(idm) The IDM mantra

Given the recent discussion about 'idm', repeat after me: "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" "It's IDM, not I dot D dot M dot" [repeat ad infinitum] While it may have originally been defined as intelligent dance music, it's safe to say that that doesn't exactly cover the contents (anymore). Now it has become a generic term, like walkman, to xerox, to fedex etc. etc. Then what exactly is IDM? By definition (!!) the stuff that is considered appropriate for discussion here! *We* are continuously defining and re-defining IDM, it's an evolutionary process. Otto
