what i meant was: i didn't really know if there was a sign actually denoting "IDM" inside the physical store...i'm curious to know if this is the case... at soundwaves here in houston, things are starting to finally get better separated (aside from everything being in "dance"), although it's more annoying, b/c say i'm looking for squarepusher...do i look under the general "techno/dance", or under "drum n' bass"? (lucky for me, soundwaves can't decide either, and stocks SP in both).......why do i fear that this is going to turn into a "why do we need different subgenres, it's all just music" thread that everything in alt.music.techno seems to sink into? -brad ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Re: (idm) The 'I' in 'IDM' Author: xxx@xxxxx.xxx at INTERNET Date: 6/19/98 3:15 PM On Friday, 19-Jun-98, Brad Berger wrote [about Re: (idm) The 'I' in 'IDM']: > actually, ModernMusic has a section entitled "Ambient / IDM" on their > web page (www.ModernMusic.com), but i don't know if this extends into > their actual store or not... it does.. their mailorder location stocks ambient/idm releases.. IDM being stuff like skam, markant, musik aus strom, warp, rephlex, etc. etc...
