Of course, music taste is always something highly subjective, but I'm perfectly entitled to my opinion that 1993 trance is 10 times better than current trance, thank you.
im still wondering which track from this year stands taller than the "older" Li Kwan-Point Zero...produced in 1993...but hey thats my opinion
+1 for 1993

Too many people on this site act like musical missionaries trying to make others feel bad for enjoying the stuff that they like. There are ways to plug the stuff that you enjoy without being a jerk to people who like different stuff, a simple "I find this music too formulaic and not unique enough for my liking, and would rather listen to XXXXX" would be enough.
It is quite understandable to branch out to different styles of music, people do it all the time, but most of them don't feel the need to preach about it to others via web forums and proclaim that their newly found taste makes them more mature and part of a superior class of EDM fan.
We all go through this, we hear the same shit day after day then get online or go to some obscure venue in hopes of finding something different and exciting, is it really such a problem that people find armin different and exciting compared to what they were previously exposed to? If you get bored of it you can branch out to something different but why be such a party pooper to all those that you leave behind?
There is plenty of great 2006 music, I lost a giant heap of it in a hard drive failure last month . I agree that it isn't coming out of ASOT and that armin's camp is getting really poppy and unexciting, but you can't force kids to stop enjoying things if they like them. I guess we are falling into this trap that makes us think all people who like armin are being sheep and we just can't accept the fact that a bunch of people genuinely prefer his music.
you said it all

Of course, itīs only an opinion. So if someone more or less directly presents this opinion (very often in a negative and unconstructive way) in almost every thread, itīs really annoying. Like UnWordly said, those people think they can play some messiah-role or something..

noone can answer your "question" cause itīs your opinion. you said that. someone else would say another track, someone would agree with you thatīs life. but now this is a bit far from the origin of this debate.

obviously we are here, discussing a growing conflict arising with ASOT. This is the state of trance.

Its ok you like Li Kwan-Point and other stuff from 1993. Keep playing them over and over again for as long as you want, till year 2016 if you like. Go ahead and make Appreciation threads for them if you want and post nice stuffs, pics and love hearts in it.
But the point I want to make is, dont jump in into any other thread with Armin, Tiesto name on it and start bashing other people for not liking Li from 1993 and make a fool out of yourself in the process.

this is a music discussion thread open to both people who like ASOT and those who dont like ASOT

Ok you pinned me down their. I spelled excited wrong.
My post was not personally directed towards you, you never did, but a lot of other people jumping around with 'thick brain skulls' did.

No, we'll just do what we do each week, listen to whatever we want to, and not be surrounded by fanboys. You make it sound like we actually care that people like ASOT, we don't, it's their perogative to do so, but it's ours to listen to sounds that we find fulfilling ourselves.
