I went IDM via Download's III and the > Latter Haujobb. albums. hmmmm.. i checked out aphex twin and autechre on a friends recommendation... been hooked since, but, i've found that its led me *back* to the more 'industrial' 'expiremental' roots i started at,,, recent music i've been into includes david toop, vvm, farmers manual, coil (although coil has been an interest of mine for over 10 ten years... just funny how it all led back there =), shinjuku filth, p. schutze... all of this stemmed off from 'idm' for me, but the music itself, quite often, seems more appropriately dubbed 'industrial' (at least in my perception of the word, which has nothing at all to do with 99% of the bands discussed on r.m.i....) in the end, i prefer to just refer to music by the author... 'autechre are autechre'... 'david toop is david toop'... i find this to be a much more acturate discription of the music, but then does very little for a review, huh? ^xxxx@xxxxx.xxx^ [icq: 12645306] http://www.sonic.net/~brap/ [blackdog][v/vm][jamesbernarddiscography]...etc etc etc sfwd.dyn.ml.org [occasional web.irc.ftp.etc]]] chris g. 1547 boston court #7, santa rosa, ca 95405
