This topic is so very funny... a lot of signature material here. 
Not so sure that none of us would be here, alot of us found our way to these kinds of websites through things like the hyperreall archives, background music on the TV and movies and stuff. Those kinda attractors very well could have remained depite how the music sounded. Then there was stuff like mp3.com and napster that opened up huge amounts of people to varieties of music that they never tried before, that would have probably still happened despite any alternate directions trance could have taken.
There are also a fair amount of kids here who learned of trance from their older friends and family, and alot of the ppl who listened to that stuff way back in the day are still turning on new people to their music.
I think you underestimate us when you say that none of us would be here had it not been for robert miles. Alot of people I think would have gotten here anyway, but there really is no way to know. Alot of those really repetitive songs appeal to the kind of people that post around here.

If you ever check out the amateur producers forum - you'll see a lot of comments like 'gets a bit too repetitive' and 'plays the same over and over again'...which is strange as it is usually trance songs posted ...and repetitiveness is or is meant to be one of the main characteristics of trance.....

why do you guys mention Stella which after all is a cheesy balearic track. for real hypnotic stuff head for Eye Q-stuff. Tunes like Odysee of Noises - Firedance and Earthnation goodies

Oh, oh! I think I can hear the counterargument already: "Stella isn't pretending to be something it's not".
I admit can understand what Ish means by that, but it is perhaps the fuzziest and most subjective part of his argument against epic trance.
People could also use a healthy dose or reminder that although epic trance constitutes the highest profile in the genre, it's but a fraction of the subgenres that exist.

| Originally posted by Ishkur If trance had not evolved from what it was, none of you would be here, and hardly anyone would be scarcely aware of its existence, so its a moot point. It would be doing something outside of your sphere of interest. |

i think buildups are great..but not when theres a freakin build up in every track u play..some tracks should be steady beat, others should be euphoric, and others should have the builds ups to wake ppl up
i like build ups...except for that randy katana bullshit....fuck katana

aiwendil is just another turd like ishkur.
They seem to come in packages. The only difference is ishkur is a bit bigger than his follower.
I think this board would be boring as all hell if there weren't the Aiwendils/Radagasts and Ishkurs here. I usually laugh at 95% of what they say. And you can't deny that they're generally on point whether you disagree or not.
Without elite-ists that actually know their shit all this board would be is "omg j00 hear teh new ch00n Schulz spun? releasereleasereleasecamgasmchasmspasmsssss"
Learn to laugh a little people 
I agree, they definately make the workday slightly more entertaining, however obnoxious they may be.
Yeah that's it, i'm a "follower" of Ishkur because I don't like your potty-training trance. That's some impeccable logic there.
Unbeknownst to you, there are many more people who have the same views as us, they're just too smart/wise/mature/cool to hang around places like this. And they've never heard of Ishkur. Here comes that word again. People don't know what elitist means. Saying something sucks doesn't make one an elitist.
