because one of his housemates listens to it, so it has to be!

hm not anymore since 2003 (unless u count some sunday chill sessions with old livesets as listening to trance)

no i don't, i rarely ever listen to electronic music at all, and if i to it's either house or idm
EDIT: and daft punk, i say daft punk cause i don't really know which genre they would belong to

i mostly listen to cheese house these days. i'm talking radio station house, and we all know how cheese that is.

i like techno too, but none of this new age minimal bullshit. sander van doorn (~2005) & carl cox (~2000-2001) style techno ftw!

Originally posted by BTG I think drum and bass /jungle will be the next electroic exploit, and it will be a damn shame. i dont like dnb, but i know that it's in its peak for the next few years.

Welcome to 1995 mate.

Only psy & goa since mid '05. I've honestly tried to sit through the '07 top 20 asot mix only to give up half way through. I can't stand that fluffy tracking treasure down gay trance and the fucking boring prog house tracks that are played on Markus Schulz radio show. The only dj on radio that interests me is John Fleming. I'll listen to a few classic PVD and tiesto sets from the late 90s and early 2000, but that's where I draw the line with trance.

Drum'n'bass has already had it's peak in the second half of 90's.

Originally posted by BTG same with techno, actually i think techno's already on the downhill road to fail with the new minimal that's going to collide with electro to make electech, which will be balls awful.

I really don't see that happening. Electro and minimal have nothing to do with each other.
"Electro" house and minimal techno are like ground and sky.

I almost never listen to any EDM anymore. Maybe like once a month.

I think I might have overconsumed it. I listened to so much techno/tech house at some point that I've overdosed and now I can't stand listening to anything with any kind of beat.

I've been listening to EDM for 7-8 years and in the last 3-4 years at least 2-6 hours a day.

+1.

I find myself listening to and calling other genres of music trance, even when I know for a fact they aint trance, for example stuff like Nick Warren's GU CD's. John Digweed Transitions.

Pure trance as I remember it fondly is hard to come by. Thins such as thrillseekers old sound, etc.

I just associate any and all melodic dance music as trance. I know it's wrong, but I just do.

normally this would be a stupid question to ask on a trance forum. but since this is tranceaddict, aka "i hate on trance b/c its the cool thing to do now a days" forum, its actually a good question, im sure alot of ppl on here dont listen to trance yet have extremly boring lives and post on here all day and do nothing but talk shit to make themselves feel better....

as for the question...yes i still listen to trance....all the time, old and new.

haha normally id bash you because i'm an elitist but in this case i can use the topic to enlarge my e-penor.

as for the question... yes, i am 1337... and i plan to stay bettar than u 24/7.

Yes.

What has changed is that I no longer like the "hands in the air" kind of stuff -- more a fan of "hypnotic" dance music now (which can be found in techno [especially acid], house, and other genres in addition to trance). Plus my tastes for electronic music are now a lot broader than just trance + prog house. Trance, dubstep, ambient, chillout, IDM, breaks, techno, house, etc. etc.

There's so much good music out there, and I think that you can find a bit to like in almost every genre, as long as you go in with an open mind and do a bit of searching beyond whatever's on top of the latest chart.

with the exception of early 90s trance, i think most electronic music* is actually far more hypnotic than trance


*except for full on drum and bass, big room house, etc

I'd agree.

I never did restrain myself with sub-genres. I listened to tech house, prog, acid, detroit tech, minimal tech, deep house, breaks, 89-94 trance... In a way, this is all essentially the same genre (EDM), with subtle variations. The problem is, the more music I discovered, the higher my standards became, and then I reached a point where I was enjoying barely 1% of the tracks I listened to on beatport or heard in sets, such that searching for new tracks just became a hassle.

Most of what I liked was made in the early 90s, and this sort of music just isn't made the same anymore. So as a result I ended up listening to the same 20-30 tracks all the time and I got bored quickly.
