||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

||||||||

i often call it electronica (in a dutch way), but IDM is fine too imo. electro is something completely different |
||||||||
|

reminds me of this crazy geezer who came up to me in a club he goes "people take drugs... to make themselves feel Better than everyone else! ive had eccy and coke myself.." he looked like was gonna kill someone! |
||||||||

Electro is something completely different. Try to convince repHlex heads braindance is crap. ;) |

I like braindance more than IDM. IDM sounds like something the americans made up (no offense to americans). But yeah, plain electronica seems to work for most people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate IDM overall .... it sounds so selfish |
||||||||
|
|

no shit, this is a poll! haha! oh man i say electro as an abbreviation. we abbreviate everything here in australia but yknow, im a humble guy, dont feel the need to use any flashy terms. its always a tough one to describe what i do, when people ask me.. the best i normally manage is 'real messy electro' and almost noone round here knows our biggest influence, autechre ;) |
||||||||

IDM sounds way too smug/self-superior, as if *this* music is intelligent but the other stuff isn't. How about 'music to bug out to'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dig ;] |

rockenjohnny: how's the electronica-scene in .au? got radiostations playing stuff? i'm planning to go down under this year... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i would like to make new definitions: idm is ok when its only taken for music that really makes you want to move... braindance should be any other electro then (id say something that doesnt bore) unluckily evreybody has another definition for something that makes you move and something that doesnt bore... damn difficult |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i was thinking the same thing as phobia, electro is way different and personally, i consider braindance a rephlex only kind of thing. anyways i like drill n bass the best, but i can't use it for stuff like BoC an such. All though i just describe them as "really chill downtempo electronic". i've got my own little description for all of them... conversation: girl (after seeing my home made I HEART VENETIAN SNARES shirt): what are venetian snares? me: he's this guy from canada who makes fucked up music girl:why do you like him then? me; CAUSE I LOVE FUCKED UP MUSIC |

Ironic 'Dance' Music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just simply call it electronic music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i cuddent give a flying fuck to be honest. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i calll it idm because its the official term. i dont care if the word 'idm' sounds crap, thats what its called. deal with it. i dont think rock sounds like rocks, and i dont think pop has any 'popping' sounds in it, but it doesnt matter, thats its name. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Grr...drunk...it' music...my winamps cd databass doesn't pick up amber...hows that for underground IDM...that's what makes it so intelligent...so good...but no one knows bout it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
according to allmusic, aphex is "whimsical" heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's what electronic music should be called from now on: WHIMSICAL heh i love it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
please I ve got some money and I would like to buy some cds could you please recomend me some good cds... I would rather some WHIMSICAL, you know |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and over time the "intelligent whimsical music" genre will separate itself from the other "whisical" music... and we'll be faced with this silly question yet again. heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why can't it just be called "Electronic Music"? Must if have a single-word reference? Electronica just makes me think of trance and dance shit. IDM sounds pretty good aside from what it stands for. Braindance just sounds plain-out dumb. So I say the term "Electronic Music" is the best thing to call Electronic Music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Alternative electronica? Experimantal electronica? I relise these names are shit. But the reaction on someone face when you tell them whatt IDM stands for makes these valid suggestions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

umm ive not really noticed much of a scene for wacked out electro.. theres a whole heap of nightclubs which seem to play the all same thing. but yknow its picking up. here in perth theres a damn fine radio station, rtrfm, and yeah, theyre play all sorts of stuff. gotta hand it to them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it should be called Structured Chaos, or, Your Granny Wouldent Like It |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
rocken: RTR is a rockin' station!! Triple J's allright, but the only electro(nic) thing they've played was Girl/Boy Song 10pm on the Mix up thingy on a Saturday night! We want more, dammit! MORE!! =D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lets call it: GEM Good Electronic Music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Internet Dork Music. Irritating Dork Music. Bah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

spaztik muzik. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What other genre besides IDM could list both a group like boards of canada and a guy like snares... IT'S INSANE |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all though i think i managed to mix them together on my tables once |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
VSnares would be more of a Experimental IDM and BoC more Ambient. Or something like that. Just call it Electronic Music! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Or just keep IDM as a meaningless set of three letters and forget of the meaning behind it... A: What does IDM stands ? B: I don`t know, but is mostly experimental electronic music... Or let's just call it electronic post modernism and start acting like snobs ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If I am describing "IDM"/braindance/glitch/ whatever the fuck you wanna call it........ when I am describing it, I call it: experimental electronic music. I like to call it that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
intimidating dark music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it says 'alternative dance' in record shops...but then again thats what it describes Big Beat as too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i've never seen why people cant just call it electronic music.. when you need to be more specific, you can just say, experimental electronic music when asked what kind, i often just say 'weird electronic stuff' a genre so wide and nebulous will never have a specific title.. deal with it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like to call it braindance even though it's pretentious i just like the sound of it. mostly i call it "weird experimental technoey styuff" |
