trance and genres....annoyances...
I think we can all agree that dividing music into weird, obscure genres gets annoying.
But does anyone else find it annoying when people oversimplify things and try to force them into a genre to which they don't belong?
Like one thing I recently realized is how many people (over here at least) listen to trance music but think there are only 2 kinds of trance - epic and psytrance. Which comes down to most of them labelling everything that's trance but not psytrance or goa as "epic."
The other day I was at this bar kinda place which is run by a psytrance DJ, but he plays all kinds of music there. And he was DJing some psytrance and decided to throw in a hard trance song. At which point some dude there had this reaction like "lol wtf ur playing epic d00d!"
Sadly, this is nowhere near the first time I've encountered that kind of thing, and I'm sure it won't be the last.
One thing that was kinda funny the other week, there was a special event at a club which usually plays psytrance on one of its floors, instead of psytrance they were having an event for hard techno, tech-dance, and hard trance kinda stuff and a bunch of the customers were like "whoa, this is some good psytrance today!"
Now, I don't expect people to know all the different trance genres, but it's annoying when people think there are only like 2 styles.
I guess it's not as bad as people who think all EDM="techno," but still...
