hi, normally i lurk but on this subject i thought it'd be good to speak
up...being that i'm female and all :o)

| Indeed, I like many of you, am mystified about the definite lack of
|female IDM fans. Perhaps not many women are into IDM because not maky women
|make IDM?
I think this is a close to correct statement. but IMO its not the lack of
female producers, its simply that more females have no idea what IDM is. i
love IDM and without knowing it, have for years. i stopped being so involed
with the whole techno scene about 3 years ago when i had a child, but still
continued to collect vinyl, just recently some friends were over flipping
through my stuff and informed me that most of my collection is IDM. i really
had no idea because i just collect what i love and at that point it wasn't
labeled IDM.
Think about it, 98% of IDM acts are male, but then again, many cock
|rock acts are male too... Perhaps IDM needs more sexy front men? Nah...
nah ... i love brilliant talented geeks with keyboards :oP
| I dunno, personally speaking, my girlfriend is one of the biggest
IDM
|fans I know of, and she mike paradinas' most fervent supporter. What is it
she
|sees in the music? According to her, it has more "color" than any other
music
|she has been exposed to, and I agree with her.
I agree with you and her both, its very deep and so intricate. i think most
people just don't understand it and dislike it because of this.
Oh, and she also finds the
|music quite sexy,
DITTO!! its VERY sexy.
but maybe she's just an exception, and IDM is really a guy
|thing...
oh no no no! not at all! IDM is not just a guy thing. or well hey, if it
stays a guy thing.. there'll just be more brilliant talented geeks with
keyboards for me :oP
Peas,
