I'd like to have what he's having

trance is about the most inhibited, tightly constructed form of electronic music out there
So in this thread would I be considered cliche for having a picture I took at Haleiwa Beach of the sunset here in Hawaii as my avatar?

It depends. Do you pop a woodie when you look at it?

and i get a good laugh whenever someone disagrees
there's a reason why in trance, everything keeps getting recycled and it's not because trance producers are any less talented than other producers. (well, maybe more lazy lol)
i think early 90s trance started the whole dolphin ocean thing, because at that time many people had their first ibiza/goa/new age experiences and it was legitimate to complete that feeling with pictures and music videos:
i think that is a good example, it somehow feels "right" because it isnt "staged" or "fake" but expressing some kind of lifestyle.
but nowadays most trance is a caricature of itself, recycling those ideas to infinite gayness and praising false heroes over the internet. yeah pretty much.

Because beaches are long. You can't really have epic journeys full of emotion and the feeling of escapism in a jungle.
