The person who started the list made it up, as far as I know. Through circumstances that I don't understand, the list's name became more well known than any other name for the music that happens to be discussed on here. That's where the genre name use of "IDM" came from. - cutups PS: i've got a new d&b mix online that might appeal to some idmers http://pbs.chemlab.org/audio/cutup/cutups_fuzemix_feb2004_128.mp3 tracklisting lali puna - together in electric dreams - morr music ltj bukem - music - glr4 the invisible man - the bell tune - good looking records deep blue - helicopter tune - moving shadow tom and jerry - dancer - tom and jerry drum origins - oracle - fokuz peter k - trefusis point remix - breakbeatscience plaid - marry - warp bluemarten - storyteller (blame remix) - deep structure future prophecies - plastic dreams - moving shadow soundmurderer - stylee - rephlex rew ep1 dj rap feat. hooligan - lick shot - proper talent the dream team - stamina - suburban base soundmurderer - stick up (quick mix) - omeko kid606 - who wah kill sound - tigerbeat6/ipecac repeater - collision repair specialist - damage enduser - kelsey the taxidermist (enduser vs atomly remix) - feed the machine --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

are you serious? it wasn't originated in reviews or press releases? who started the list? are they still around? d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Hah. This thread is the first time the topic has come up without an old timer chiming it to explain tings. http://music.hyperreal.org/lists/idm The name came from the Warp "Artificial Intelligence" compilation. The incestuous relationship between the music and the mailing list was evident early on -- the second AI compilation's CD booklet was decorated with posts from the IDM list. I've not been on the list since the beginning, but I've been around for 10 years (!) and there are a few other longtimers around still. I don't think anyone is crazy about IDM becoming a term of art. It's kind of embarrassing. IDM really is a mailing list, not a genre. But if you want to know where the mailing list came from, listen to: AFX "Surfing on Sine Waves" Orb "UF Orb" Orbital "Brown Album" Muziq "Bluff Limbo" Black Dog "Bytes" Drexciya EPs 1-4 AI I AI II None of this stuff would really fit with most of what is being discussed now, but that's fine too, because IDM is a mailing list, not a genre ;-) On Mon, 1 Mar 2004, chthonic streams wrote:
