Yup I have to agree with the original sentiment of the instigating post.
Seems to me that much of the current crop of IDM hit a peak 12-14 months
ago. Since then I've been less and less wowed by what I've been hearing.
And I don't think it has to do with the quality of stuff coming out now,
but more at the fact that the classic-ae-influenced/derivitive style has
run its course.
So these days I still stick to a handful of artists that have established
a good reputation, but I just don't have the head or wallet to keep up
with every new artist.
These days I've pretty much directed my attention towards all the dubby
and minimal techno. I don't know if much of it is that innovative, but it
sounds fresh to my ears.
anyway..
