I know what it is, and i agree that there is no such thing as electro trance



I don't like electro at all......

What about Elevator Prog?

if you consider electro and freestyle the same then here it goes:

electro trance:

k5 - passion (kaycee remix)
kaycee - i feel you (original mix)
lange - i believe (breakbeat mix)
dune - electric heaven (kaycee remix)
kaycee - escape (electro mix)
matt darey - electro buzz
ghettoblasta - I O U



you tend to border the euro freestyle line with this [since after all electro and freestyle are like comparing commercial pop trance with underground trance (except that there is more quality freestyle from teh 80s then there is current pop trance)]

lol @ underground Trance


Who are you kidding ?

Please stop with the "It's not electro!!!" fight. It's beyond old and won't ever go anywhere.

its more a dexcription then anything. I dont know why people get all piped up about it. Do we have to say trance with electro elements or electro with trance elements? Or must he say 4/4 beat with trance builds and peaks with buzzing or high pitched synths with a 303 bassline and a 909 hihat and snare, blah blah, blah. its like saying dj sammy is trance rather than pop trance or euro dance. Not many people who like trance like cheesy trance so they disowned it and called it something else

Mode Hookers - Breathe (Sander Van Doorn Mix)
Supermodels from Paris - Keep On
Coburn - We Interupt This Program (Some trance mix, cant think of the name)
Some of Mashtronic's stuff is alright too

I don't care what the proper or correct name for it actually is, if tracks like Time To Burn or Kernkraft 400 were produced today, they'd likely be called 'electro trance'... cos they aren't hard/uplifting/prog/tech or pure trance (does straight up 'trance' trance still exist?)

I LOVE ELECTRO TRANCE (or whatever it's really called)

Pure fun for the dancefloor

No they wouldn't.

Originally posted by DJ Mikey Mike No it can't, there is no such thing. A lot of what Ferry Corsten plays though could be construed as "shit trance" though.

+1 totally agree

couldn't have said it better myself

Filo & Peri - In Your Face

thank you. i was going to say that, but you beat me to it.

So how do u guys think about Super8 & P.O.S pres. Aalto '5'?

�5�s thumping electro bassline and searing trancey lead make it one of the freshest tunes we�ve heard in ages. according to anjunabeats.com

afrika bambaataa - planet rock 1982


freestyle or electro?



thats what i thought.. BOTH

No. Some would say electro, some would say rap, some would say a combination of rap and electro. Not freestyle. Planet Patrol - Play At Your Own Risk (1982) is freestyle, and it was made by the same people using the same 24 track master.

i dont know what your on about it seems like this is a dejavu..


but lets take someone like Freestyle - Don't stopt the rock


ELECTRO/FREESTYLE just like bambaata. Yes not as dark, underground and loopy as some cybotron stuff but it has the elements just like bambaataa. (which basically used kraftwerk as a template)

Your problem is that you have boundaries to your genres when in reality there are no boundaries, everything is hybrid to say the least and it depends what you take out of electro to consider it part of another genre


so to restate, you'd have to be a moron to not know the conjunction between freestyle and electro.


and trance with electro elements or freestyle elements (if i may use that term) does exist

What about it? It's electro. I'm not entirely sure that you know what electro is.

Can you tell me what kind of music this is?

A lot of Electro, especially from the 80's, isn't dark or underground or loopy. A lot of it is lighthearted fun stuff.

There are boundries. That's why they're different genres. Just because you don't know what the boundries are doesn't mean they're not there.

The only conjunction would be perhaps the number of freestyle tracks that sample Planet Rock.

Nope.

[quote] then you could also call stevie b electro, as they use the same formula and instruments. Oh wait.. coudl it be that they could both be considered freestyle as well (not to mention that the group is called freestyle) [quote] Can you tell me what kind of music this is?

i would call that freestyle, Lacks some elements of typical freestyle tracks, not much cowbell or electro type percs, but it does contain a bassline reminicent of arthur bakers planet rock. this would fall outside electro since the main elements (besides a standard breakbeat) lack.

MOST freestyle songs however does contain alot more electro and would be hard to not consider it that.

thats nice to know, alot of it is darker too (with the vocoders on the vocals and what not)

i know the boundaries but there are alot that overlap between freestyle and electro

which would then make them electro ALSO

quote:

Nope.

Why should people not be corrected if they're wrong? Just because you don't understand the arguement at hand here doesn't give you the right to preach about squabbling.

SAMPLING, ever heard of it? and people has been sampling the beats of bambaata (well technicly arthur baker) ever since well, they produced the original track. and even baker sampled kraftwerk tracks for one of the most sampled/ripped off tracks EVER being planet rock.

and so what if missy elliott sampled cybotron - clear, the result was good and she sampled the track well.
