Too easily impressed?
Hmm, is it just me or are some people just too easily impressed by tunes sometimes? Especially brand new tracks. Often I'll hear all this mega hype around this sick new track, then to download and find myself thinking "Um...ok, what's the big deal?"
I dunno, I'm just not too easily impressed? Anyone else get the same thing?
Music is a matter of personal taste. When one finds a track tune of the year you might not like it.
Luckily we don't all find the same music the best 
well, for every track posted here, there will be a handful of people who post the same stupid shit "OMG I DIE" or whatever. it's usually the same people every time, too. it's best to tune them out because they are just playing the "me too" card and have no real taste in music. it's best to look for new material by certain artists that you know you like rather than go on somebody else's opinions.

hype is often responsible for selling records, doesnt alwayes mean its absolute quality.
Another contributin factory to the this is where it was heard. For instance. if the track was heard in a club the person may of been hyped already because of the atmosphere he was in making anything with a beat and simple synth/string sound good. If he heard it in an online radio set and in a chat room with other fans that could also lead into the follow the leader type atmosphere. Aside from those some people do genuinely think these tracks are good and thats fine. As mentioned before. It all comes down to personal taste. Don't got nothing nice to say don't say it.
I feel ya on this one.
Got the same problem, I've downloaded tons of crap just because people always go "OMG I DIE"
But of course I've also found some very nice tunes this way...

Allthough I agree with the topic totally, this is just a fine example of how different people's taste are, as some have said already.

Ya...
Sometimes people here act like kids.
It was a simpsons quote.
Homer said it shortly after telling Mr. Burns that he wasn't easily impressed. But you all already knew that.
ha ha.
for instance, there are several people jizzing over the markus schulz remix of as the rush comes. i am just listening to a sample and hear these repulsive male vocals. the background sounds like a busy factory. this remix sucks ass cheeks, but you don't see any discriminating listeners in the thread about it because they like music based on names, not actually music.
what I can't really understand is when ppl go wild after hearing yet another uplifting tune with the same elements of tons of other tunes. (obviously, these apply to genres other than uplifting, but here that's what you note more)
As The Rush Comes was ripped from Markus Schulz's DJ set, the Male vocals are not in the remix. People that are talking about it have heard it in a club when G&D played it or on a better quality radio stream last night. If you were making your critique on a song from hearing a 40 kbs Radio rip, then maybe there should be a thread titled "Too easily dismissed as not good". You have to remember music is art, and not everyone likes the mona lisa. But people who do like the mona lisa are passionate about that painting.

fair enough. it was a very good mix, then i thought it might be off of another track but it melded with atrc pretty damn well
One of the things I'm a bit worried about to, is that if we don't start to demand quality, we won't get it. I recall many people in the past couple of months saying that nothing good seems to be coming out lately, or that the music in a slump. Sure, it could very well be that, but maybe it's because alot of the stuff coming out is to humor those who aren't particularly difficult to please.
big name artist + some new track = OMGs all over
no name artist + track which sounds the same = silence
I find the same thing. Only about 1 in 10 tracks that people are "DIE"ing over really do it for me. I think it depends how you hear them though- hearing a DJ drop a new tune live is more likely to leave a big impression than the same tune would if you heard it @ home. Also, IMO a really great track isn't always one you love right away, but rather one that grows on you over time. I don't even know if I like a tune or not until a week of listening to it most times.
