How can you ever say something (besides a living creature) has emotion? Nothing lifeless has emotion (this is a nice debate for philosophers :), but it can trigger an emotion... Maybe some record annoys the hell out of you, and you state that it 'has no emotion'...while it can make me seriously happy when I listen to it... As I say...it's just what you get out of it.

Why do you think someone who's truly into IDM (and for the record, I also enjoy LOTS of other music ranging from jazz tot Irish Folk to classical!) is emotionally changellenged just because you get an emotion from it?!

I was into 'IDM' before I ever heard of the phrase 'IDM'...
