inb4 musical taste is subjective.

My defence of epic house would be the mixes in my sig.

Well when you say House are you referring to straight-up House music? Or Progressive, Electro, Minimal, Tech House, etc... as well?

I suspect you'll find it challenging to defend a genre that doesn't exist.

I know there are a billion different styles of House, but Tech, Minimal, and Progressive House are what people mostly listen to, right? It all depends on taste, but I was just wondering why you guys like it so much? From a technical, or musical standpoint, why does it appeal? Again, I'm not trying to piss off anyone, just asking questions.

psy-trance is the most well structured style of EDM music. even those who don,t like it should at least acknowledge that it is the most well produced style and also most diversified.

Ambient?

Also must say, I quite like progressive house (so long as its reasonably long and decent) now. I guess house is like the genre between uptempo (140bpm+) stuff and downtempo (120bpm-)... so its sometimes useful for those moods.

What does it mean that a style is "well structured"?

boring and predictable?

fail. Full on somewhat compared to other stuff, however theres certainly much worse, and the simple fact that its usually over 6 minutes means the songs have to have a well layed out structure and idea to keep them interesting for that long.

Well I guess with psy theres certainly a lot more effort put into synth programming, hence why you see much more varied sounds... as well as sounds that actually change along with the melody/groove and change throughout the song. Again, this isn't true for all psy... some of its starting to become more similar, and less effort put into, but thats the stuff I want to get away from and don't like anyway.

Well I'd say probably not but, examples of more varied genres?
