'Intelligent' Dance Music
 

How many of you enjoy the likes of Orbital, Autechre/Gescom, Bola, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, even Bjork, etc?
It's pretty much 100% crazy. I made everybody watch the Windowlicker video, and some of my friends were just disgusted.
Any comments?

Aphex Twin's Hangable Auto Bulb EP has finally been reissued (and is available now)! This is the beginning of the hardcore jungle thing he continued with 'I Care Because You Do'

They are great. I'd also add Boards of Canada and Global Communication/Reload into that list although they're bit more ambientish.

Me heart Bjork. :)

IDM for short.

Max Graham, love the Harmonic mixing.

The Black Dog Music for Real Airports or Spanners
Ratatat s/t
Four Tet Rounds (reissued this week with a bonus live disc)
µ-Ziq Royal Astronomy

xxyyxx and crystal castles are mah favorites.

Y'all need to be checking out The Flashbulb, Wisp, and Bexarametric for some incredible IDM/Drill & Bass.
