Hey Kent, why dont you unclamp your sphincter a couple clicks, whatever the hell thats supposed to mean. Everyone corresponding to the aforementioned topic was not only discussing IDM as a genre of sorts, (which to me it IS, so it is), but trying to expound on that. I'm glad you have some artists that you like, we all do too, so lets talk about them and not try to be overly pretentious.
Bye.
