Do you think that "electronic dance" and genres like bigbeat, downtempo and dubstep could ever become "IDM" with greater objectivity and more intelligent sonic power? What would be needed to achieve this? Could it be achieved simply by utilising more 303s to generate more accurate beats, or is something different or more fundamental required?

There is overlap, music genres are just sections in record shops so you can find stuff. For instance Acidic sounding influences can be found in all those music types mentioned :)
Look up. "Bass time continuum" & "redbull lectures" and watch a few. Kode 9?

the best shit is hard to classify. it's the result of a mind that doesn't see genre boundaries; instead sees what works and what doesn't.
"stop the panic" by luke vibert & bj cole is a fine example. is it electronic? hip hop? surf music? acid? it has all these things, and more. you don't exactly picture them sitting in the studio, saying to each other, "whoa there, let's reel it back in, we're straying too far away from the definition of hip hop."
so why should anyone else care? except, as jaser said, when it's used in a how-to-organize-the-bookshelf sense.

Little boxes.. More and more, smaller and smaller ones. It's absolutely stupid and does fuck all to promote personal creativity.

it's perfect, though, in light of the galapagos island shit this scene has going on. i figure there have to be at least a few biologists on this board, people that spend all day classifying and naming species of mosquito in a specific geographic region of the amazon rainforest. it's like violence at a hockey game, genre arguments will always happen in any nerd crate like this
why don't as many women compulsively classify and sort? or even have stamp collections? nature or nurture? hardware or software?

The comment is still relevant. To me at least.
Nice going with the clichés there, Nevs! I thought you tried to avoid that. Just like i'll avoid saying you obviously don't know many women.. Aaaanyway..

a cliche is an overused expression, perhaps you meant stereotype? at least, i think you meant that.
i don't know much of anyone, i sit in a basement all day coding and fucking with synths, but the statistics are on my side, here. same as saying "professional boxers are mostly men," it's not bias, it's fucking fact. all i intended to do was throw the question of "why" to the minds of XLT, much like throwing a baby gazelle to a pack of starving hyenas. i figure we can have the issue sorted before teatime tomorrow; don't disappoint me.

Overused or not, it doesn't nulify it's meaning when used correctly. Also you've 'forced' me to say that i like the word because i speak french fluently.
Your second paragraph was really boring.

Post your sources for the stats that back you up Nevs. Your straw man argument about boxers doesn't work.

'Tangent' isn't a verb.
Post your sources Nev or step back into your grief pit.

Do you understand things via wikipedia?
'Tangent' isn't a verb.

I only really enjoy softcore transient-delay aquaphonic soundscapes featuring dead rappers on vocals.

i'm more about electro/avant-garde but still slightly dance-y albums whose opening track title involves the word "disco" somehow. some standouts from this genre include ladytron's "604", bottin's "horror disco" and coil's "love's secret domain"
