I hereby vote we call this list the >sometimes-groove-ridden-electronic-but-also-acoustic-by-turns-beatwise-but- >not-beat-dependent-don't-call-it-electronica list. i second that motion... but i vote we call this list (and the music) what we always called it: IDM. and by that i mean the acronym IDM rather than 'intelligent techno' or 'intelligent dance music'- 'idm' is something in itself, like 'rock' or 'jazz' and expresses the essence of the music prefectly... peace... :spacecake:
