The only way you can hear EDM in the United States is by going clubbing. Its not like Europe where they play trance on the radio. There is absolutely nothing of that sort here in the US.

If you do go clubbing though, we still get the same DJ's you get in every other country, so I don't know what you mean by that. Its just not as actively attended or noticed by most people here.

I agree that Miami is one of our few 'hotspots' when it comes to trance.

*On a side note I'm gonna be in Ireland for the remainder of the summer, so its like worlds colliding.

Fuck if you had a clue. Warehouse party in Philly this Friday is going to be absolutely amazing, just like every other one. Sure Philly isn't great for your typical trance scene if you wanna see Armin or Sasha but the underground EDM scene is great!

You need to learn to read. I said UNLESS you live in Philly, you're fucked. As in, if you live in Pittsburgh, State College, Harrisburg, Erie, etc, you're screwed if you expect an EDM scene.

Philly was the exception, which you'd have understood if you actually read and processed my comment.

whats the new york scene like groundhog?

I like it. I listen to a lot of different genres, and the size of NYC allows for events of all types. There's 4 megaclubs that play EDM here, and a lot of smaller clubs. It's more house than trance, but trance is still found a lot here. The techno scene also has a good sized following. Breaks and DnB events are less frequent, at least for what I'm aware. We get Armin and PvD usually 3-4 times a year. Ferry Corsten had a monthly residency from Oct '05 - March '06. Tiesto is also around a lot, though I don't go to see him.

If your idea of house is Morillo...well then you're missing 90% of what house has to offer.

Reading apparently also has a good underground scene.

again ill repeat what i said. morillo is the only house producer i could say i like as he has some trance similarities in his work. i played house and i didnt like it. ill admit im a full on trance man, house doesnt interest me. but you dont see me saying to people who are into house and they say a name like pvd ''wow you really know your trance djs'', why do people have to post stupidity is beyond me. if its not relevant to what is asked, the simple think to do is dont post.

Originally posted by Lebezniatnikov Well, Boston or Chicago will have decent scenes, though Chicago is bigger into House and Boston is bigger into the Indie Rock scene, what with being such a college town and all. Both will draw the occasional big name DJ though, like Ferry or KT.

whoa.. boston has a decent trance scene? where? I've been dying out there..

all ive seen are big names at the avalon..

is there anything more than clubbing there?

I remember one night spontaneously deciding to go clubbing w/ some friends in DC (District of Columbia), and once inside the club I realized it was Sasha spinning!

My friends in England once waited in a line three blocks long to go see Sasha at a club in London.

haha no it was a while ago. It might have been Insomnia which I think became Fur later. Either that or Dream, wow I get them all so confused. (Must be my sober lifestyle )

Trance is big city centric thats for sure, I sometimes travel to Washington DC and Atlanta, I am kinda half way between those 2 cities. Trance comes on the radio where I live, the more dancey styles are on a local station monday-thursday and there is chillout type stuff on sundays. You will find that being part of a specific crowd will lead you towards trance and your other good but radio unfriendly type musics.

We have alot of fun with trance/DnB/House/whatever in north carolina, but mostly in smaller venues. It is a small group of people who like the stuff, not enough people to form different crowds for each genre, so you see the same group of party kids everywhere, and most people will dance to any style of music that gets played, which is something I really like about my home when compared to the bigger cities. There are actually quite a few people who come over here from austin texas to spin too, so I imagine they have a decent scene as well.

Miami, Los Angeles and New York City probably. Detroit has more techno and Chicago has more house, because that is where they originated, or well their own brand of it. Miami, LA and NYC seem to get the big parties and big clubs. There's a few in Detroit, where I'm from (well the suburbs) but not that many. The only one I know that is pretty consistent is Bleu. Wish I could go there (saw Tiesto there once)...but I have parents who freak out if I say I want to go there, because they don't want me to go alone.....even now that I'm 21...can't wait till I get out of the house...or find someone who can go with me. Detroit has one of the biggest festivals in the country, the Movement, but it's mostly techno, house and hip hop. There is some resistance to trance i've encountered in my area, there's just this "detroit techno purity" kind of thing going on. I had a guy at a record/dj shop even try to convince me to buy some detroit techno records. He was basically like "why do you like trance music, it's gay!".
