how come so few people understand trance?!

very often i hear people saying "how can you listen to that shit, it's always the same, it's boring with all those beats"

this is just freaking me out, trance is all about melody and unique sounds. yet nobody seems to realize that. yesterday at brussels is burning, the bass was that hard that most of the time you couldn't hear any other sounds than the beat. that's a real pity, i think. i like a hard beat once in a while, but not in a trance track.

trance is about composition, not about 4/4 beats.

it seems as though a lot of people, and especially belgian party-organizers, have some serious listening to do...

The unfortunate reality of the situation is that most people have the intellectual capacity of a pair of socks.

First of all most people don't know what is trance. They think that is just BAM BAM BAM from the speakers and nothing more.
People can't or even don't want to understand what real elecronic music culture means. They have some old stereotypes about electronic dance music, and you'll never change them.
Just ignore those people, trying to change their point of view it's just a waste of time and energy.

Trance is also about how the music drives you to a different world...................I need my daily dose of trance to keep my energy up all day!! People have to listen to trance and realize how this music will change their state of mind!!

I love all kinds of music but I really think I can't live without TRANCE

FUCK KNOWS

This thread seems to coem around all the time, and i i guess it just comes down to the fact we liek wot we like, and if someoen doesnt feel the tingle down there spine for trance, and they do for sommit else who are we to argue.

if we all liked the same things it would b a boring world

IMO people dont understand Trance because the genre is associated with the commerical cheese that we piss on. Since cheese is shit, people think trance in general is shit.
