Anus_Presley If you have a look in the Aphex edition of NME from last year in the bottom left hand corner of the main interview page is a picture of rdj with all of the rephlex crew in the background. The caption for the picture says "Rephlex: Probably the coolest label in the world." No the question is, "Is NME cool in order to make it's opinion valid?" My guess is that all those people you know where you live who are into new monkey will probably think it is, so i guess the answer is "Yes, IDM is cool." |

"by the way, what do college music professors think of idm?" depends on what school you go to, but I think that most college music instructors think that it just noise, glitches and blips and bloops, they apprieciate that someting different and a style of music that is abstract and to them that makes in interesting. It varies from school to school I think IDM doesnt have to be cool, music shouldnt be about being cool, it should stick to being about music, the whole cool attitude really ruined hip hop IMO. |

yes i have a stinking amount of points. please bow down and kiss my feet! ;) WINKIES |
||||||||

|
|
it should be about weather you like it or not and yeah, coolness trashed the hiphop/ bboy/ breakdance scene |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think hip hop sucks cause we're seeing those posers around with tricked out cars and wearing jersyes. that does not make you affiliated with hip hop at all ... just the look. and that look is quiet embarrasing imo. they'll look back on themselves in 40 years and llaaaaauugh. period. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it sucks.. but that doesnt mean coolnes hasnt trashed hip hop and amonbrune: i really re5pect you for getting 7100 points of witch 99% is total spam and you havent been banned (permanently yet) |

what do college professors think of IDM? in the synthesis department, they love it. Dr Boulanger... one of the guys who helped make csound (check out for info on him) LOVES autechre and hes like 40-50. not sure but teachers in the jazz department dont like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean by synthesis zeus? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry, i was being specific to my school... we have different departments at berklee, for each major there is the synthesis department... and its all about sound design... synthesizers, samplers, DSP, everything electronic... |
||||||||

IDM is the coolest thing since Donald Duck! |
||||||||

college professors... Interesting points everyone is bringing up about this. I've found that older music afficianados can not listen to IDM appropriately. Simply because IDM pulls historic references from more recent eras... and nowadays, from itself. If a [professor] has never heard dub, hip hop, NES music, C64 tunes, house music or electro, then there is no point of reference. IDM will sound like a bunch of beeps and bloops (and occasionally 'schnoots')... so there |

yes, but we cant generalize about people. alot of my older teachers DO listen to all sorts of music, dub, hiphop, house, electro etc etc etc you should hear the music that my teachers make... its fucking amazing go to the csounds link i posted before... go to Dr Richard Boulanger, and there is songs he's done with csound. "make sure you get the mp3... not the .orc or .sco file and check out the radio batton! |

there is a gap between idm and "normal" music thats waaay to large to be crossed without a very open mind |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Good point! IDM is the end of a musical journey for many and your ears are ready. That may not be the case for everybody tho , some people are incredibly open minded when it comes to music. |
||||||||
|

IDM IS cool.....listening to stuff that You want and not being a sheep is cool, and how can Sclub juniors possibley be considered cool? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sure thing :) its kind of a head trip to listen to some 40-50 year old, and his music is just like what you listen to all the time! when i first heard it i was like... holy shit... this guy is like, old... but makes awesome music! hehehe |

"there is a gap between idm and "normal" music thats waaay to large to be crossed without a very open mind" > depends. some idm is very accessible, RDJalbum for example, or some squarepusher tracks (esp. the first tracks from most of his albums)... and i think these could be considered as "cool". cooper's world, for example. but autechre for example i don't think is "cool". it may be great, but cool isn't the word for it imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

It is ABSOLUTELY not cool. And yet, it is. There's so many types of ''cool''. Computer geeks can be ''cool'' in their own Elvis Costello-ish ways. It's hip to be square sometimes. I am NOT cool. |
||||||||
|

i'm anti-cool |
