In a recent message ibss@ukrpack.net stated> please read the rules of this list first. Anyone is tired of this thread so please do not post such questions. It is clearly stated in idm-list statute. idm is a list about experimental elecronic music. nothing more. Why are you so concerned with rules? My posting has already been made. I've read the rules. thank you very much for your suggestion and concern though. what the hell does, "anyone is tired of this thread mean"? so far you are the only person on this list who has posted this opinion. when will you learn that you can only speak for yourself? if this were all about you the list would be called the opinions of an alien. who's an alien to tell people what's going on here? i feel that the question, "what is idm" is honestly a lot more worthwhile than a posting that says, " plaid can suck tom J's nuts", or "does anyone know who freaky flow is? he's really cool and the best DJ ever". maybe some people are really sick of these kinds of postings? i don't remember you posting anything about these wastes of time. i didn't put this up because i thought it would be some cutsie question to get people talking. i believe that when music that was experimental in 92 is being passed off as idm, and postings like these are even made, people of the list should be answering the question (or at least some of them). i write electronic music and it really pisses me off to hear you say that idm is a list and nothing more. what was it before this list? or were you even around then? idm stands for intelligent dance music. idm is not the name of this list, idm@ is just how they keep track of the mail not the actual name. this is hyperreal's idm mailing list, not intelligent dance music itself. i think they have one about raves too, you may be more interested in something like that. your opinion is exactly why i made this posting in the first place, and let's just say that you are right. if this is a list about experimental electronic music and nothing more then why are people making postings about drum and bass DJ's? who your favorite DJ is has nothing to do with idm. it seems to be more about a bunch of bullshit to me. I'm making this public because it started public for a reason. You claim idm is just a list. I've heard this a few times and can't help but wonder where you are coming from. also, if you'd like to be the one to explain to me what is experimental about drum and bass, or whether plaid could kick Autechre's ass or not I'll make a posting declaring my ignorance. that way everyone on the list can read another posting that they don't want to hear about and eventually, if this goes on long enough people will know my opinion on everything. boy George kicks everyone's ass. thanks for being a perfect example. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
