Now I remember why I didn't like last.fm. They seemed to have great difficulty parsing artists with identical names:
https://www.last.fm/music/Darren+Tate
Even now, though the Overview description acknowledges there are two Darren Tate's, the site still has the two artists concatenated into one listing. One can only imagine the mess for a band name like 'Satan'.
Grump, grump, grumpidy grump.....

I guess you are old, haha. Last.fm was cool around 2003-2005. All kids scrobbled back then - I scrobble to this day, lol. I love statistics and I have statistics of my music listening habits of the last 15 years of my life. Is it useful? No. Do I love it? Yeah.
I've been familiar with last.fm since that time but never made the site a habit. Always preferred discogs for straight up information and my own catalog for listening. That left last.fm without a purpose, to me at least.
I'm all for statistics. Numbers, lists, percentages, graphs, spreadsheets, all fun stuff. Scrobble? Not a clue. As made up words go, it's just odd. As my wife commented when I asked her, "It sounds like boogers".

Man, I'm old. Learned of two new 'words' today. "Emosh" and now "scrobble". I can confidently, grumpily assert that the world needed neither.

great, an ambient album
yawns in anticipation*
Ambient has become one of those many junk terms which are bandied around without any real context. Kinda like calling Sonic Youth 'drone'. A noisy, feedback-y 3 minute alt rock song is not drone.

AND SOME TRACKS ON MOT WAS PURE SHITE!!!
Welllll,
1) not an album. album length ep, yes, but still not an album.
2) some suck, (IYO), does not equate to all suck.
Hate to get all zealous, but seriously, when have ae ever dropped a suck album?

Which previous ae album sucked? Not, 'it sucked at first but then it clicked', but actually sucked for all time?
So, that.

They said similar things in previous 'views, me recognized the references (the landing one owes to Oversteps intro description)
Shiiet, this for real https://www.moneysupermarket.com/
A SIGN for sure that AE was never anything but a Ponzi scheme. Sean and Rob got the cazh, we got left holding the bA6.

This meme culture now kinda sucks, I know banter and all that, but imagine long-time music artists creating serious stuff just to see 300 memes about it, not cool. I'm expecting a serious transition from idiotic memes into forum jizzing how awesome the SIGN material is, really wish them to see that.
I strongly suspect all but the uber tender and ultra sensitive get a good laugh from the memes. I see nothing pointed in the SIGN themed memes and I doubt Sean or Rob do either. At the very least they might be inspired to apply judicious application of the Patrick Stewart emoji.
Truthfully, what are you seeing in the memes that is other than a lighthearted expression of appreciation coupled with a bit of anticipation?

I must admit, my understanding of what constitutes IDM has been expanded today

Keanu is actually IDM. Look it up in the watmmanual, which contains these things called rules.
"Keanu" produces no hits in the Guidelines. watmmanual produces no hits on the forum other than your post. I'm more than happy to be schooled on this subject, (and more than a little intrigued), but you will need to provide a link or some other additional information that I might understand this Keanu/IDM link. Quite frankly, my ears don't hear it.

Who woulda thunk Keanu would have such a bastion of support here at watmm. Viva la difference. Ernest has his fans. Pauley Shore has his fans. I suppose Keanu deserves some as well.

It was nineFly that did it for me. In fact, all of NTS still has my mind blown but a few tracks like nineFly, t1a1, e0 and shimripl casual almost always get my jelly all a quivering.
