| 6a. Starts listening to other genres and see's the light... posting on how trance is dead, how it's not the same, how tiesto sucks, etc. and how techno/house/progressive/tech-trance or jungle is the best kind of music in the world. |

So true great thread.
I think now and then I dropped back a couple of levels then go back up. Heh mood swings I guess.
1 & 2 <- Oh I got confused with quality and crap. Boy oh boy thinking Rank 1 & Scooter were on the same level.
3 <- took ages to get to this level. I still had the my feeling for the cheese sounds, and thinking it was real elite stuff.
4 <- Yeah I recall this. Fighting with my siblings and blah blah. "No singing, your music is bullshit!" Me: "You can stick your eurodance/pop up your arse"
5 <- I can easily recall this.
6a < never said another EDM genre is better than trance. But I do feel trance is in decline.
6b <- the inevitable happened...and I ended up spending almost $2K.
7 <- I'm back at square one where I start appreciating genres outside of EDM, and that is right. Music is for my emotions. 
stage 5 here, hoping to reach 6b soon
I'm in stage 1.. ea? trance sucks.. can't understand much. I prefer techno. Satisfaction Is Techno! Crazy Baby is Techno, Anthem 2 is techno..

my entry level was happy hardcore
at least i was able to sell all them bonkers albums for a tidy sum
Stage 7 for me and the music that excites my emotions these days definitely has to be of the melodic progressive genre.
<- level -1
Level 7.3 Here.

What's the point of such thread?
People always tend to catagorizing music as well as themselves. How productive.
BTW, I'm so sorry I've never been in any of the above stages as you stated, unfortunately.

Stage 7 for me... via 6.b never hit 6.a and i still like tiesto because he got me into trance with ISOS2. I like more then trance but trance gives me the best feeling and ability to express throughout the set... I see it like writing a story book with music. Doesn�t get much better then that!
Trance is dead... 
Three months of pointless mp3 whoring and the first to go on repeat in my winamp is aurora borealis - milky way (which I have already countless versions of..except for the original which I recently acquired)
I am not a DJ and I dont see any point to prog either.So I'll take 6c where I am barely hanging on to trance without a clue as to what I will be listening to in a year 
Although ppl cannot be categorized,this is a good attempt cos it plugs the usual exits.
roosh, why are you so awesome?
6a
though i'm still in the trance field, progressive trance has been my fav style for like 2 years. got almost completely bored of uplifting though
Beginning to DJ and building tracklists can really give you a new appreciation for music (ie. Trance). Some songs I didn't care too much about before, I find myself wanting to play them everytime in my sets and enjoy them more that way.
Trance isn't dead, it is different than it was, those incredibly epic and uplifting tunes are fewer in number, but trance itself is evolving, uplifting and progressive. Producers like Gabriel & Dresden, James Holden, Nathan Fake, Leama and Moor, Luke Chable, Grayarea, and more, are all pushing forward the innovation envelope on progressive...
While Tiesto I think is still on top of his game esp. with his new CD coming out, Ferry's moving onto some exciting electro/tech sounds, Armin seems to be a jack of all trades and music genres (hopefully he starts making some more productions), Push, Solar Stone, Airwave... these guys are all doing well and releasing exciting tunes. And some newer artists like Re:Locate, Phynn, Fictivision, C-Quence, Mesh, Filo & Peri, RonskiSpeed, Subsphere... how is trance dead or how is it worse? It's a matter of evolving along with music and not rotting in one time period.

im at 5. only, i'd say level 0 for me was introduction to EDM in general. after listening to different genres, i really dug trance and got to level 1. i'll get to 6a, and still listen to other genres outside of EDM ATM
But Roosh, why are you gay?
Im definitly a 7, since I listen to everything.
