people have conversations that are more than a series of question asking
the discussion was about genres, perhaps you've been following the wrong
thread?
here's the link to the IDM page
http://music.hyperreal.org/lists/idm/
you might want to read the first sentence
i've been around since rdj only had tiny vinyl releases,
trying to get my buddies to get em at the uk record stores (they were very
hard to get, even back then)
i certainly remember when the IDM term first started circulating in the rags
and i still maintain that the term idm is a poor description of the music he
pioneered
but that was the point of the conversation and how the conversation began
you haven't insulted me, you just appear confused
maybe you should take your own advice?
