Where on earth do you get your logic to come to this conclusion?

Well to me, a lot of experimental and ambient music falls under the
heading of IDM. Warps AI series is what could be called "intelligent
listening music", and incase you didnt notice, the list is called
"intelligent dance music." This is how I see artists like Mu-Ziq and Aphex
Twin being relevant as opposed to artists like Moby or the Arpeggiators.
Im not willing to tell you, however, that your music isn't "intelligent"
if you think it is. But, music such as Gabber and Breakbeat is not
relevant and should be avoided. There are limits.

Thats your opinion and thats fine. But if you don't like what we talk
about, then leave.

I'm sure they will if it is relevant to IDM. If you want to hear people
talk about Industrial Strength however, I suggest you go look somewhere else.

Wrong. There are limits to discussion. Start talking about what your
having for dinner tonight or yugoslavian politics and your off.
Im not trying to do anything mean here, I just wish you could respect
the limits of the list and the mailboxes of the 260+ people subscribed.
Of course side-topics are going to come along occasionly, and that fine.
Just be nice and play fair.
