obviously if you're into idm you're already listening to it; therefore, the difference between calling it braindance (which I do prefer, however) or idm is basically aesthetic. ”idm” is for those few people who ask you what music you're into, and when you tell them that it is ”intelligent”, pretentious as it may be, they're as clueless as they was before. and when you finally play the first couple of minutes of ziggomatic 17 they'll tell you they're not into "techno" anyway (!). "braindance" has the advantage of not needing an acronym. it's a sweet, little cake that tastes as good as it looks. |

I've stopped using idm since edm became a term. |

I only listen to sextronica transica-telligent dancebeatstep. It's like Kenny G music mixed with Willow. |

I just call it dubstep, since we all love dubstep and people who listen to dupsteps are popular and hip to the maxxx. And then they go like 'oh yeahhh I loveeeee skrillex' and I be like ' fuck that gay sextronica transica-telligent dancebeatstep the XVII shit' then i bust out my dubturdo and show them the magic |

I'd never heard of EDM until yesterday, where it ambushed me from some comment about Daft Punk. I'd never use the term IDM and I don't think any of the music I like comes under such a name. It's all Ambient Techno. |

i've given up on genre names for this stuff, it was never cohesive to begin with and even less now. the most specific i'll get is the record label if im trying to describe what i listen to other people (along with avoiding saying dubstep). fortunately i hang with folks who'd actually at least know warp if not mu or rephlex. |

EDM is the scurge of electronic music. You can't really describe what EDM is, it's this amorphous blob that absorbs weaker producers in its path and turns them all into the same plastic poppy sham of a scene. all other genres of electronic music can become EDM if done with a sufficient lack of heart and ingenuity. |

EDM is a twat in a mouse mask that prompts some famous detroit electro guy to go on an anti-semitic rant, hurling accusations of said twat being a failed music journalist |

I used to call it that because that's what the shops labelled it as. Now for some reason I feel silly saying electroniCAH. It's fine, whatever. Electronic music. Music made with synthesizers. Genre obsession. I EXCLUSIVELY listen to ELECTRONICA BITCH FUCK YOUR ROCK. |

The computer algorithms are created by geniuses, then made widely available to be wielded by retards. Its the same with the videogame industry. So I would call it GAWBR (genius algorithms wielded by retards) music. |

'experimental electronica' works for me: most of them (the other people) seem to understand that. |
