Listening to someone caterwauling over the 'Amen' breakbeat fed through
distortion on every song they've done for the last 10 years is a physical
and emotional experience.
It's very Punk and Hardcore to dis white middle-class males because white
middle-class males are considered sacred and protected by society in
general, and nobody in their right mind would dare to stereotype and mock
white middle-class males unless they were very, very... Punk.
Now that I realize that IDM musicians are going to be the new whipping
boys for all of the in-crowd types, I am going to throw away all of my
Autechre and Monolake cds and buy "organic" and "emotional" electronic
music like Atari Teenage Riot's.
I wonder if she lumps Kid606 in that category? That would be ironic.
yay!
