Originally posted by DJFreaq Yea +1 for the more deep progressive end of Psy. Ticon, Cosma (can get tweaky and full on, but mostly dark and brooding), Atmos, Son Kite, Freq. That is the sort of psy I'm into. The full on stuff is fantastic in small doses (Astrix, 1200 Mics etc) and even the more commercially appealing "psy" i love and listen to (Infected Mushroom being the most obvious example.) But yea. This is more a subject geared for a "psy" thread. But you wanted to know my thoughts on it. And there you go.

Yeah this is the stuff I'de get into, but I just can't stand the really bangin' stuff that seems to go nowhere, with the big BOOMing bass and the squelching acidy noises that IMO are annoying. Maybe fine in small doses (haha) but to listen to a full set with that stuff would get on my nerves. If I wanted stuff like that i'de just listen to a techno set, without the acidy noises that get on my nerves lol. I just love music with emotion, atmosphere and spaciousness..deepness, because I am this way and think this way so I like music that connects with who I am as a person. I like stuff that is for your mind, your body and your soul hehe. Hence my signature...

Originally posted by Floorfiller i just thought i'd say this. we got a lot of people around here these days that don't seem to appreciate what we contribute to the boards so i don't know about the rest of you, but i'm going to stop contributing. these are the same people that rely on us to ID their unknown tracks, fill in their dj tracklists, give them new tune suggestions that are "spacey" or "vocal" or "chill"... seriously why are we wasting our time? we all spend a lot of time researching music and finding tunes that we love...we should just stop sharing that with all of these people that are always bitching... let's face it, those that actually have a genuine interest in talking about music around here are sadly in the minority. i don't remember the last time i actually got a decent answer or good suggestion on this board...i can't remember the last time i found out about a tune on TA that i hadn't already known about...and when i do it's always the same ten people coming through with great sugestions. meanwhile we are excited to share music tastes and ideas with each other just so people with little radio shows can lurk and snatch up some good tracks that we suggest for their show next week. it's just a bunch of crap. i mean we've already lost the TA battle to a bunch of people that are either promoting their average new tune or their cookie cutter radio show...and those that are just getting into the genre and think they know everything... it sucks the most for those people that actually appreciate the suggestions of the TA "elitists" and want to expand their personal taste, but unfortunately the majority is ruining it for those people... but really...lets keep our knowledge and opinions to ourselves. then where will TA be? it'll be a bunch of kids arguing about which tune on ASOT was the best that week, struggling to find new fresh music, wanting to know what that tune that dj played on that radio show was, and wishing they could get some suggestions for some "classics"... we've tried our best to keep this site full of info, but we've lost...it's not our problem anymore.

oh no please don't leave us you're just so awesome

LOL what a joke

who the hell are you?

I for one have learned a lot about music from TAs. Two years ago I had never heard of Nick Warren... I mean, how noob is that? Now I love his stuff.

Point is, I'm grateful to everyone who's ever offered me a suggestion, whether I liked it or not, and if I ask a stupid question sometime, it's because I genuinely don't know and want to learn. EDM is still a fairly new genre to me, so I don't think it's possible for me to contribute the thoughtful posts that some more experienced TAs can.

I understand it's frustrating that so many people ask stupid questions. That's the nature of the genre, especially here in the United States: it's relatively new and the mainstream public doesn't have a real large knowledge-base of it.

But without the 'elitists' as FF terms them, I don't think I'd know anything about EDM at all, and I'd probably be sitting in a dark room somewhere listening to emo 24/7. So thank you, for saving me from that fate.

If you can't grasp what's being discussed in this thread don't even bother to post. Sometimes it's a VERY good idea to read more than just the first f'in post.

Some troll. I've seen him being a turd-burgler in other threads. He's a waste of kilobytes on Swamper's server if you ask me. Most his posts are negative and rude.

it has some hints of tech-trance too

In many countries, there is not much (if any) radio stations playing trance, so we ask. Everybody knows internet stations, but it's not the same.
