replace grunge?!?! Didn't grunge die out a few years ago?!?!? I don't think 'so-called' mainstream America is ready for "Electronica". America is STILL just too damm closed minded. My friends have no interest in IDM, but hell my friends that's a whole another story. On another weird note, Rolling Bones magazine listed FSOL's Dead Cities as one of their top albums of the year!

...electronica?

How was "electronica" defined? If some form of electronigrunge were theorized as the NextBig(No)Thing, it's a plausible scenario. The resulting bombast will probably be as musically, artistically, and aesthetically valuable as most grunge, and will probably embody the same stylistic interchangability among "artists". The notable exception is the Autechre University of Found Sound. If, on the other hand, someone is suddenly predicting that Nambient (Namlookesque ambient) will suddenly hit the U.S. Top 40, it's quite doubtful. As for more danceable idm (an oxymoron?), anything is possible. 3
