if bjork's homogenic wasn't idm in 1997, then how the hell can radiohead's kid a be idm in 2000? i mean, c'mon... idioteque is the only song that really has that idm-esque music. the rest is pretty rockin'. great album, but i'd hardly call it idm. and them listening to aphex or autechre or gescom or whoever in the studio sure as hell doesn't make it idm either. big deal. lots of people listen to lots of stuff. sure you're influenced to a point, but i don't think radiohead (or just thom or whatever) listened to that stuff and said 'oh. well, now we're going to make an idm record'. i wonder if they've even heard of "idm"... alan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
