And let me just clarify that I didn't mean minimal isn't "good" music since that's obviously subjective. I just always find the "I didn't use to like genre xx but then I heard it in a club..." comments a bit weird.

to me minimal doesnt really set a mood.

trance is very uplifting, house is more cheerful, chillout/deep house you listen to at lounges.

i wasnt to sure if there were space for minimal in the club.

Point is I can't dance to it, which would render a night out pretty pointless. Some stuff with beats is just as out-of-place, like Broken Beat... imagine the spazzed out moves you'd have to pull. I guess it'd still be good music, but I wouldn't appreciate it.

You have no idea, do you? Find a club with proper Minimal, go to a few of their nights and then get back to me. I have never come home so sweaty and sore from dancing as I have from dancing to Minimal. It works, and it works well.

Minimal can be just as "uplifting" as Trance, as "cheerful" as House, etc. Experience it before you talk about it.

trance and house are pretty broad...hence the reason they all have different sub-genres to "set" different moods, but still that doesn't constrain it

As opposed to the 12 year old, who's gonna claim he's been listening to it for 6 years now after he reads this post...

Seriously:

Seriously, wtf is your problem? Do you still live with your parents and mommy doesn't give you enough attention anymore? FYI I've been listening to EDM since I was 12 and now I'm 16, if it makes you seem any more ignorant. You should think twice before you touch your sticky keyboard.

Can't we all just jam to a Richie Hawtin mix and get along?

Wotzy and Woscar remind me of the Odd Couple.

I have a dream, that one day, people of all sorts of races can sit the fuck down and listen to a Richie Hawtin set without discriminating against genres

weird as they may be, they have a bit of truth to them. all it takes is one really good night out, whether it be because of the crowd, the sound system, the club, the dj, the music whatever...one good night out can change your mind entirely about a genre.

a friend of mine used to hate minimal, a whole lot... he said he found it dull etc. one night in miami we went to the burridge barrage at b.e.d. and he was totally in love with the genre.

There is a group of guys that put together a great party here in Philadelphia about once a month. It mainly consists of minimal, techno, and tech house in the main rooms but there is an outside section that is nothing but ambient the entire night. Funny enough, that is the most packed room all throughout the entire night.

I think that's absolute bullshit, to be honest.
