so been thinking...
earlier tonight i had to do some wonky stuff with my e-mail addys, and
happened across the old idm archives. most of the music that we listen
to nowadays was released in the last year or so. (well, more accurately
the idm portions of my collection) Each year, there seems to be a
certain direction of fascination or re-christening of what it takes for
something to be a well established idm album. right now we seem to be
seeing a large portion of laptop rockers sorta living it up. i'm also
seeing lots of post glitch remnants floating around in various forms
(herbert - lets all make mistakes, funkstroung, senking) where do
people see the who idm genre moving towards? are we hitting the same
point as d&b where the options we see as available to us just kinda
become rehashes of existing pieces? do we see a return to analogue as
attested to by the turntablists works of late? i guess i'm just a bit
sick of picking up another cd and hearing bits and pieces of everyone
else sorta cut up between the cracks. thoughts anyone?
