It's not about personal taste. TigerClaw claimed that the tracks played on GDJB are original and innovative, which they aren't.

Nothing fucks me off more than a fan that thinks a DJ can do no wrong. There is a lot of good music out there. How some people can be so easily pleased is beyond my comprehension.

and you think you are original and innovative, and you aren't.

yeah my bad, i misunderstood your post.

but still, even if they are unoriginal, it's not your problem. go listen to something else and let the people who do like the fluffy formulaïc crap be happy

criticism pushes people, knowledge, art, etc forward, there is nothing wrong with it.

its called evolution . One day this would happen the good old days were gonna pass and the new sounds would emerge . The question is are you able to follow with the new sounds or stick with the originals ?

good point. however, the people who critisize Armin are Markus are a minority. they have a loud voice, but they're still a minority as opposed to those who cream their pants over every tune that is played on ASOT or GDJB. so the "evil three", as tta likes to call them, are unlikely to change their sound. it happens to be very popular at the moment.

Markus is totally different live btw, he drops a lot more techy records.

true stevebutabi . If you criticise smthin do it properly . I wont say trance sucks or progressive sucks or schulz sucks or tiesto sucks or van dyk sucks without a reason . From this thread 90% of the people just follow wat other people said cause there post look nice and sophisticate

as a gdjb played producer id just like to say, if u dont like the music then fuck off and listen to your shitty hardcore/hardstyle/cheese in a can above and beyond look at my synths look at my synths music and leave the music i and the other producers work the fuck alone.

if u dont like it, fuck off and dont listen, dont bitch cos about it cos it proves your some kind of fucking idiot who doesnt understand shit.

prog gone formulaeic? welcome to edm u dumb twats, all EDM is formulaeic, intro, main verse, outro... at its simplest

and dreamy sounding reverbed synths? hell yes and u know why? cos when u hear them u get that funny little feeling in your stomach which makes u happy and feel euphoric, THAT is why people use them, THAT is why people like them!

personally id like to hear the prog sound go both deeper and more uplifting into two seperate sub genres, cos i think that prog has a lot of life in it.

as for markus and armin killing prog, whats your problem? would you have even heard of it if it wasnt for them? simple answer... NO.

its idiots like the fools who bitch on this thread that kill the fucking scene, so once again shove ur mc prog label up ur arse and kindly fuck off back to your cyberkiddies munching 20 pills a night destroying their braincells and listening to music which is too fast to dance to for more than 30 seconds, leave the decent music to the people who understand/deserve it

Well, isn't all of this a bit silly? First of all, I'll say the obvious:

1. If you don't like something, don't listen to it.

2. If you don't like something, why do you insist on telling the World about it? You sad sad attention seeker you!

3. Not everyone is you- get over it!

4. There is NEVER any bad music, there are only opinions. Most of which should be kept to themselves.

5. Go do something creative.

Slow down there fireplug. Intro/main verse/outro! In EDM! And most every other kind of music! How formulaic!

I bet you'd like to make your livelihood off of the music you make eh Nick Thompson?

The only people who say there is never such a thing as bad music are the ones who listen to bad music.

actually all edm is formulaeic in that respect, it all follows the same basis of progression, true there are a lot of variations between those elements but they all contain them.

and yes of course id like to make a living from my music
