I listen to a track ive never heard before, and i can always pick out right when a new element is coming in, you can just feel it. the 4:4 measure is starting to bore me. any ideas as to new and interesting forms of electronic, perhaps in a 3:3 or some weird ass 7:3 combination?


7/3? for dance music?! i cant see that happening lol. maybe 6/8, but not 3/3, that would be totally ridiculous, and there is no way it would still be club music.it would be more like folk music and people would be inclined to do barn dance steps to it! i cant work out how someone would rave to a track which is written in anything but 4/4.

anyway you can have variation without changing the time signiture, you can program some really wierd drums without changing the entire time signiture, its one of the things that is the basis to pretty much all EDM, in fact i challenge someone to come up with a track that is considered as EDM which isnt 4/4 (and when i say 4/4 i mean 4 crotchets to a bar) and triplets dont count, because they are still within a 4/4 bar, just each beat is divided into three triplets.

One thing i do like is when you get odd phrases like 7 bar or 9 bar phrases instead of your normal 8 bar ones. sometimes you get 6 bar ones which almost sound like there is no defined begining or end, it just flows as a circle and the riff seems indefinate, i love that.

Goa is the answer.


this is true. and goa still does exist, one of my buddies moved to goa india for 3 months this term to visit family and he keeps sending me cd's and stuff he buys there. some amazing goa from people i have never heard of. psy is also really really good. ive been listning to alot of buttrock goa lately (i know i know i used an ishkur genre but beyond the weird name its a legitimate subgenre) which is heavy metal and goa mixed up. interesting stuff. the ASOT style trance is killing the genre and no DEEP HOUSE IS NOT THE ANSWER... you really have two choices, start listning to trance form 6 years ago or move on to psy/goa...

Goa is cool.

Listen to some old stuff, theyre usually better than the new stuff coming out today.

breaks

I would recommend you to start listening to old school trance (90's trance music).
That's the style I love best and the one I will love best forever

...those are my roots heh

Aphex Twin, Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Laurent Garnier, Sven V�th are my suggestions.

Why is that?


Posted by Geoff on Feb-07-2005 22:29:

better solution, only listen to ashlee simpson, hillary duff, jojo, etc. for a whole week, u'll be dying for trance (or actually anything) afterwards


Posted by Ian on Feb-07-2005 22:45:

Psychedelic, Ambient & Techno are there and there's so much in each genre to get into that it could take you the rest of your lifetime.

Angus Robinson's Futurized Radio

Protonradio.com, 6pm pacific time on Monday Nights. It's the sh*t.

Deep House, the answer? Ha! Like spending eternity in the ice hell of Scandinavian myth.

Though to be fair, it's largely a matter of taste if you want to move into a different genre altogether. I prefer techno, myself, but trance isn't worth abandoning. Yet.

Stop whining and stop listening to music all together.

Get some yoga lessens. Explore the "inner" you.

If all that fails, turn to cocaine.

I've explored the Inner me.

na...

i'd turn to heroin or other opiates myself... goes really well with trance music.

I can never get bored of electronic music, because I enjoy a variety of genres in EDM and I got just enough tunes to avoid repeating them often enough.

Try listening to variety of stuff .. like me:

House
Trance
Disco
Retro
Ambient
Space
Progressive
Techno
Acid Jazz
Smooth Jazz (not EDM)
Drum 'N Bass

and house/trance/techno classics is another very delicate thing I love ...


Posted by RIPassion on Feb-10-2005 22:50:

Try some harder stuff, it could be refreshing:

Praiseworthy Tunes - Passive Resistance (Hoipolloi remix)
Yoji Biomehanika - Hardstyle Disco

Check out lots of live sets and do some research on the tracks you like from said sets; I'm sure you'll figure something out.

You make it sound as if all music got boring and predictable, maybe it's just that a lot of electronic has for you. Try getting into some other genres (i really enjoy classic rock). Regardless there are some good tunes out there, you just need to find them and open your scope.


Posted by noikeee on Feb-11-2005 11:37:

yet another +1 for techno

deep and melodic as it should be, those banging-stuck-in-an-industrial-percs-loop-forever tracks are boring

how about 499/3242
