It is not so much about the scene for me as it is the idea of sharing things I love with my partner. I think we all know I am a bit of an excitable person and I love being able to share that excitement with Bobby.

Originally posted by She_Fitz I love being able to share that excitement

I completely agree....and I think for me, it also applies to my relationships with friends. I love my friends who aren't into the same music as me but I feel an additional bond with those that can understand, and share, my excitement for the scene...

That's one of the things I love about Sarah. Even though she doesn't like the music... When I am really excited to see someone play, no mix comes out, a new vinyl I really want...she is excited and happy for me too.

lol at the number of people distinguishing liking the same music from being into "the scene"

non-euphimistic version = I want to date someone who likes deadmau5 too but doesn't do drugs and then talk to the wall

my definition of "being into the scene" involves actually going out to see and support djs... not simply listening to edm every once in a while.....

talking to walls=abusing the scene

what about when walls talk to u? i mean...its just so hard to ignore them.....

Originally posted by geroin I honestly don't know if i can ever date a girl that likes hiphop (or other non edm type music) and does not go out to places i do, could that ever work? what do you guys think..

Non Edm type music for the most part disguishes a scene much like the one that we are in, so this leads me believe that this is the reason a lot of people taking the discussion that way...

I don't know. Just my thoughts.

I'd say the girl would have the appreciate house etc but not be totally infatuated with it. My girlfriend is a considerable fan of house and is starting to get into techno which is great. Unfortunately she never dances when I bring her out to an event. She'll literally stand there in the middle of the dancefloor and suck the good vibes out of the area.

There was one rare occasion where she actually danced and had a good time but it was likely because she was really drunk and stoned. I figured she just doesn't like dancing in general but she has told me that when she goes out with her other friends she dances. When asked why she doesn't dance when she's with me she says she isn't comfortable with me watching her dance - what a fucking girl answer. Lesson learned - I don't invite her out anymore.

Originally posted by FunkyCrew lol Jeff you're so silly! a. why can't the girl take care of herself? b. she wants to leave early - she can cab it home! I do! what's wrong with leaving/arriving separately? c. house vs. trance lol! so you go and listen to your own music then.. at LoL I was planning to be at the main room for house, but then Armin took over and it was trance all night.. but that was just because I was having so much fun, not because I couldn't venture on my own to listen to house! d. expensive? how about splitting up costs? do you seriously feel obliged to pay for everything?

took the words right out of my mouth

what if the person is hard into the nudisco/electro punk style?? it IS a form of electronica would it still be an issue?

I see you 'd your comment...but you're statement doesnt exactly make you sound like prince charming...

Originally posted by evil_cookie I hope you're not quoting me in advocating the notion of "importance of scene." The only reason I said that was because it would appear to me that this is the logic people are going by

nope. you were just the last person to throw down the concept.

lol thanks

my gf prefers hard techno like karakasis, delgardo, peppelino, dastin, odessa soundfreaks, kali etc.
i prefer groovy banging minimal like kanio, autistic, cardo, piatto, dandi&ugo, leeks, vladimir acic etc.
We both make fun of tiesto, pvd, and deadmaus and since im in charge of music we usually listen to minimal. Works for me, lol

Dating someone with other interests in music is undesirable imo.

There was this hottie chick who was friends w a buddy of mine in Uni (York), she listened to Hawtin, this was YEARS ago (2001 or so), ran into her at Hawtin at the Opera house (G and Nat remember), wow. I love women who have taste in music like that. It is not the be all and end all though, but it adds to everything imo.

Ehhh, with all due respect to you and to them, the mere existence of couples in the scene does not disprove his point, unless those relationships actually last for more than a few months without the influence of drugs, and most don't.

Now some people may say this is true for all relationships, and it probably is to some extent, but it's way worse in the "scene".

Sure you need to "find the right one" - that's pretty much a universal truth - but the likelihood of finding them in a club is vanishingly small compared to, say, college/university, or mainstream social events, or, hell, even the internet in this day and age.

Graham's statement was that girls in the scene are not dating material. No mention of drugs.

I disagreed with him because I can count probably twenty or more long term couples I know of alone that have met in the scene, party together and have a positive future.

Now compared to singles...there are WAY more single people in the clubs than couples, very obvious.

The common bond of the love for this music makes it easy to fall for someone with that similar love and lifestyle. I am biased though because I am a living example of someone who dates in the scene past and present. It's simply too much a part of my life.
