Hi All! I'm a little confused. I love idm, that's the best music for me now. Though I know so little especially when it comes to musicians and record labels. Could you please help me to get the list of most prominent and interesting idm artists and/or labels mainly involved. My collection includes: Autechre, Aphex Twin, Cylob, Squarepusher, Seefeel, Mouse on Mars, Alec Empire, Amon Tobin, Mike&Rich... It's not that I would like to know only about strictly similar music but I'm open for any idm input you might find worth mentioning. I realise that such a request is kinda perky but if at least a couple of people here take attention I will have the names to put in the mail orders right away. Thankx in advance.
