intelligent music is something that strays from formulas and does something totaly original i guess....

hey i have an 'intelligent idea' why not start a seperate thread


Posted by pkcRAISTLIN on Apr-27-2007 06:11:

all music is formulaic. its what separates music from random sounds.

Paradigm is an intelligent piece of electronic music. Call it trance call it whateva the fuck u want. As a guitarist in an indie band I appreciated the complexity of the minot chord progression in this track. The octave step up after the 3rd build up blew me away. Random sounds...maybe. Intelligent formulation. Fuck yes. And yes Gumble, its beer time.

I wouldn't know any trance clubs now, nor really care. Ask Anomyst?


Oh im sorry.. I thought we were talking about 2007 here. Give me a minute whilst I jump in my time machine and whip back to 1999 so I can debate with you on the merits of your outdated ideals.


quote:
"Dance" music is hardly intelligent to begin with. But it does have its merits, and you can have an enjoyable time listening to it. Trance has no depth to it, thats why I think people move on. Theres only so many ways to have a "hands in the air" breakdown now isn't there?


See above... Trance does not only consist of the above 'formula' these days mate. As a genre it has advanced a great deal over the last few years. Many artists now encompass Progressive, Minimal, Techno, Electro, Rock & heavily classical influences in their music.

I have plenty of 'trance 'that has a great deal of depth, emotionally and in its production.


quote:
I think I would qualify more educated than most here in terms of music, because Ive taken time to really explore a whole range of genres. I mean electronic music is only half my passion anyway. Im out every weekend pretty much checking out a local band or artist. So to label me not educated enough to form a solid argument, is pretty stupid.


I was referring to your knowledge of 'trance' as a genre today. Which seems to be sorely lacking. Not calling your entire musical knowledge into disrepute, that would be stupid, as I have no idea who you are.


quote:
Well, you are wrong. I used to love trance and progressive. I spent all my money on decks and records and went to every DJ I could.


Good on you, so did a lot of other people in Trance's honeymoon period. Then they jumped ship at the first sign of its popularity declining.



quote:
I used to jump up and down and defend against people who slagged either trance or prog. You being into trance for so long only provides me with an image of a very boring individual who is easily satisfied with whatever his DJ gods serve up, year after year.


I wouldnt say that I am easily satisfied. In fact you wont find many promoter/dj's who are harder to please. In any case, there is no need to delve into what I am and am not to defend your position.

i really do think gumble has some merit in his argument. nothing to do with nichol's merit as a producer, good on him. well done mate and full credit to you, however it seems as though the majority of people who do jump into dance music at the trance level do move on to different other styles after the initial grace period.

interesting discussions as long as we can keep away from slagging each other personally you bunch of ****s.


Posted by Deeman on Apr-27-2007 07:56:

none of my friends have done this after 3-4 years of liking trance. tbh i think this has applied more to djs who try to conform to an "in" sound/genre in an effort to score gigs.


and gumble lol talking about trance from 97/98? no wonder you have no idea.

I would agree, based on my personal experience.

I've been in the scene for about a year now and I've loved trance since the start and I still do now. However, my friends who jumped in with me have all moved onto the harder genres.
While I enjoy a bit of the harder stuff now and then, ultimately I prefer to listen to trance. Which they call "boring" and "soft" and I tell them to "get fucked".
Some of my friends still love trance and don't really enjoy harder genres, but most have gone from enjoying progression and, what I consider depth of music, into instant gratification.

Having said that, a friend of mine who was into the harder genres for years, and still is, is now starting to appreciate trance again.

People should never forget their roots.

If someone has a REAL PASSION for music they wouldnt 'just stop' liking ONE genre that they've been listening to for who knows how long & jumping onto another-forgetting all about the other genre. THIS I DO NOT UNDERSTAND! INSTEAD THEY'D APPRECIATE ALL SOUNDS!

Ive seen people out that used to be so into trance & now just like house, yeah fair enough but really those people never had a true passion for trance in the first place!
