I mean WTF? The vast majority of IDM (and techno) is about melancholy / "sad" / minor chords and atmospheres if you will. The only in your face most of the time happy IDM i can think of is u-ziq. Lets face it, lots of folks get turned off by this music cuz it's not always happy and uplifting. yeah.. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

OK, then, here's a list of IDM artists and what I associate them with: Boards of Canada: melancholic, nostalgic (both sad & happy) Aphex Twin: shit-faced happy at times, dead pet dog sad at times Plaid: generally happy, with some sad Autechre: no emotions! robot machine music! Plone: syrupy sugar funhouse crazy happy Proem: crunchy cotton candy, like BoC as far as emotions go. Freeform: crazy clown who scares the shit out of otherwise happy kids at circus Jamie Liddell: 1950's Tunnel of BLAAHRKRILLUG! Marumari: happy like reading old pulp scifi/horror Kid-606: Angry yet oddly erotic, like fat Elvis E*Vax: melancholy, nostalgic Clarence Park: even the dark stuff makes me happy Capitol K: just rocking; I guess it makes me happy Cylob: sorta weak version of aphex (happy & sad stuff, enjoyable, but...)

that, and lyrics. even yer average sad goth-kid will shy away from the saddedt music if it doesn't have lyrics. -evilAdam __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

my thoughts and opinions: a) those aren't the only tracks on "clarence park" b) the album as a whole just leaves me feeling happy, even though a number of them are "sad" - i can't explain it c) maybe I'm biased cuz I'm tired of all the 'nostalgic, melancholy' IDM out there, and therefore hearing music the way I want to !D Now please, let's not have "c" start a big argument about anything, ok nice people with fuzzy happiness in your hearts and girdles? Extra, extra! - if you haven't yet read any Harry Potter books, and especially if you think it's all just lame, you definitely need to read "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (or, if yer not in the US, it's "..and the Philosopher's Stone). This book kicks ass! All you "nostalgic, melancholic" people, read it, for everybody's sake! More crunchy cotton candy music, please -fluffyAdam PS - why does everyone care what Aphex' new music will be like? impatient bunnies risk going tharn, you know... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
