How does the past sound and what does it tell us about the future? Vasily Kotov - a musician, collector, and expert on the electronic scene - will unveil the secrets of IDM through the sound of vinyl records and his own commentary. An intellectual break with rhythm, history, and reflection on the genre's role in musical culture. What is IDM - Intelligent Dance Music? And does it really have no future, as the title of the lecture suggests? Vasily Kotov, the leader of the band «Meteorhythm», offers to explore this through vinyl. The focus will be not only on the music but also on the context - cultural, historical, and sonic. Guests can expect an authorial lecture accompanied by a live vinyl set. Instead of slides - the sound from records, instead of dates - the names of those who were at the origins of the genre and experimented with sound in the border zones between academic music, the electronic scene, and intellectual reflection. The sound of IDM is often associated with the 1990s, when artists like Aphex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, and others redefined the very notion of dance electronics. The lecture will trace how this genre developed, how it moved away from dance floors and became a soundtrack for solitary listening - and why it has almost disappeared from the spotlight in recent years. This event will be interesting for those who love deep conversations about music, appreciate analog sound, and are open to genres where the idea is more important than popularity. The evening will suit both connoisseurs and those who are just beginning to explore the experimental scene. By attending the lecture, you will hear rare recordings, have the opportunity to ask questions, and rethink the role of IDM in cultural history. This is not just a story - it is an experience in which sound helps to better understand time, people, and oneself. Entertainment in Yekaterinburg is collected on our website.
