1. Single case comparisons are hardly end-all, be-all descriptions. Essentially what you're saying is that because you can come up with one instance where a producer has produced a tune that is sort of close to minimal (or any genre), you can label them a a minimal producer. You can't. Intellectual loopholes are for idiots who aren't smart enough to make sound arguments.

2. You're obviously not "over it." The amount of time you've spent in this thread trying (and failing) to make yourself look even the slightest bit intelligent is a clear indication of that.

When I was Referring to the minimal music I do like I said "I like some Gui Borrato". For a minute squeeze your brain hard and ask yourself In that context does it mean Gui Borrato is a solely a Minimal artist or that I like the Minimal flavor tracks he does make. Stop making up shit.

use this as reference : Originally posted by MoBreakz
Some Minimal is good earphone music though, cant totally diss it, but those tracks are far and few between. I like some Gui Borrato, Trentemoller, Gabriel Ananda, Minilogue, Audiofly, Extrawelt, Paul Kalkbrenner, Ame, Loco Dice and Radioslave stuff though.

Why dont you stop bumping this thread...it ended long time ago.

yeah, that's what everyone's using as a reference for saying you're wrong. They don't make minimal. Hell, most of those don't even have tracks in the minimal section on Beatport, which is inaccurate enough as is.

minimal is a fad, trance is dead, get a fucking life.

there should be a c span for trance. t-span...

nationally, you all could go on podiums in a big room and debate about trance genres on television. it would be somewhat entertaining

::listens to Gui Boratto - The Rising Evil::

^Minimal Techno. And your talkin out of ur ass. Go to Beatport. Type in Gui Boratto and about 35 of his tracks will come up. Tell me you dont find a single track labled as Minimal by him. If you dont, dig deeper. Why do morons keep bumping this thread lol.


minimal techno != minimal

trance genres??

Ok this thread is leading nowhere and was biased from the beginning.

Minimal is not a fad because it is not a genre.

Minimalism is a concept, which has been applied to painting, sculpture, music, architecture, interior design, etc.

For example, you can make minimal trance or minimal architecture, though you cannot make trance architecture. Trance, is a musical genre, not a concept.

Now what is it that you dont understand ?
