For most trance events, most def. But when Tiesto or like Armin come to town, the mixture is slightly better.

House def brings out a bigger mixture (especially like Donald Glaude or Miguel Migs). I don't think it's even so much because of musical taste, but the perspective is that house is classy EDM, lol. I dunno, just saying shit.

Nah its true, also from ALOT of observation....the less breakdowns the more girls (again isn't true for big name artists), the way kicks are...especially in certain forms of house, is similar as hiphop's constant bassline which I think makes people WANT to dance.

Funny, cause I think I see less dancing at house events compared to trance events. Think house events to some people are dance when you want to, stand around (on the dancefloor) and talk to friends when you don't. Or maybe trance peeps just go crazier.

When a good house DJ opens for a trance DJ, crowd gets really into it though.

I guess you see less jumping up and down frantically at house events, though I've been known to do it alot, during tracks I like.

From what I have seen at least from two years ago. Trance or EDM for that matter is not being played on the mainstream radiostations or your MTV's. The thing thats in is going to "shows" or going to a "hiphop" club. My point isnt that people dont go, its not enough. Trance should be HUGE right now. However its not, why? well the mainstream media had a smear campeign agaist anything EDM. "Go to raves you will get stuck with dirty needles" or "go to trance clubs and you could end up getting drugged". So all this Fear gained its own momentum within our society, Being a raver is considered this "diry" thing to be. This is ofcourse what ive seen in califonia over the past 8 years now. Girls want to bring there sexy back, and they want to shake it like a salt shaker. EDM is still 20 years young, and its always evolving. Now im not knockin any gnre here, but EDM did get shafted because of what the news made it stand for. I live in frisco now and we have an EDM radio station, BUT IT BITES ASS! worst programming, so I got siruis and I get to listen to PVD and Paul oakenfold so im ok for now.


Quick fix: Take fliers from the promoters and pass them out to girls or people you want to see at the club. The art of promoting has changed now they have people just handing out fliers to who ever. Hand them out to people you would like to see at the parties. Sorry long ass rant, but I feel like the music isnt being reached out to as many people as it should be.

Unfortunately, you can't flaunt yourself at an EDM club as much as you can at a hip hop club when they bust out "Miss New Booty" and drunk girls start bringing the stripper in them out in the open =P.

LOL!

I think more females go to trance events in L.A. than they do in S.F.
...at least, that has been my observation.

lol no miss shooting thang, same amount of girls go to events up here. :-P not everything you hear about frisco is true

Seconded. For example if you go to Vanguard the girl guy ratio is decent compared to Trance centric clubs. From a music standpoint Girls probably cant do their saxy moves to 138-142 BPM trance music. But to 124-130 BPM house music they can do movements that go with their bodies easier. So maybe house music is easier for them to dance to, rather than the pure jumping around you have to maintain to dance to trance music. I donno thats my philosophy. I think its also up to the promoters to create a venue that welcomes females. Avalon is house centric club but they have not set an environment for women to have fun there. Vanguard has that in its Patio and VIP area where females go to get away from the groping. If you go out to the outside area you will almost see a 40/60 ratio of girls to guys, which is almost better than hip hop clubs.

this whole world is a cock fest, why would edm clubs be any different.
