i foundit hard to believe when, about 6 months ago, my dad actually asked me to burn him a cd with a bunch of the more laid back stuff i'd been listening to. most of the stuff he'd heard was the first aphex twin i'd ever heard (4, mookid, etc.) and a little bit of BoC. since then, i've made him 4 more cd's, and am working on the next 2. the rest of my family listens to it too :O
it just surprised me a bit. does your family put up with this music?

my mom understands it and listens to it a little...
My younger sister bought hard normal daddy and listens to it all the time (see is 11) and I burn her some hard to find "IDM" stuff and she really digs it.
but everyone else in my family doesnt like it.

I don't really show it to them because i don't care for half-wit comments.
The only thing I recollect was that I had Polynomial-C on and my brother came in and said it wasn't bad...but he also said Fingerbib sounded like "eighties movie credits" or something stupid like that.
He likes Bon Jovi, by the way.

i don't know..my cat (shown on my avatar) seems to dig nine inch nails a bundle. she ALWAYS rubs up against the speaker or lies down in front of it and purrs whenever nin's playing...but other than that she usually puts her ears back
i think it's pretty cool, but i've been trying to get her into afx..she's not too fond of the sudden loud noises.

none of my family like the music I listen to. my dad likes classical and some jazz, and some of those 40's crooners. My mum has slightly better taste with 60's stuff and classical and she'll occasionally say that she likes something I've got playing when she visits. My youngest brother is into classical mostly and my other brother likes Meat Loaf, the soundtrack to Dirty Dancing and music performed by Al Jolson (believe it or not).
I played my family 'Pictures of Matchstick Men' by Status Quo, 'Lost In Fog' by Disco Inferno and 'Next Heap With' by Aphex, and they hated all of them. "It's not real music is it" they state. bah.

well everyone around me (and especially in this area) don't like it if it's not ROCK, say..led zeppelin, soad..whatever, if they can't picture it, then it's not real music
they say it's not real and it sucks.
also, they tell me that since i don't play an instrument, i have horrible taste in music (everyone around me plays guitar mostly) and the drum machines..boy do they hate those
they say there's no talent, too
little do their pea brains know

My dad doesn't mind Boards of Canada or the Drukqs Piano pieces. My brother likes a lot of Aphex Twin and N.O.W. as well as some BoC. My mum tolerates most of it (apart from "noise") although she doesn't actually like any of it.

Mine are 'into' it or anything but they don't mind most of the idm I play. They find SAW2 depressing which is pure blasphemy but sometimes I make the odd break-though - Orbital's Brown album was a hit due to similarities with Reich (We're all big Reich fans) and once my mom walking while Orbus Terrarum (The Orb) was playing and asked 'what's this ? It's really nice'. But then again they describe autechre as the 'sounds of an old washing machine giving up the ghost' !!! So by and large they're into the psychadelic or more ambienty side of idm.

i bought him almost everything autechre has done and the comment is almost the same:there are too few ideas and those few ideas are confused.....he really doesn't understand a fuck he's an asshole.....i think that who doesn't understand songs like tewe and recury from chiastic slide is a fucking asshole....my father is too lazy to listen to new music....so he listens all the time to fucking fado....portogese shitty folk music..........

yeah my mum is really polite about it, but not really into it.
my sister likes the kind of breakbeat stuff and she like some of my blippy stuff. ("oh my god that song is sooo CUTE!!! burn it for me!")
my dad is real open minded he loves squarepusher (barring his recent glitchyish stuff).
He always has cds of my stuff in the car.

hey at least one of your family members seems to be accepting it.
my mom used to let me play what i want in car, but i think she always did and now shes happier with some decent idm, than with public enemy or other sampling maniac hip hop, which i heard ages ago (and still enjoy)
my cousins never liked it. they are 12 now and hate everything i play, they just can listen to charts and chart-techno, strange.. i think
