I don't mean to be a dick, but this thread is really starting to piss me off- I can't believe the arrogance and being exuded by uninformed people on this list right now. I don't know how people can say that IDM is complex music that you sit and listen to because it's so hard to understand- I have yet to find *any* IDM like this. IDM is simply house music with beats that are slightly weirder and different synths. It's not any less repetitive or any more "heady." Most fucking IDM producers don't even know how to make a key change, much less write music that requires me to sit down because it's so fucking complex i can't listen to it and stand up at the same time. Sure, a lot of bad house (and there is a lot of it) sounds the same, but how many Autechre clones are there out there? They're certainly not doing anything crazier than a lot of the house producers out there, of whom there are a lot of great ones, especially in the "tech-house" areas. Go to www.mad-net.de and listen for a long time then come back and talk to me. -- :: atomly :: atomly@atomly.com | atomly@atdot.org | atomly@curiousnetworks.com http://www.atomly.com | http://www.mp3.com/atomly --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
