Trance

The whole progressive / 'regular' trance thing...like Armin, Markus, Tiesto, PvD, and what not.

forms of music i would ban if i ruled the world....

Circus Metal...... dont ask, its just horrible
gangsta rap
rnb/hiphop... just plain awful
candy pop like spears, timberlake etc etc

you cant just ban pop because it encompases everything popular by defenition.

gabber and hardstyle would inevitably be banned, but not until i had taken out the above.

i would keep jungle/drum n bass, but i would outlaw being a junglist... since they are tools by defenition.

house and prog can stay tho, since in the words of beavis and butthead, "you need things that suck to keep the cool stuff cool"

hardhouse

anything over 140 BPM, i cant get into.

i honestly don't know.. i think i can get into every genre of EDM. although some genres usually bore me after a few tracks. like hardstyle, hardhouse..

Maybe so, but they all have that watered-down "diet" progressive sound, which seems to be all the rage in EDM these days. Take a listen to the prog tracks from 2000-2002 and compare them to the releases this year. I think you'll see a difference.

IMO, it's been such a disappointing year for the progressive genres. Too much quantity and not enough quality, although there have been a few gems this year, so it's not all bad.

...Just my opinion.

the crystal method's albums has this weird....... "thing"!

I liked their tunes the first time I heard them but I only listened to their albums once and now I dont want to hear them again for a looooooooooooooooong long time.

Its phreakin' weird!

as many ppl mentioned - HARDSTYLE SUCKSSSS!!!!

i also don't like the 'rave' genres such as

jungle
dnb
gabber(or any shit like that)
breaks
goa

like a previous post, almost anything above 140bpm is annoying.

on the bright side though, i like:

trance, techno, house, ambient/chillout, and many subgenres of each

Posted by Psionic on Nov-24-2004 01:25:

Techno along the lines of DJ Rush or Robert Natus

Posted by Inertia on Nov-24-2004 02:41:

- hardstyle / hardcore: anything that fast... well... bleh

- that uber hard tool techno: techno for me should stay slightly under 140BPM, maybe over, but not too much. and just because it's techno doesn't mean it should be stupid hard, or monotonous and uninteresting, or can't be beautiful.

- vocal uplifting trance: i like this, but VERY rarely. what i dislike is normally the vocals are more prominent than the production, which pisses me off. i thank god for good dub mixes. although i don't listen to much trance anymore.

I love how trancers think trance is the highest level for people who are new to EDM

eurodance < cheese < sex < breathing < GOD < trance

I think big beat is pretty cool tbh, not a big fan of Crystal Method, but big beat pioneer Mr Norman Cook is the man!

Sweet, yeah thats another place I would love hearing Drum n Bass.

When Vegas (Crystal Method) came out in 97 I didn't think anything of it, till a friend of a friend of a friend of ... you get the idea..

...had it in his car with a powerful system.. It was so bad-ass you can hear the bass in High Roller that was so low, you can't hear it on a regular boombox or stereo. !

Hardcore/Hardstyle/Gabba/whatever it's called: Basically all forms of "hard dance", i just can't get into it. The only way i could possibly like it was if i took drugs, which i don't.

Techno - haven't really heard much, but i listened to a set and i just couldn't get into it. I suppose i'm just used to those, big, super-uplifting, euphoric, driving, supersaw melodies
