YES, its true, AMEN!



The sad thing is that, its like people have lost any objective musical criteria...they will just follow the hype, and they will tend to like it in the end. Even the same producers that play these stuff don't like it. I know from first hand about a progressive producer who got into this "electro-buzz-trash" sound. In his own words? "Today's music and especially EDM industry is very demanding because it strives. You have to get them what they like or else you will die. At the moment people just like to move their bodies at this shit.So, be it, i have no other choice then give them what they like. There is no other way to get money, signs for my tracks and gigs". Yes, this is what they probably most producers think.


And even we like it even if we don't, its very hard to call today's EDM "underground". How can it be "underground" when everything is a click away in Beatports and Audiojelly? Everything has become so easy, so chip, so plastic. I mean, i remember that being a dj was to enter that dodgy underground store and buy the long-forgotten EP (in vinyl) by Resistance-D with 4-5 amazing tracks that non one had. Now its just press a click in the site and you have it. You and the other 4000 sheep that follow the hype, which in turn is produced by other 4000 sheep that follow the money. Its "sad but true" (to quote an old orbital tune from "snivilisation").

I can't wait to hear what Peter Martin and Derek Howell have cooking this year. Although I still think "Cram It Up" was absolute rubbish.

2006 was the year that it really kicked off, with the Breezeblock special in January. 2007 looks even better, with albums from Plastician, Skream and DJ Distance coming in the first quarter.

It's quite sad that TA seems completely oblivious to its existence. Most people here live in a trance/house bubble. I haven't seen much urban music being discussed at all. Your loss.


You really do live in your own little try-hard elitist bubble don't you? lol.

agreed. Trance for driving, cleaning the house, etc. House for dancing. If you can't dance, stick to trance

lol, you can dance to trance just as well as house...maybe YOU just don't know how. The melodic atmosphere that it gives also makes it more enjoyable, imo. The only difference really is the bpm. It also depends on the song...not ALL trance is FOR dancing.

And if you were to take everything out of dance music and just have beat, it would get rather annoying.

How does one dance to trance? Let's say you take the same dancing one would do to house, and do it to trance. The increase in BPM would make it a bit difficult right? Unless there's some type of dance

Bob bob, stand in spot for two minutes during breakdown, jump jump.

yeah, that's why I can't stand dancing to trance unless it's hard or tech trance.. those breakdowns make me want to put on skates and glide like Brian Boitano

Don't get me wrong, I love trance, just not at a club when I'm prepared to dance. The house I like actually has some trancey melodic sounds to it but mixed in with tech or tribal and a consistent beat. The best djs can blend different genres, imo.

It isn't difficult at all i can asure you
But as you might have figured out it a matter of personal taste what you prefer to dance to.
I myself can't (or don't prefer to) dance to stuff below 134bpm because the tempo itself bores me out. 140bpm and beyond is the only way to go!

And about the dancing, if you ever went to a place were people
'dance to trance' you will notice that everyone has his or her individual style go move with the music. Simply, you don't have to move in a certain way to be 'dancing' because then you will never feel the 'trance' in you! It's the music that controls your body and not yourself. And as i wrote it's very much possible to move with higher bpms if you do it freestyle. But i understand your statement if you would try to sync 'the robot' to 160bpm or something
