I guess I see it more as a step in perhaps what is a thousand mile journey. rather than a complete revolution unto itself. Also, I have to complain about the term "IDM" it really is a lame term. I mean, who the hell can "dance" to squarepusher? maybe IM or just GM for "Good Music" would be better. Hopefully it will evolve beyond its association with dance clubs and techno and bleep bloop computer noises which are all just a part of the novelty of the genre and will truly evolve into the future music which will be amazing and which can touch the souls of all. david turgeon wrote:
