Well prejudice towards people will never help a scene grow...so you dont help that much. Anyway... EDM will never be big in America, because Americans tend to like what is forced fed them through the airwaves...if they hear something on the radio a million times they like it. There will be the exception of tunes that will reach the masses (Beautiful Things, Satisfaction, Sandstorm, Kernkraft etc) but they are few and far between. For example....i used to play Tiesto (circa 99) all the time in my car driving to clubs...and most, if not all, of the people that i played it to said Tiesto sucked..he played cheese shit blah blah blah...NOW today with Tiesto's popularity and tunes being hammered on American radio these same critics swear they loved Tiesto when i did. I don't think EDM not getting big in America has really anything to do with with anything but the fact that it is, for the most part, vocal less...Americans like nice vocals that they can sing in the shower, in front of the mirror or driving in their car....thats why 90% of the EDM tunes that the masses do like have vocals...and why DJ Sammy, Amber, Lasgo and the such are considered gods of the EDM scene to Americans (17-28years old).

I've been into the scene since '98. But I guess that doesn't make me a veteran by any stretch. Ah well, I'm off my soapbox now. I'm just going to stand in the corner and interject with my comments when needed. Which they generally aren't

Not for nothing....but why would you want the EDM scene to get big in America...lol.....for the most part everything American youth gets it's sticky fingers on turns to shit in 4 years.....masses always kill shit.

I always liked in underground/low key/whatever.....but eh thats me....

Reason i WONT go see Tiesto in NYC anymore is not because of candy kids/ravers..it is because of conformists who heard hom in the radio and heard he won some meaningless award and now they flock to see him by the thousands and swear oh swear that they never liked JP, DT or any other DJ that they used cock ride while doing bumps of K.

My responses would have been the same regardless of who started the thread, bar changing gender when appropriate

I responded based on the words she typed and the message she put across, not what she looks like or who she is.

ps. Bring the Lacey av back

u got me

Now this post made me smile a tad

But, as you told me, they have just as much a right to party as you do. Even though they still suck.
