i know it's real, if it wasnt it could at least be a funny hypothetical. instead you get a dude trying as hard as he can to redirect all attention towards him at a live show

 

and nu metal isnt even gonna make it got dAMn... it's follow the leader's 20th anniversary ffs

reminds me of when I saw autechre in 2015 - there was this guy at the front of the crowd in full 80s aerobic gear facing the crowd and doing step aerobics for the set. lol

 

edit: I think it was 2015, maybe 2014 I forget. I should have gotten a picture.

maybe the guy wasn't intentionally trying to attract attention to himself and just wanted to express his enjoyment of the sound of merzbow by frantically brushing his teeth, any attention attracted thus being an unintentional byproduct.

I envisage a compilation of tracks that follow this formula

 

A your B at a C concert

 

For example

 

Plucking your Eyebrows at a Venetian Snares concert

 

Could be a fun concept

I do recall a techno Jesus really going in at the Boston show. His moves were divine.

Maybe he was running late.

Uli has no chance.... butts is falling behind (heh)... living in a society is sadly losing badly... and it looks like Moths is going to be out after this round! Strange things happening here. This might be the end for many wonderfully IDM things. I just don't know how to feel about this all. :cry:

The reason for the above is because "Not posting on watmm for 2 years, but coming back to sway the vote in the 2018 most IDM contest" is winning.

 

But....

"A moth that is attracted to dark" is doing good, so its not all bad.

 

Stay tuned for Round 2, coming soon

Yeah, darkness moth is dank af.  But if I had it my way we'd finally be getting our watmm nu metal comp this year.  That's kind of been my secret wish every year this poll rolls around, but it never makes it past round 1.

FLOL I am dying just reading through this bracketology and imagining the music! Go 'Doing backflips at the club to have your gun fall out of your back pocket and go off except your gun is a laser and instead of being FBI you are signed to Warp in 1993.'!!

I need help identifying the bird, but I was in the Oregon woods today and heard a bird call that sounds like a delay pedal being shifted into a higher time division. Not sure if it's more idm or more shoegaze tho.
