Excellent- I knew I had an ally out there. This list represents
tracks with a high potential for *piloerection*: that's the clinical
term for when the hairs of the arms, legs, and neck prickle and raise
when that perfect melody happens in music. Or, just whatever makes you
say, "My God, that's brilliant"

Virtually everything by Global Communication and Reload (a few
exceptions)
As exhaustive as that list feels, I think there is more. Many of the
items listed are probably standard issue of virtually every user on
this list- unfortunately, my geographical location prevents me from
basically everything IDM [I've never seen a live electronic music
performance, rave, or even met one more person aside from myself in
this area that has been into IDM as long or as heavily as I am :(]. So,
forgive me if there are no underground or exclusive discoveries within
the list; my collection of 250+ IDM discs is robust thanks to the
Internet but nowhere near where it should be. Bounce back with your
faves, I'm all for it!
if anyone is familiar with the SW Missouri area, suggest ways I can
remedy my IDM isolation through record store recommendations, raves,
nearby performances, new online mail-order sites, etc.
I've found a home with the IDMers
