Why does not liking vocals and/or guitars make someone a "fussy, narrow minded IDM Nazi" with their head up their arse? For example, I've heard vocal and/or guitar-based music for 30 years now. I'll well sick of it. I don't feel like I'm a fussy narrow-minded IDM Nazi with my head up my arse, quite frankly. I like a lot of different styles of electronic-based music, from Techno to Trance to Drum n' Bass to Deep House to Goa to Trip-Hop to Downtempo to ... etc. Quite enough of a palette for me, thanks. Your condescention to the previous poster is unwarranted. - Greg (Who wonders why many of the IDM Brits tend to be such a contrary lot)
