I still meet very few people who have heard of the big IDM artists, except for RDJ. I live in North London too.

Most of the trendy types in the bay area that I've met seem to be really into Kid 606, Matmos, Funkstorung, and the standard Mouse on Mars/Aphex/Autechre thing. I know Matmos is from here - is Kid 606? --- Ben Kirkley <ben.kirkley@displaypost.co.uk> wrote:

No, actually. If the explosion of IDM is turning you off, come to Springfield, MO. where just the other day, a passenger in my car said that "this sounds like an Atari game" with some disgust in his voice in reference to Go Plastic. There are many places it has not caught on for sure! John P.S. the said passenger didn't realize that I took his comment about the Atari game like a compliment :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

well that's a false impression the reason why people eventuelly realize that IDM is interesting is that they didn't even know that music existed before... in your world, IDM gets widespreadly known... but in fact, 99% of the people have never heard a single song of IDM. a year ago i didn't even know that Aphex Twin or Squarepusher existed... and i hated techno music generally... but one day i tried (because i heard about Aphex Twin on the radio) with napster... and then i was adicted :) so don't forget that most people don't know this music, that's why you get the impression that "one day the realize it's cool".

Well I dunno I wasn't saying it was a bad thing. But I am from Michigan and it just seems like all of a sudden everyone I know and people I don't are all into IDM all of a sudden. It could just be that I didn't notice but it seems like since Autechre played at DEMF everyone thinks it's just the cool thing to listen to now. Just like for a while there was a big jungle trend here and then it was cool to like Detroit techno and how if you like happy hardcore people think you're ridiculous. It's just blowing up here really fast. Don't get me wrong I think it's great it's about time people were listening to music with depth it's just kind of weird how all of a sudden it's just "popular" or whatever...

I haven't been following this thread, so if I say something which has been said or drop in a non-sequitor, I'm at the mercy of the list (and we all know neither sin has been committed here in the past). I find it's REALLY easy to fall into our little sub-genre pockets and "lose context" with the wider population of music consumers; as a result we start to believe that Autechre/Aphex ,etc. are names commonly dropped in your average household. Probably being a tad older than your average list-person, I've fallen victim to and seen this through ALL kinds of music fashion through the years. It's especially easy for me as I rarely do "real world" shopping anymore nor do I mess with the radio much at all. You hear something on a commercial or have some contact with a few like-minded individuals and start to think that the whole world is anxiously awaiting Slag Boom Van Loon So Soon or something (not to say YOU are guilty of this). I'm forever trapesing (when I DO these days) into record stores and assuming the counter-jockeys are going to speak my language if they "look the part" or have something palatable spinning and appear to be getting into it - and I'm forever reacquainted with the reality that MOST people have no idea as to the nature of IDM - or whatever odd subgenre/fad/fashion might be your obsession. I'm also often guilty of making the category mistake that it's the "youth" who are more hip/receptive to stylistic innovation/coloring outside the lines/whatever when it comes to music. And I'm more often than not greeted with the reality that MANY off-the-road music buyers are many times people like me...in my mid-40s, married and long-time music geeks who have WIDE musical horizons (at least relatively wide, next to radio guided listeners. Excuse the stereotypes, please :-). I'm well aware that IDM-l is predominately populated by mid- 20s males, but I think there are a good deal of people who you might not expect to be into the genre - and conversely, many MORE whom you might expect to be listening, but who are miles away and will probably not venture much closer. I just don't see IDM riding a popularity crest in the near future in terms of a broad picture. Lots of people making the music SEEM (note stress) often to be impelled to stay beyond the ken of what many people consider listenable. At least I see a bit of elitism involved in the whole venture. It is an interesting process watching the whole tension between the predominant, accepted trends in music and the maverick, oppositional ones. Eventually, the oppositional gets (to some measure) absorbed and becomes dominant. Although I can see some IDM *influences* emerging in popular trends, I'm betting that the "inner core" stuff will just become more obscure. Whatever.

I think it's like skateboarding. In the earlier days, when Tony Hawk first was recognized as an icon, it became popular. Then it died out for a while and then cause of things like Warp Tour, it became popular again. So, I guess what I am saying is that I agree that it goes in cycles. I know a few who like RDJ, some who may have heard of Autechre, but over all, the people who know the music the most are my circle of friends. I don't think it is "trendy", at least not yet. It could be potentially inevitable, especially if they keep writting such catchy tunes like they do. I don't know, just a thought. on 7/4/01 11:50 PM, michelle at girl@propeller.nu wrote:

It being trendy doesn't have to mean the genre's icons getting more recognition. It usually means that more and more influences of the genre seap into the mainstream...Britney Spears using a Nord Modular on het next single? Stuff like that :) After the mainstream public warmed to some of the sounds, some artists will pop-up out of the scene. There could also be 1 artist that sets the train in motion, but IDM being a 'genre' as diverse as it is, it'll probably be a more subtle process. Pop-producers seeking inspiration will find there's a new world of music they've been ignoring...

Oh, yes, you're right. IDM is becoming trendy by two ways: a) IDM musicians producing pop artists (mark bell is the first example that comes to mind) and b) pop-producers getting influenced by IDM musicians. There are many pop tracks influenced by IDM and other non-commercial electronic music, take the vocals off Madonna's "Drowned World" and you'll get a typical BoC track. Or "American Pie" without vocals would sound like Bochum Welt.

If A, then B, does not constitute if B, then A. I didn't say what you just implied in the first sentence. What I said was that because of the Tony Hawks recognition, it became popular. I was not suggesting that in order for IDM to be considered "trendy", performers like RDJ or AE had to be famous. I was merely focusing on the fact that the trends we encounter come and go. Like you said, right now, the trend is that producers of big name artist like Missy Elliot, Britney Spears, etc. are all into this "IDM" sound. Well, maybe not "all", but a good number of producers. Granted, this has caused grand exposure for this kind of music, but I don't think that anyone listening to Missy Elliot would say, "this sounds like Aphex Twin", or whatever. I don't think that half of the people out there listening to these songs and commercials have a clue of what "IDM" even means, Intellegent Dance Music.

With the DEMF and Ford Motor Company sponsoring it, with the sharp influence that Mass media has on the minds of many as to what's "cool"(especially in America), coupled with the increased use of IDM "types" of music in commercials, it is becoming in-style to listen to electronic music. Why even in this barn-town-of-a-state I have noticed an upsurge in electronic music venues around town.

I've noticed this too, though I don't think it's a new phenomenon. Music critics love dropping these names and others, because it makes them look trendy and credible, and defuses criticism that they never like anything, or that what they like is just rehashing old stuff. I'm sure it became very hip to like Stravinsky after riots broke out at his performances. I wax and wane on music criticism...for a while I enjoy reading particular reviews and then later I get bored with the pretientiousness of it all. I enjoy reading Wire at the moment because the writers don't seem too worried about what the readers think and aren't forced into stupid rating schemes.

Well, that's OK too. I was into Autechre for a few years since I read an interview with them, then someone said my sound experiements sounded kinda Aphex Twin so I bought an Aphex Twin CD. Then I was reading Sound on Sound and they had an interview with Guy Sigsworth, who does some work for Madonna. He mentioned Oval, and I thought they sounded interesting, and then a month later I saw an issue of Wire with Oval prominently mentioned on the cover and realised that it was a magazine devoted to weird music (I had always thought it was just for jazz aficionados or something). Discovering that experimental/intelligent stuff had a much bigger listener base than I had thought led to me turning up on this list (so now you can blame Madonna if you don't like my posts).

I doubt Britney would notice if a Nord Modular was used on her next single...in a recent interview I had with her...I asked her what she thought of the whole electronica/IDM thing...her response: "Hee hee...look at my boobs...aren't they the IDMest chunks of flesh you've ever seen...???" And you know what...she was right... :) RoNAn P.S.

What I really want to hear is a studio duet between Mariah Carey and Aphex Twin. Mariah Carey makes Britney Spears look like Alberta Einstein. On being told of the death of the King of Jordan last year, she described it as a 'great loss to basketball'. Anig Browl _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I've heard similar comments from a lot of people about electronic music when I play something weird at them. It makes me wonder how much influence video games sound tracks have had on techno. I remember listening/watching Commodore 64 demos in the late 80s which were pretty trancey, and I'm really sorry I wasn't more clued in at that time. Video game music has always been a big thing for me, I can still hum themes from favorite old arcade games and of course the sound effects are a big inspiration. My favorite music (admittedly cheesy) is the theme from 'Super Locomotive', though 'Battle Zone' had a cool minimal charm. So, I guess I'm asking what's the IDM-est videogame sountrack (ducks for cover). Anig Browl _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

That's DJ Shadow. Shit you not. I have it on .mp3 somewhere. Killer little ditty, ne? Incidentally, the original version of that commercial, first aired during Survivor, after the Superbowl, I think, had a section where this guy was standing in the street, and appeared to do a standing leap over a car that was driving by. He jumped high enough to clear the car, but in reality, the car was slightly to the side of him. So ... in true Darwin Awards form, some jackass tried it with a real car. Errrr-KACHUNK. I believe they took that part out of the collage. People are stupid. Fantastic commercial, though, yeah?

I'm interested to see how the new Aphex "drukqs" release will play into all this. Windowlicker was a step in the the [more widespread acceptance] direction. Given continued "progress" in that manner and a full fledged hyping by mtv2, it could definitely make an appearance on the radar of people not normally exposed_to/interested_in IDM. progress was in quotes, so just shoot me in the kneecaps instead of the face. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

"Video games don't affect kids. I mean, if video games affected us as kids, we'd all be sitting around in dark rooms eating magic pills and listening to electronic music..." Heh. OK, my all time favorite video game sound (there were a bunch in that Shadow / Reebok commercial piece) is Mix Master Mike, off of Anti-Theft Device, forget the name of the song, track 3 on the CD, I think. "instead, turn your radio up as loud as it will go ... " (which I always do) and it BLASTS the character intro/warp sound from Joust. Front and center. I play that little interlude in clubs sometimes ... always makes people really stop and forget about their drinks. Defender sounds are everywhere, too.
