to do by the editor which I forgot over the weekend,
err, will this do?

oh yeah, definitelly. i think though, if someone will know
about those genres, im sure they would go deeper into
things..which makes that look odd now when i think about
it..who was it intened for? :)

exactly, it's a wikipedia style quote thing. Copying bits
from there is going to be the death of educated listening.
Honestly, I really don't want to read about music. With the
interweb I'll find itsoon enough.

weird how musiscians never really care about genres but
listeners do (musicians are occasionally listeners.. like
when they listen, and they immediately gain the listeners
special feature).
