I thought that is why it was called IDM, "INTELLEGENCE Dance Music"? At any rate, I believe that if you are going for the right reasons, it won't matter what you see, after all, you are there for the music. If you want to be visually entertained, my theory is, go watch a movie or something. These people write music, that is what they do best. If you go for any other reason, that is when you will get bored. I have been to electronic shows before and have found that going to "watch" them isn't the most exciting, but "hearing" it all live is the most exhilirating feeling I have ever gotten out of those particular artists. Just felt like I had to say something.
