Classical...me too!
I also fail to feel the magic of angry music. I want to major in music theory in college, so from my experiences with that the classical musicians in my life like to call trance "minimalist music". This means that the songs are long, changes occur subtly and happen slowly, as much time passes. It's a kind of respected name they call it in the classical world. So my question is, why do professional classical musicians make fun of/disregard techno as a valid music form? Are they angry with it because it allows people to express music without having to learn the difficult 'trade' of playing a specific instrument? Or do they actually get turned off from the music by some of the people involved with it, like rowdy teenagers? What I've figured out is, some of the magic in trance is that it's such a hypnotic and ecstacy-inducing type of music. It's like in ancient, tribal traditions with people pounding on different-toned drums to a certain beat for hour after hour, with chanting perhaps in the background, and maybe a fire to dance about. It's proven to be a fact that the specific beat of both that music and likewise, trance, aligns with the human body rhythms and so dancing to it can take your mind to a different state. You only know it when you've tried it. Some people like drugs to make it better, but even if you don't take drugs it's doing the same thing to you.
So that's my long babbling answer to my obsession with trance. It's just the coolest music ever, it sounds so '3d' with the effects you can make it have. Like at a rave when there is one of those giant, loud bassey 'Boom!'s that happen right after the drums build up and then drop out to reveal just the melodic pretty tune...you imagine like a bomb being dropped right into the middle of the crowd and the energy from the bomb spreading out into every direction of space...what other music can do that so well?
