i said something about idm the other night, and a friend who pays very little attention to music asked me what the hell idm is. so, instead of going into a long, convoluted discourse on the genre, i just said "it's dance music that you can't dance to." and so i'm wondering about how others might describe idm or emo or prog or any other genre "in a nutshell" like that. . .

Not you. The genres.

IDM: The sound of a nervous system suffering a segmentation fault
Emo: Cat Stevens, James Taylor and Emo Phillips as a Green-Day tribute band.
Prog: Breaking wind for 45 minutes...with a 13/7 time signature.

The emo must be white man's blues.
