The Intelligent Dance Music Mailing
List - Hosted by Hyperreal.org
ABOUT THE
LIST:
The IDM list was originally created in August of 1993 for the discussion
of music relating to Aphex Twin and Warp's early "Artificial
Intelligence" compilations. Since that time, both the list
and the range of music that is discussed on it have grown considerably.
As there is no set definition of the boundaries of "Intelligent
Dance Music", the official stance is that all opinions are
to be respected. That being said, when you declare that "Rozalla
is intelligent dance music", you should be willing and able
to back it up - not just "because it obviously is."
SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION:
The IDM list currently comes in two flavors: Original,

LIST POLICIES:
There are currently over 1600 people subscribed to the
IDM list. Try to keep your posts on topic and your arguments and
flame wars off list. Spams, get-rich-quick schemes, commercial advertising,
virus alerts, alerts and calls-to-action of a political nature,
harrassment, or any other disruptive, off-topic posts will not be
tolerated.
For the convenience of the listmembers and to ease the burden on
our server and network, some restrictions on For Sale lists and
Wanted lists (classifieds) are being enforced.Auctions should be
posted once to attract bidders, then be conducted in private thereafter.
Any other classifieds, including long sale lists, should be announced
as briefly as possible, with an invitation for interested parties
to email you directly or visit a web location to receive the full
information. It is okay to post short classifieds to the mailing
list, but they must:
1) Pertain to Intelligent Dance Music
2) Be for personal transactions, not on behalf of a business
3) Be not longer than a screenful (25 lines)
4) Not be repetitive (do not keep reposting the same items)
The IDM List is *NOT* a forum for trading illegal copies, mp3's,
bootlegs, or rare out of print material. Not only does this entirely
screw the people who's music we discuss, it is also illegal and
any intelligent person would not want their illegal requests broadcast
to 1000+ subscribers. Please take these types of transactions off-list.
Abuse of this sort will not be tolerated.
