yeah and it's defined more by a 'feeling' and not by a particular soundset

kind of hard to get that same feeling with a different palette of sounds though.

Moombahton is the new hotness, yo!

Define legit.

I listen to trance and there are many "legit" tracks out there.

Are you talking about the scene?

Just like you, I'm getting bored with today's music. Deep and tech-house simply don't do it for me anymore, and this minimal techno stuff tends to get too repetitive ^^.

I've started listening to other genres as well.

nah, not at all. very little to speak of from a 'musical' standpoint. except for that one that went 'duh duh duh buh dub dub SOOOOUUUUULLL'

he didn't mean 'music with ideas', he meant 'ideas for the next cool new music'. and i don't think he's asking on account of his personal taste, more just out of interest as to what's going on culturally.

future garage boring? Sure.











conclusion: OP has turd taste.

distant forlorn burial-esque sped up vocal snippets, its so proper, its in such good respectable taste, i could listen to this for hours. when's the next dive bar gig?

the most legit genre in 2011 is ironically enough, music that pays homage to the retro era. in this case, it's breakbeat techno that was prevalent during the late 80's and early 90's.

Originally posted by stevö Dubstep ... too childish candy etard emo. overplayed. everyone's heard it already and is starting to get sick of it. zero cool points. Post Dubstep / Future Garage ... creative percussion! boring music. Tech house ... people woke up and realized this genre is a bunch of filler tracks. NOT cool anymore. Progressive house ("brogressive"?) ... ultra overload epic pop!!!! all the bells and whistles of 20 years of candy rave sounds, stapled and elmer glued all over a swedish house mafia track. 100% dancefloor effective. 0% cool. Discoey Deep house ... slow loopy edits of late 70's to early 80's disco. where all the minimal/tech house hipsters migrated to. this might be the closest candidate for current legit scene where sunglasses, mustaches, low v necks, and hippy headbands can take shelter, but its starting to die off because people are waking up and realizing the music is slow loopy edits of late 70's to early 80's disco. Conclusion: EDM ran out of ideas. now what?

I agree with this analysis. Basically the next step is for everyone to retire so that the new generation of producers can come in and steal old ideas, present them as their own, and not have anyone call them out on it because all the old heads that knew the old stuff are now gone.
