I love dealing with idiots who post their replies without actually reading the entire post. Look, fool: I explicitly spelled out in my original message (which means either that you didn't read it and are thus a jackass, or you missed it, in which case you have the reading comprehension of an ant) IDM READERS ARE NOT YOUR AVERAGE APHEX FANS. If so many Aphex/Autechre fans listen to No-U-Turn, why does Aphex sell 50-100 thousand copies, and No-U-Turn can't sell out editions of 2000? Your average Aphex fan just doesn't have the time/inclination to look beyond the "big names" (I know plenty of these people) of Autechre, and (as I said) maybe plug/mu-ziq/black dog.
