tried listening to it and my brain imploded in on itself, I will remain listening to stupid dance music for the forseeable future!!!

Great top artists! Autechre #1 and no trash like betaphex twins or bored in canada

best genre ever

Why? Just why?

i got the poo on me!

i don't like this as a genre, however it's a pretty okay descriptive of this wave of artists from Warp, Planet Mu, others inspired by them, etc. If you tell me you make IDM i won't know what it sounds like, but will sort of know what it's going for in relation to other electronic music genres

>intelligent >dance Seems contradictory to me. Intelligent people are quiet. They usually don't move much. It's the stupid ones who need to shake their bodies a lot.

Get over it.

fun =)

i hate everyone in this shoutbox!

don't be that guy

бля.

IDM? How about you DM some girls and stop listening to Venetian Snares

idm/ambient artist pictures try not to be greyscale challenge

genuinely one of the most interesting genres ever. the way every song gets more complex as you listen and ends in a very rich layered sound is incredible

Hello fellow Geniusus!

i don’t mind music

i hate everyone in this shoutbox!

its called intelligent dance music yet it makes me go stupid

edm but with an i at the start instead

Why can’t it just be called Experimental Dance or something

love the term, love the music

"Experimental techno" is a nice alternative to use.

So my favourite music genre has the worst fucking genre name ever. And "braindance" is horrible too.

failed IQ test and had to switch genres

introvert dance music

All dance music was unintelligent before the 90s

hate the term love the music

nah i only listen to stupid dance music

i feel so special listening to idm for some reason

it's braindance, you fucking morons

Unfortunately named funny beep boop noises

idm = idiot music

Greetings, intelligent people.

im smarter and better than everyone

I physically cannot say the acronym in its entirety without crying, it sounds too pretentious and whenever I try to explain why it's called intelligent I come across as even more pretentious!!!! is there a synonym for IDM!!!!!

idiotic dumb morons

Just came here to say I loathe idm as a term

intricate death mambo

I LOVE IDM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This makes you smarter. If you listen to IDM you get smarter because that is what it is. Intelligent music. Music for smart people.
