Women and the IDMz

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

Firstly, I have absolutely zero stats to back up this, but my feeling is that most women simply don't 'get' idm, or electronic music in general. And it's not just on the listening side, but the production side too. 99% of producers and listeners seem to be male.

 

Have any of you found it ever so slightly frustrating that the lady in your life does not appreciate the music you cherish in the same way that you do?

 

I realise there are female posters here who love the idmz, I'm not having a dig in general, just curious as to why it's so male-oriented.

Its a brotherhood thing. When AFX invented IDM he was sort of an outcast/recluse, he wasn't into women he was into male bonding and stuff like that. He would gather all his male friends and play music for them, he would also wrestle them naked in the rain to the sounds of Autechre's windwind.

All joking aside, i don't know where are you getting that "99%", i have been to loads of "IDM" gigs and there were plenty of ladies.

Women have smaller bodies so they also have smaller brains.

again, i don't really hate skrillex as much as i hate the people that think that sort of music has any sort of integrity. i try to be open minded, and a lot of the time i employ a "well, each to his/her own" attitude towards personal preferences such as music taste and who knows, maybe it is original in its own way, sorta like a drawing by an autistic kid.

And the frontal lobe is not as developped so it's only natural that they can't appreciate one of the most advanced art forms.

It's called a cold room.

 

I don't have a cellar.

If this board proves anything with all its "girls" threads. Its not that women dont get IDM, its that you dont get women.

Alot of girls that like IDM have mental problems of some sort. I know some that are completely normal but they're also taken. That's why I'll end my life alone with a right hand bigger than my torso.
