Tricky to dance to IDM though. Tends to empty out floors. Within the context of four to the floor, danceable electronic music techno i think techno is more experimental.

There's definitely something to say about the fact that techno music is still largely aimed at clubs. Its music to be danced to. Much as i love autechre and co. IDM doesn't really play the same sort of role.
