What makes IDM "intelligent" dance music? Do you need a mathematics degree or something to make it?
>>71727097
It's just a bullshit term retards on /mu/ think they're special for listening to.
Autechre and Aphex Twin hated the label.
>>71727097
Its insecure fedorafags wanting to pretend they are superior after listening to EDM, which they always shit on
>>71727187
Who coined the term?
>>71727199
Are EDM and IDM that different at the end of the day?
>>71727292
I guess the production styles are different, so you cpuld argue that they can be consodered seperate genres, however the prefix "intelligent" has absolutely no fucking merit
>tfw to intelligent to listen to anything other than intelligent dance music
>>71727385
Still sounds less stupid than "braindance" if you ask me.

The term "IDM" is said to have originated in the United States in 1993 with the formation of the "IDM list", an electronic mailing list originally chartered for the discussion of music by a number of prominent English artists, especially those appearing on a 1992 Warp Records compilation called Artificial Intelligence.[9]

I dont think its possible to invent a cringier term than braindance
>>71727416
Or you could call it bu the genres they are.
Ambient techno or breakcore or future jazz etc
EDM and IDM are dumb umbrellas for totally unrelated genres therein

Braindance sounds like some kind of drug or something.
But there's plenty of even cringier artist names. Princess Nokia, for instance.
It's a bullshit term anyway, since it pretty much betrays the "D" in the name.
"EDM" = Monstercat and minecraft remixes and The Chainsmokers
Electronic dance music or just "dance music" = /bleep/ stuff like house and techno and jungle
IDM = Aphex and Autechre
