Intelligent dance music (commonly abbreviated as IDM) is a style of electronic music originating in the early 1990s, defined by idiosyncratic experimentation rather than specific genre constraints. It emerged from the culture and sound palette of electronic and rave music styles such as ambient techno, acid house, Detroit techno and breakbeat; it has been regarded as better suited to home listening than dancing. Prominent artists associated with it include Aphex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, Venetian Snares, Boards of Canada, Telefon Tel Aviv, ฮผ-Ziq, the Black Dog, the Future Sound of London, and Luke Vibert.

Thanks a lot! The IDM subreddit has a "flavour" for youtube. I thought "mix" fits best since there are barely any official mixes out there, at least not in my musical world, which means if one is posted it's most likely by a bedroom dj. With "self" i'd think it's original music, which, even if a mix is technically solid, still isn't really valid :)
