Spice girls? Well, I guess someone's got to like them. Sorry about the "DEFINE IDM" letter I sent earlier, I didn't expect the response I got. I have read/scanned the web about thsi stuff, but I thought it might be cool if everyone attempted to define it for themselves on the list. We would not only see what we feel IDM is, but we would see how it matches with everyone else's view. So, for I guess the second time (please) would everyone (if interested) attempt to define IDM. As a concept, a music, a genre, anything, really. Here goes my attempt IDM... Music for the masses that is not designed soley for the purpose of dance, or for lyrics, or for market value but instead is developed as and expression of a sheer passion for life, music and motion; Dance music with unadulterated drive and purity. Besides that, does anyone know anything about the denon 2200ff cd players. As in price, usability, worth (which, not suprisingly has nothing to do with price). Oh, and has anyone heard of Meat Beat Manifesto- their double CD, "Subliminal Sandwich" I hear it's good and have ordered it from BMG. Good? Bad?? Info SVP Is it even IDM? More info.. If anyone out there would care to enlighten me: Is the prodigy officially IDM, how aboust Carl Cox? I'm sorry, there are too many questions at once ****************** ANDREW T Barker barker@cyg.net ******************
