== Etymology ==
Before seriously considering deletion of this article, the etymology of the term should be studied. It is not meant to be pejorative! The term "intelligent dance music" doesn't mean that other dance music is "dumb". IDM is an offshoot of 'EBM', or "[[electronic body music]]". While EBM is meant to "make your body dance", IDM is meant to "make your mind dance". It has always been used this way to describe the music, and has '''never''' had a pejorative meaning among artists and fans alike, in fact many fans also enjoy many other forms of dance music. The music is classified by typically ''non''-danceable beats, but complicated structures, hence the term. [[User:74.70.171.36|74.70.171.36]] 04:28, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
