the last (latest, far from final) post on the subject:
quoted 2 lines The IDM list has never been dedicated exclusively,> The IDM list has never been dedicated exclusively, > let alone primarily, to the Aphex Twin.
the IDM definition page:
quoted 1 line Initially, the idea was to create a list dedicated to the Aphex Twin> Initially, the idea was to create a list dedicated to the Aphex Twin
and another definition from the page by Mixmaster Morris... "[Intelligent Dance Music] means the opposite of stupid hardcore. And of ***commercial dance music.***" (So much for Bono Vox.) so allow me to edit the following:
quoted 4 lines 'Narrow minded' - hmmm. In a world where one person is capable,> >'Narrow minded' - hmmm.

into this: 'Narrow minded' - hmmm. In a world where one person is capable, given resources, of manufacturing an entire subculture around themselves (the initial *conception* of this list as one dedicated to RDJ would *seem* to be an example of *such a cultural dynamic* in concreto) -- the song remains the same. -- and that isn't licence to start any babble on zeppelin, either. Except for this sad humor of the day: What's the difference between Rush Limbaugh and the Hindenburg? One's an exploding Nazi hot-air balloon, and the other is, well, a zeppelin. begging your forgiveness if i myself am now guilty of filling your mailbox with non-IDM noise (but hey, it's saturday; never many IDM posts on saturdays anyway) signifier over signified signing off
