| Originally posted by Nyquist_Theorem Trance isn't dead, guys, I play my Anjunabeats and Euphonic records to full dancefloors for money almost every weekend, and I know from the feedback I get from punters that there's still plenty who love to hear it when its presented the right way. |
No offence man but what are you going on about? i dont get that.. the scene is dead my friend because of the consistency in rivalry, backstabbing, etc on a 1 to 1 level. Every dj is in the scene for himself and he will do anything to stay at the top. how long do people really last in a community fueled by rumours and he said she said bullshit.
You guys really wanna help your scene? Get to know your promoters and your djs, because 9 times out of 10, theyre probably talking shit about you right now.
Nothing is going to survive on a mass scale if the only way people better themselves is to put down others. Before you preach to me about how you're all about new blood etc, maybe people dont help others because everybody else is doing it for themselves, and the only way to last in the scene is to follow this way of life.
Somebody had to say it.

And that's a shame. |

okay considering that i am relatively new to these boards and what has been going on i am not going to comment about the rivalry and so forth that soups and a few others mentioned.
something i will comment on is this; so many times i have heard people say that they are sick of the formulaic trance being produced these days and that more classics should be played from the glory days of trance. why is this not happening? when the top dj's come out they play classic songs and the crowds go nuts, a perfect example of this was BT at godskitchen.

kathy's song is choon but.
It died when the DJ's stopped dancing, when chins were being stroked fashionably and everyone turned into promoters.
Its all there, but unfortunatly the house scene is dominating everything at the moment, find what attracts people to house music and there is your answer.
Nobody is better than anyone in this scene.
Find a new audience if the one you have has turned sour.

damn straight
I can here the groans at me responding...
What attracts people (read girls) to house music is that they can sing along as they dance. The house music that is around at moment is really melodic as well where as the trance I here out is boring same beat stuff.

OMG!! I didn't know there was so little love between crews! So much fighting! Trance is about PLUR, where is the PLUR??
Anyways, I had this wicked idea last night whereby Future/Gatecrasher/and say the Obsession team (with the idea that team would then present all the trance stages at Future parties/other large parties...) put on a huge massive enormous par-tay, kind of celebrating the latest Gatecrasher Classics CD released whereby no DJ fears dropping 'real' anthems, along with future anthems (and maybs a few fillers
) I know Gatecrasher has a stage at Adventjah, but not everyone went to Ballarat, and it was only late in the piece the stage was 'presented' by Crasher wasn't it??
There's enough branding to draw in a crowd (including old skoolers from 2001 and earlier who want to relive the glory days), plus the kids that hit the dancefloor every weekend now, plus a few noobs would be dragged along for the ride and probably love every minute cos the crowd would be LARGE, the music would be GOOD, the lasers will be REACHED FOR!!
Yeah anyways, I'm no promoter. The idea could suck balls.
Vee, its a good idea but "Oracle" (adventjah) own the contract to GC now and future wont touch GC with a 10 ft poll
I agree, that was a good idea actually.
Touche.
good luck to everyone trying to put something positive in. there'd better be a lovely thriving scene next time i come visiting
of course, you could all do your bit for growing the tassie scene too by coming to visit every 6 months
