the only persons that like idm are my brother (8 years old and a nutcase already) and my mum (altho she only likes the more gentle kind of stuff.. she said that jega - geometry made her sick to the stomach) |

"This is just trippy shit" (aphex twin/drill 'n bass in general) or "What kind of hash music is this?! :\" (seefeel) or [insert "funny" comparison to random electronic sound] (esem, twine) My mum seems to be the only reasonable person when it comes to this. She likes BoC, Bola, SAWII etc. |

When I put Prefuse 73's Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives on at my brothers once he said 'Is the CD skipping?' |

|

I was hanging out and discussing freemasonry with a couple hip-hop loving friends of mine, so I put on MHTRTC. They said "hey, who are these guys? these are some wicked beats." |

Just the boring, stock ''that isn't music''! comment when someone hears me listening to electronic music. Pointing, laughing, guffawing, the works. |

my granny on hearing Ae's Yeesland: "What a nice rhythm! Let the music play!" i kid you not. |

My brother says it's not his kind of music, "it" being electronic music in general. He's not enough of an idiot to call what I listen to worthless or not music, though. Judging from what I've played in their presence, my parents like Múm's finally we are no one, and Lexaunculpt's The Blurring of Trees; also SAW 2 and the RDJ album. When I put on Incunabula once, my mother said it sounded like farting. Venetian Snares causes them to stay out of the room. ...and my friends seem to like most of this kind of stuff. Also, I tend to get positive feedback on my own music, except the more noise-ish tracks. |

random people that I've shown random electronic artists: "I don't get it." True story. |

for me asking people what they fink of the music is a test, if they like it.....at least show interest, then we have a foundation for friendship. otherwise they get kicked out the door...bye madonna, bye n'shit....i dont let morons in my life anymore, unless theyre female and good looking |

how can you listen to that random crap? a friend on squarepusher |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is such a stupid thing to say, its like "i love predictable shit"...i just love bineg able to predict every feckin thing in me life, cuz i am a ignorant little tart that loves nothing more than the feeling of safety through the illusion of control given to me through this sense of structure, that i am able to comprehend, which for most morons is 4/4, anything beyond is the moon landiing to them, it didnt happen |

stepdad to the merzbow i slipped him with his hippy brainwave recordings. "i had the headphones in, but not on, and this weird crackling scratchy noise came out so i ejected the cd and checked the stereo, then thought ok nothing wrong with this thing so i put it back in and ejected it again after 5 seconds of listening to it and said to myself, 'what the hell was that?'" stepdad to drukqs "still not good but better than that crap you slipped in last week!" |

hahah, it seems like we all have been in pretty much the same position.. WE are the music makers, and WE are the dreamers of the dreams. |

Stoner mate to Vsnares "this is some fucking good shit!" other mates to vsnares "whoa man, can't handle that, get it outta my cd player!" carpark folk to vsnares - looks of holy shit what is that? |

I was at college with a guy playing Macerate and Petrify by Snares and someone had the nerve to say "Are you actually enjoying that?" I just ignored him. But then I noticed, when I heard people playing soulless, bland pop music I possibly derive pleasure from that? And I start really thinking about it and come to the conclusion that nothing AT ALL matters. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My boss: That's just noise and not worth listening to at all. How can you say you enjoy that? No one can honestly enjoy that. What response could I have expected from someone as closed minded as him? |

My best friend to most of the stuff I played to him: "I like stuff that builds up and has a nice melody, like robert miles' 'children' " He likes the more "accesssible" stuff though, some examples: Red Hot Car Windowlicker Flim/IZ-US Telefon Tel Aviv's Fahrenheit Fair Enough Skinny Puppy Also, my mother to the noisier tracks on ultravisitor while I'm doing homework: "Are you comfortable listening to that music?" She's cool though, she doesn't care what I listen to as long as it isn't too loud :) My sister just hates it, but she doesn't want to say. My cousin when hearing me playing vsnares from the other room: "That sounds a bit too fast for me, but could you write it down for me to check out ayway?" |

I don't like people who don't like decent music. Ho ho ho. Truthfully conversation is pretty tough when someone is into dogshit. Its like 'oh you dig xyz dog shit group' mmm and they're yacking on about the strength of songwriting or whatever and you're thinking erm 'yeah put some fucking acid or some banging jungle on the record player' thats what I give for your songwriting waffle. Lol. |

I made a compilation for a girl in my art class last year... mostly non-idm stuff (stereolab, low, beth gibbons etc) although i put some more "accessible" squarepusher and ae on there. She liked a lot of it, but she asked me if i was "a closet christian". I didn't really know what to make of that. Oh, and she said "fuerte" by max tundra sounded like "gameboy music". Which to be fair, it does. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow...but gurlies usually hate idm and everything that's not shallow. god bless the ones that have a distinktiwe taste...i only know one girl that actually listens to AE,venetian snares (which she likes the most) and that kinda shit. |

Church music I've been told is what I listen to. That I thought amusing. I don't have any problems basically 'cause both my sisters dig cool music too. We've all gone to Rephlex gigs together and share a liking for electro, drum & bass, techno, BOC, Aphex, Plaid etc etc etc. |

i have a few (idm listening types) friends who turn their noses up at my music and then five months later come to me and rave about it and ask me if i've heard of it.... it's pretty goddamn amusing |
