No noob. it's all about patterns and such. i'm personally not much into but a friend explained that sometimes IDM producers use mathematical equations to create songs, sound weird i know. BT's This Binary Universe is largely considered IDM, for example.
But really good IDM artists will use concepts like an elements half-live and systematically program a song to run like a metaphor of that elements structure, then after the breakdown eliminate half of the sounds used etc... i'm really not an expert on this, i just have weird friends. |
:eek: holy... |

check out Autechre (spell?), my friend used to get me high on some dank and roll around with him listening to that . it was pretty crazy.
IDM = good stoner music. |

"More melody than beat?" Not really. Some IDM, like Autechre's later stuff, hardly has any melody at all.
If you can say that IDM is "about" anything, it's about meticulous, detailed engineering / production that, if you know anything about how electronic music gets made, screams "dilettantes need not apply" in a way that most "EDM" just doesn't. Generating sounds that are really "otherworldly" and morph in strange or surprising ways, stuff that tickles your ears and makes you want to listen again just for the sound of it rather than for tension / release or a great melody, although some IDM does those very well, too.
I'm a big fan. :) |
