i'm very interested in the similarities and connections between industrial music and idm. i wonder how many people have become aware of idm through industrial. i, for one, became aware of idm through ambient. i remember my first idm purchases: aphex twin - saw2, ae - amber, boc - music has the right, and oval - diskont; all of which have respect by the ambient/chill-out audience. i would think that most idm fans got interested in idm through ambient and the more general electronic musics. (this is excluding the old-school idmers, those who've been there since artificial intelligence and earlier.) i wonder how many have become idm fans through meat beat manifesto instead of the orb. comments? as far as reznor goes, i can definitely identify elements in his music that i can also identify in the work of many idm artists. i don't listen to industrial music (i don't own any of the records), but i'm interested in it. can anyone name a few artists/albums that blur the lines between idm and industrial? _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
