Artificial Intelligence I & II on Warp are real classics of the original IDM sound. AI II is especially worth having (esp the 2cd version), it is one of those rare compilations which hangs together really well as an album instead of just sounding like a collection of different tracks. They are more about lush, beautiful melodies than the sort of spikey beatistry that seems to define the modern sound though. d0ktor -----Original Message----- From: j elrod <turquoisecloud@yahoo.com> To: idm@hyperreal.org <idm@hyperreal.org> Date: Wednesday, August 11, 1999 7:04 PM Subject: (idm) in need of a foundation/new idm building blocks
