Well, I AM snobbish and elitist, but I still don't like the term, because the disgusting word ''DANCE'' is in there. I don't DANCE to this shit. Usually I'm sitting on my ass.

1. It's no more "Intelligent" than the Backstreet Boys -- it's just better.
2. This music is generally not danceable.
3. IDM sounds stupid and pompous.

idm stood for "intelligent dance music" at one point but no longer does as no one seems to care for it. the term idm simply describes a broad genere of electronic music and it is here to stay. any more mention of so called "intelligent dance music" is meaningless because idm no longer means anything beyond idm... imo.

I guess you've all seen it, but from the footer at rephlex.com:
it's not "intelligent" it's not "dance" it's not "music" it's so much more... it's "braindance"

everythings become far too mixed up to be able to pen it into one genre, in that sense, we should be happy. and I think we've got the sampler to thank for that

rather than call it "i d m" we should just pronounce it "id'm" (like ism with a d)
so when people ask us what we listen to...we can just say "idm" and when they ask "whats idm?" you can reply..."its the shizidd'm yidd'm fo' shidd'm"

its just a title! we need some way of describing the music, and idm is a nice quick word to say.
...although if my freinds ask what 'that horrable shit on the stereo' is i usually say 'alternative dance', coz i know if i say 'idm' i would have to explain it to them.

anyways, here's an idea -- maybe the "intelligent dance" bit should be read together -- like mathematics is an "intelligent dance" -- when viewed like that, it kinda loses its elitism and sounds pretty cool -- and the music is the sound of mathematics ie the INTELLIGENT DANCE!!

like it or not, the term IDM is here to stay. it's well established.
i dont really mind the term. but when i refer to this kind of music while talking to someone that isnt familiar with it, i call it "werid sounding shit". they get the basic idea.

I think braindance is a much worst term for the kind of music.
I think we should call it "rock and roll" cause a lot of the time the sounds are so abraisive they are similar to that of rocks being rolled down a hill.

I don't know--I don't feel a need to label it. I have a much bigger problem with "drill-'n'-bass." I don't know what drill-'n'-bass is, except that it's different than drum-n'-bass and apparently was invented by Aphex.

i hate when people ask what music im into, cos promarilly i started liking Fatboy Slim, then Chemical Brothers, then Bentley Rhythm Ace, a ton of others, The Avalanches, Lemon Jelly then the marvels of Afx, Squarepusher, blah,blah, Catatonia, Basement Jaxx, Badly Drawn Boy... too many different styles I like so I hate when ppl ask me. I also ate when they ask, I name a few, and some smart arse goes "what's that shite? oh, them... yeah, crap". to me, if u aint got nowt nice to say, don't say owt at all. yes.

I can't honestly Say or figure out what to call this type of music...i have a hard time explainin it to people. Its not crappy house/techno u know 4 beats andth hi hat. Its just something completely new and thank god no one can govern what is commercially appealing with this type of music too....more freedom for the artists!!!! finally
