-- Do your mates like trance?
Pages (4): « 1 [2] 3 4 »
A couple like some trance, but mainly the real light uplifting stuff and then only some (mainly vocal stuff)
Otherwise no, they all like hip-hop, a few (mainly the chicks) like rnb, some rock and a few like house.
I got my brother in it, albeit hes passive about it, however he calls it trance and not techno and likes some artists most people(that arnt seriously into trance) have never heard it. But most people call it techno and dont like it. And some people that used to listen to electronica which is better than "techno" said that the level of depth is not there, that there is little you can do with "bleeps and bloops"
Nome of my friends are into trance all into rock and pop or top 30..lonely existence to be trancing on your own but at least i got my vinyls and cd collection to keep me company
mates like... people you mate with?

Alot of my friends were like that. Thing is trance, and EDM in general, can only be appreciated to its fullest in a club atmosphere with a kick ass soundsystem. I got so many of my friends into it after I dragged them to trance venues mainly commercial , ie tiesto , pvd, ferry, avb to get them started off. Now they serisouly love it, even more than Hip-Hop.

None of my mates like trance. Most of them love hardstyle and hard trance (which is a shame because I have to listen to it on a near-daily basis. 
). I have maybe two mates who love trance and another who likes it but doesn't know much about it. It sucks having nobody to talk to about Trance.
omg, you speaking for me. wow thats the exact situation im in it.
most of my friends like "hip hop & rap" stuff, one hate rap but love that cheese stuff i gave him for starting, and one of them, the melodic stuff i gave him. (shane's stuff).
its frustrating to put some tunes in the car cd, and all of them hates it.
but they can stand listening psychodelic stuff like infected mushroom,
astrix and so.
some do, some don't
surprising demograhpic eh
We r not many......
When my friends hear trance at a party they call this club,dance music
I think too manny people think "Techno" as they say is for druggies and that everyone that listens to it does X. They ask me if it gets boring and i say only if its by a crappy producer :P . I just hate it when people hate somting theyve never heard, it sucks bc it just makes us smaller. One thing i have noticed in music ever since ive been hooked is i cannot listen to "regular" music, like rock and rap beacouse it doesnt have a good rythm , melody and beat. Lyrics get old to me. Anyways around here where i live its either rock or rap. Nothing else, no pop or anything. Its truly sad

The thing is , people have no concept of trance what so ever , as a dance/electronic music overall. Hip-Hop n RnB have now taken over the charts and have become pop music..so most of people are into that..and an annoying thing is that on a supposed to be an ONLY DANCE MUSIC CHANNEL "MTV DANCE" (Sky TV), they play rnb and hip-hop as well as on 10 other channels...it is very sad,and it becomes clearer why people have no a clue what Trance music is and what Techno music is, and so on.
However,luckily, all my mates are into electronic/dance music.Some of them were into it before l met them, some of them got into it thanks to my efforts...some like Teckno and proggie stuff.Now lm working on getting my female mates into it. So far, I got them into Housy stuff,so it's getting there.
A real Trance remains an underground music, which I think is a good thing,so it would not get mixed up with pop.
A good job, that we have a few really decent local dance clubs around here where all "progressive" people gather and have a great time.
But please do not give up and don't conform to the peer pressure...it's very hard sometimes,but NOT TO WORRY we will all stick together
TRANCE is BEAUTIFUL - LET's HAVE IT ! ! ! !
BE POSITIVE & OPTIMISTIC
no.
None of them.
Surprisingly, a lot of them do now. But it's been thanks to my great efforts for them to open their minds and listen to the really good stuff, not just cheesy compilations. Alot of them now like prog and most of them like house. Trance is a more difficult task though, since to enjoy trance you pretty much have to be in a club or something like that. But when they've seen live trance shows like Tiesto or Christopher Lawrence they've really enjoyed it. So yes, we are making some progress. 
i don't think any of my friends really like it. that's why i like TA so much...it's a place that i can actually talk to people about stuff that i like to listen to hehehe

nobody in my country listen to trance
I've found bringing mates usaully females he he 
... over to my house and giving them the whole speel on what it's about, the different blends of trance where and why, let them listen to the tracks on a good sound set up, they end up getting a taste for it whereas before it was just rather a mix of beats and sounds.

all my friends like it, and i have a shit load of friends
the best that I can do is convert my "sis" into a Groove Coverage (they're CHEESE) addictz, and that's it =/
Other day when i was listenning to Kamiya Painter - Far From Over and my cousin commented that she like that tune
Trance sucks, so I don't have to worry. I know alot of hot semi-goth girls though who dig my industrial. :]
My brother likes Trance. But the rest of my "mates" listen to other stuff like hip hop, pasito duranguense, quebradita, corridos pesados, pop, rock en espa�ol, rock, etc. Damn weirdos!
