My point was that the term IDM came about, in my opinion, because of the
popularity of commercial dance trash, sort of like a campaign. Before the
commercial trash thing happened, which I would say was around 91-92, there
was no need for the term "intelligent", because it was all underground and
all very intelligent anyway. Derrick May, along with everyone else during
techno's birth, fall into that bracket. Their music was techno then and
still is now.
