<< so what defines intelligence in today's dance music scene?!? when you
guys
talk about IDM, i think of music with a simple melody and a
direction...nothing more. that, in turn, categorizes just about every piece
of written electronic music as IDM. on the other hand...y would you even
want to seperate electronic dance music into "intelligent" and
"non-intelligent" genres?? with one of the two labels being given, does
that
really do anything for the artist that wrote the track? electronic music
should be labeled intelligent, as it takes some skill and "intelligence" for
the programming, sequencing, and recording aspect of the track.

When I think of IDM, I think of annoying, repetitive topics that have no
pertinence in the first place.
Of course that's a bit of negativity. IDM is just a list, thinking of it as
a musical genre really limits it in my opinion.
