tries harder either musically or just with sound. Devo might have not been
that great back in the 80's but if you listen to there synth programming it
was incredible for the time. They put in the extra time and made some
incredible synth solo's, i would call that IDM. But than again, i would also
call the talking heads song "born under punches" IDM. It was the avant garde
for the time.
