Hello,
I love IDM in many of it's guises, but I find Venetian Snares (& the like) too scary, too disturbing, too aggressive. Big deal, you might say. But I'm just wondering where I fell off the "hardcore" wagon. In my youth, I would be front and centre at shows such as Motorhead, Black Sabbath, and many other really aggressive acts, loving every minute.
So, for you who enjoy the more hardcore electronica - are you young and carefree, or forever committed to noize, or enduring it for it's artistic merit, or what? Another question - if you have various friends over, would put Venetian Snares on?
Just looking to provoke conversation.
Cheers,
Martin
