...these days and has for a while. maybe i've been out of the loop for too long and off this messageboard for longer; or maybe it has finally gotten to that point where the genre is diluted and overwhelmed to become dead in the water to me. i dunno, i guess after 10 years or so, it just doesn't blow my mind like it used to. stiill though, truely good music and artists will always thrive.
maybe it's my new found love for french electro (probably a total fad) speaking...but i'd rather dance than listen to supposedly technical beats and pretentious concepts.

idm is a fake lie interpretation of the works of aphex twin and his peers spread by american undergraduates and high school students during the formation of the idm list. idm = the flashbulb. fuck that shit. fuck that fucking shit in the eye!

Gantz Graf was the last truly great IDM album.

I'm beginning to think your hate for IDM should be in the Strange Fetishes thread.
Also how can a concept be pretentious? The person is pretentious.
Good blog material btw.

i never liked the idm concept, 'pretty idm' with glitchy beats and melodies on top never interested me.
abstract sounds bordering on musique concréte however still interests me a lot..
autechre has a fine line between those i guess.
i did my idm type album with mobius, now im looking for something new for my next album, some kind of concept a bit remote to idm..

I think the concept of introducing a pleasing melody then deconstructing it, with the addition of "dance beats" you can't dance to, and more than a splash of contempt for the listener, still has a great deal more life in it yet.

Well stuff that's produced to be "IDM" will suck. I don't think anyone's seriously used that term for years though anyway, at least I haven't heard it. I'm guessing that's why Warp branched out with a few signings over the past few years and prompted the predictable hailstorm of "IT"S NOT ELECTRONIC OMFG FUCK WARP!!!!!!" They probably didn't want to damn themselves to one trick pony status. Think of how many self-consciously "IDM" labels have surfaced and sunk over the past decade.

In a recent editorial in Organised Sound, Tony Myatt suggested that 'Computer Music' is now a term that should be used to describe IDM and that words such as 'electroacoustic' and concepts such as Schaeffer's 'modes of listening' are now meaningless. Discuss.
I have to do this essay today. 2500 words please.

it sucks pretty good imo... it doesnt fall into the quarreling of most posts in this particular thread, but whats with this "no good releases anymore nonsense" which comes up at least twice a year? as if people would know every single release.
lets have more of those "i like this artist/style, anyone recommend me some more?" threads, i like those :)

“'Intelligent Techno' was laughable enough for it not to bother us. It was almost like, how ridiculous is that? OK, well, we'll go with it, because no intelligent person would ever read anything into it anyway: self-defeating proposition.”

I'm really tired about IDM/complex techno music, maybe for a while, but now I just listen Italo-Disco shit and related sorts, I prefer now that 80's (80 to 86) underground Italian artists (very shity) but is really fun for me. I'm much more close to Analord than Drukqs.
