not a chance in hell that's ever going to happen, but hey, it's nice to dream.
as for the 'd' in idm... i have to say i rather like the idea of dance
music if it goes beyond the overkill club reference. there are many,
many ways to dance. some of which don't even involve you getting up
from that chair. arythmic stuff can be a lot of fun, & bless it for not
being freaking 4/4.
