i think that's the 12894636124634th time he gets bashed for his nick today

I agree. But since crap is easy to make.. it is wide in circulation. I agree with you though. Again, this is what some dude posted on some website, his/her opinions.

once again, i dont think you even put any personal input into this thread, other then the fact that im missing some screws in my head. Which unfortunately is probably true, but something i can not control.

ps im not called sandstorm, i do have a real name.

Well if some dude posted it on his website, then it must be true

Trance isnt dead, its still alive and healthy, just not discussed on tranceaddict anymore because most tru trance fans have found other message boards where we talk about the positives and tunes that make us feel good, instead of the drama you have to deal with on this board.

PS: I only come on here now to check for DJs playlists, and occasionally will get sucked into one of these stupid threads.

Okay. I don't know your real name, sorry.

How i feel is this. I think that low quality music has had an important impact on trance. Due to this I agree with the guy's website. However, I also think that the life-cycle of the genre has come to the full front. We as listeners are looking for something with a different feel to it and all we have been getting lately is remixes of old tracks or new tracks that have been mimics of the older tunes. This of course doesn't apply to everything because we have seen good efforts and we will continue to find them. I just think that quality has dropped due to people getting major money and therefore declining in talent.

When it comes to the states, we're still blind to EDM. I don't know what's it gonna take but I'm really tired of EDM labeled as Techno here in the states, and/or going to club and listening to Jan Wayne, Lasgo, Sammy, Acosta and etc. Miami is not helping musch either, but it has made a dent for sure.

i dont think many people here in ny/boston even know Jan Wayne, Lasgo, Sammy, Acosta...

they all listen to rap, or the danny's/sander


alot of people are complaining trance is dead, 99% of them could not even tell you what trance is in the first place.

I am assuming you are talking about record sales here, and if you are, you are way wrong. Sales are so low, artists and labels are happy if they break even. If anything quality has dropped way off because artists have had to go get real jobs to pay the bills and spending less time in the studio.

Less money= getting real jobs= less time in studio= less creativity

Not talking abour record sales. World class DJs make millions on gigs and playing live, this drops their production qualities which were better before they were world known.

Exactly. U.S. = blind to EDM. And those that know a little bit, know garbage.
