He didn't say it was just white people. He said it was dominated by white people. Not the same thing.

Why is nearly every sport dominated by non white people?

well even that isn't really true...i'd say the asian trance fans are just as large a group as the white kids...it just depends what your perspective is...

It depends where you are in the world too. Caucasians are the "racial" majority in the U.S. so to see them dominate the scene in the States is to be expected.

Go to an EDM event in Japan though, and tell me the scene is dominated by white people.

So anyway, as far as EDM goies, the answer is that Trance has the least influence from African American music/rhythm. It was invented by European/white guys. While Techno, House, Jungle, Hip Hop, were invented by African American gentlemen, hence their African American rhythmic influence and relatively greater popularity amongst African Americans (at least at some point)! In general, those of African descent will prefer more rhythmic music, and "white" people or those of non-African descent will prefer more European, melodic, harmonic music. As it has been throughout history, crackerjack.

Duh.

Trance may be dominated by white people. But they are worshipping a black art form.
