There is also much more technology and a higher standard of living in Japan. Japan pioneered most synthesizer and drum machine developments between the late 70's and early 90's. There are many possible reasons for there being more EDM producers in Japan than China, only one being that there is less oppression. Nevertheless, I don't see what all this has to do with the topic. Unless you're trying to say that "white" people wouldn't dominate trance if China and India and similar countries were less oppressed. As if all of the sudden millions of people would take up synthesizers as they had always dreamed of during their lives working in the rice fields fantasizing about Tiesto, and start making really kickass trance. It's more of a standard of living and poverty issue than an oppression issue. Possibly.

Oh well. I'm outsky. I just realized why I stopped doing this. Because it sucks.

Why is there award ceremonys solely for "black" music, Hence the M.O.B.O awards (Music Of Black Origin). I dont see any M.O.W.O. awards around

Because in the whole scheme of things, not much good music is made by white people.

Duh!

I didn't kno that was true, that only blacks made techno and house?? anyone else wanna verify this?

I kno people catorigise rap as edm, but its so completely different that its kinda pointless puttin it under edm just cause they uses samples and loops and have a very basic basic electronic music pattern.

electronic dance music, i dont consider rap dance music, eventhough its obvious u can dance to it. And yea its electronic to a point, but compared to house, trance, techno, its no where near the same and i dont think should be put in the same catagory

it is considered EDM because it is made using electronic equipment
(drum machines, sequencers.. etc...)
there is absolutely no real instruments used
plain and simple

Dead wrong. It totally depends on the hip hop artist. Dr. dre uses real instruments all the time. Almost all of his basslines from Chronic 2001 were performed and recorded from a real bassist. Kanye west records real string musicians on almost all of his beats. Outkast record real brass musicians. The Roots are almost entirely instrumental, even the drums are recorded.

Hip Hop has a lot of electronic elements... but the majority of people who actually listen to it would not refer to it as EDM.

You dont have to believe me, I really don't care what you think, Why would I want to lie about this, Im not gaining anything from it.


Actually - you are not beyond that - your first account 'THE ROOKIE' was suspended because you were acting like an ass on the forums. You didn't like my reply in a thread and as such left me this feedback:

quote:

Since I see that your probably never going to reopen my account.. I'll talk to some people about shuting this site down for unfair practices [I saved the statements everyone made and highlighted the statement you made about me and grammar school, very unproffesional].

It's either you re-open my account for that bullshit that happened or I go and talk to some guys about shutting this site and if not that I will definately talk to these 2 very good Hackers I know personally and just ruin your little site. Do the right thing and there won't be any more problems.


Sorry, you're not welcome here. Bye.
