IDM Mailing Archive

Alright, I know it can't possibly make a wit of difference, but I wanna complain to the list. I take a half hour to compose my major IDM epistle, probably for the year, "Music for Baby," and I get two (2!!) responses. As far as I could tell it was a kindly worded request for suggestions in the way of lush and mellow IDM, with a dozen track reviews to tune listmembers in to the vibe I was after. Meanwhile, some freak says techno didn't come from Detroit and we get 3 days (and counting) worth of postings on material that's ALL in the archives. Music, People...MUSIC! mumble, mumble, harumph....sdmsmsZenonwouldhavefoundafunnywaytosaythis..blablabla..... .... magic hands

that's exactly the point. it really amazed me what a massive respons the post by stupid _Ftood_ caused. i mean, if someone is stating that, qoute

why do you care, what he missed, what he should learn or whatsoever. such ignorant people are not worth the trouble at all. i wouldn't be suprised if _Ftood_ is somewhere rotfl, considering all the excitement he caused. calm down my fellow IDMers and come back to the important bits of music. -- Toralf reporting live from Friedrichshafen, Lake Bodensee, Germany.

Hey, what's wrong with being a freak?! Gimme a break, anyone on this list resenting being called a freak is like a engineering student trying to ditch the title of "geek" or a lawyer taking offense at being called a "scum-sucking parasite on the underbelly of society." khannan suntharam, a freak,geek and one who aspires to become a greedy blood sucking parasite who delights in the suffering of others. kxs28972@bayou.uh.edu

First of all, I know of two electronic musicians who composed music for their wives during labor and later released it: Orbital and Howie B. The orbital track that was written for childbirth is Belfast off the first Orbital album. The Howie B material intended for childbirth is last year's Music for Babies lp. Try both of those releases for they type of music you're looking for. Good luck with the birth... dad. :) Well, thanks for the tips--I've seen the Howie B. all over the place, guess it slipped my mind. Someone care to elucidate the virtues of this album for me? Belfast is for babies, I never knew. Thanks, magic hands p.s.: the birth is already fact: Jan. 10, 6:13 pm, a baby girl, Amaya, 6 lbs. 12 ozs. thanks for the kind wishes, love, dad

Hey, I personally am an Engineering Freak not Geek. I am nearly a four time freak but not even a level 1 geek. _ / \ /\ /__/ \ / \ \ / \avis1 \\\\ Freak At Large ravis1@concentric.net http://home.concentric.net/~ravis1/ ----------
