I'd like to start by apologizing to the list members that I was directly rude to. I would also like to say sorry to those I may have upset inadvertently. My original question, in my opinion was a legitimate one. i had no idea that hyppereal were the first to use the words "intelligent dance music". I am fairly new to this list but have listened to "experimental" music ever since some of the first Aphex, black dog, etc... releases. After a while I started hearing people describe the music I liked as idm. I honestly just wanted to find out what we were referring to as idm these days. The next thing I know I'm arguing with people about anything and everything, Saying things I didn't even think or feel just to argue with those who apposed. Most of what I fought about had nothing to do with my original question and with every new arguement even further from getting an answer I got. I let myself get upset, said a few mean things, upset some people, looked stupid in the process, and still never got an answer. There never was "an" answer to get. To ask a large group of people the question I did is ridiculous as well as pointless. What's simple to one may be seen as genius to another. I should have known from the start that since people are all different there would be many different opinions on whose music was "intelligent" and whose was not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
