I agree partially with this Sok, IDM was a name for a "fledgling"
genre before you had very much of anything to compare it to. I feel
like the music genre "IDM" is kind of old and restricting and still
somehow very nebulous. I know people that make music that to most
would be called IDM, but when you mention the genre to them they balk.
damn, I lost my train of thought
Also as a newer member of the list, this whole mailing list thing to
me was overwhelming and intimidating. I also post on some threaded
message boards and found that to be vastly easier to understand and to
get "right" most of the time.
This is my first real post so pardon any mistake I may have made in format
