elitists

what is it with elitists that think trance is like pop?
Do they NOT listen to trance or what?
They couldn't name a real trance song and still think its pop.

how can they listen to only techno/house/psy/D&B ?

imo elitists are worse than newbies because they are both equally ignorant

Just like most of us listen to only trance and think everything else is shit.

none of us do
we don't other genre bash

you see anyone collectively bashing any other EDM genres?

the only thing we bash is mainstream rap, and it deserves it

Nope, I only like Trance music and some Indie music.

Its just your quick to call everyone elitist by bashing another genre when your doing the same yourself by bashing hip hop.

Its not about the music genre its the fact your a hypocrite

What the hell are you high on? Whatever it is, can you share it with me?

This post is ridiculous, so basically you are an elitist if you dislike trance, but like house/techno/d&b, etc...? I dislike trance, and absolutely love house, but I can supply valid reasons for that. Music is subjective, people have different tastes, get over it.

WTF? Nobody said that. Do you have trouble understanding written text?

What I'm saying is you're having double standards. You bash people for doing something you do too.

i said people that BASH trance and only like ONE genre of edm
people that do that know nothing about trance, so why do they bash it?

how many threads do you see that go like
"techno sucks"
or "progressive house sucks"
none

Are you saying you ARE above mainstream rap? Is that not what elitism is all about?

Think before you speak.

i listen to mainstream rap a lot (im forced to by the media), how often do edm genre elitists listen to trance? rarely if ever

I never judge a rap song by listening to it for 10 seconds

Just stop already, you just keep digging the hole bigger.

haha funny thread

im lost...


and apart from anything else that happened today, i actually agree with mr mystery

haha so the media sit there with a gun pointed at your head forcing you to listen to rap?

I like a lot of music, including mainstream rap. I liked Wu-Tang Clan when they were "underground" and I like them after they "blew up" and got the "bling whales" . He he. The other day, I was gr00vin' to a subliminally-played version of Nelly's "Iz U" -- you know, that song that makes catchy use of a sample of The People's Court theme. And it made me think of... the plaintiff and the defendant! As in, are our musical tastes on trial here? Why can't we have more freakin' fun??

I don't like the attitudes of technosnobs or classical music snobs or whatever, but they do serve a role -- warning the rest of us to be more openminded and diverse in our approaches to music or end up cranky and whiny like them!

I'd like to hear more trance-hop and I think maybe Hybrid will do this on their next album. We already have trance 'n' bass and breaktrance, and slowing down the BPM and infusing some of that hypnotic goodness as slightly been touched on by Timbaland and a few other producers.

We gotta remember that these musical divisions are largely arbitrary, and a "necessary evil" of accessibility and convenience. You can't just bash a whole genre because like the infinite worm, where does it end and where does it begin? We're all interconnected and house with added arpeggios is trancey or techno with a supersaw riff comes *too* close anyway. "Trance" itself may be likened to all the kinds of dogs . . . they come in all sorts of sizes & shapes. :P

There again, you are shooting yourself in the foot. Look at all the progressive house vs. trance threads and you'll see what I mean. People love to bash progressive house for being too boring and/or too slow, and to them, it does suck. Actually, I think progressive gets just as much bashing as trance does.
