Aight, thanx to Ray Munns all you guys are been able to get to see Oaky spinning, and lets not be selfish, lots of people out there dont even know that this stuff exists, and MTV will be able to bring this sound to them, and if you didnt know, one of Gatecrashers goal is to take CENTRAL USA and teach them what good clubbing is, and UK clubs as a whole to teach the american record companies, and radio station that there's DANCE music ..
Well.. as of trance been big, here in south FL has growned big time, you hear commercials for cd's like CLUB NATION, the new TIMO MASS,the DARUDE CD, and more... now all the HIT radio stations have trance tune... is either Ian Van Dhal, Darude, or etc... even some Contemporany radio station is starting to play CLUB music on sat nights.. something that I never thought that such radio station would do.. so here TRANCE is picking up big time.. rest of US should follow :-)

yeahhh that'll be great. here in toronto there's ALWAYS club music and experimental and other forms of electronic music being played @ night a lot. it's really cool. it's like tuning into a shoutcast ya know? toronto's had this kinda stuff for a LONG time now. you just gotta look for it.

new york city used to be really bad when it came to playing this music though lately theyve been playing alot of commercial stuff and they even have live from webster hall every friday night on one of the stations...but its cool to be blasting your trance in the car and people looking at you not cause its loud, but theyve never heard that stuff before believe it or not

I was jamming to my MP3 player on the bus the one day and somebody was like "what are u listening to?" I told her and she told everybody on the bus to be quiet and they listened the whole ride home LoL. The funny thing is I had no clue they were quiet...

I turned to trance in 1998 to get away from MTV and all the popular music, i wanted to find a quality genre that was not exploited by mainstream radio stations and MTV programs

MTV. The bottom line for this corporate mongul (sp) is making money. They don't care about pushing Trance, they only started promoting trance is because Trance music was kicking some butt in the dance/music industry in UK, catching on in US, Canada, and other countries. They are just following the trends. MTV just a bunch of moochers off the subculture. I could care less if MTV was involved in pushing this genre to the public, cuz TRance movement can be just as successful without it.
