No no no no no. Context. Dance music goes boom boom.
Some people wanted more. Hence, "intelligent" dance
music. Now those people (mostly this list) have grown
up and enjoy a lot of esoteric or eclectic, vaguely
related stuff. That's all there is to it.
"electronic symphony" is a horrible alternative,
simply because most of the stuff at the root of IDM is
still heavily dance-related, be it hip-hop, house,
garage, d'n'b, or in some people's cases, waltz. It
might be a drab name for other specific subgenres of
music, but I think everything that's available at this
point already has quite appropriate nomenclature.
Now, can we stop beating this dead, buried, exhumed,
autopsied, buried again, exhumed again, cremated and
sifted-through-the-ashes topic and finally scatter it
to the four corners of the earth?
Please?

PS - and I'm sorry if I've missspellled 'exhumed' :P
