in shops in britain, they generally lump everything into 4 categories: techno, house, downtempo breaks and jungle. if they are a bit more knowledgeable they will have a small electronica or experimental section but otherwise it just gets shoved in the techno section. i've never seen a shop with a section entitled 'idm', which is probably a good thing cos then the people into the other stuff would *never* buy it: 'intelligent? so that means the stuff i normally buy is unintelligent? fuck those wankers...' cheerio! np - ole - john coltrane
