But I do admit it gets boring too fast.
Still sounds cool, though.
If you don't listen to it more than 4-5 times a day.

99% of it goes click-click-pop-buzz, and not much else.

This is the most boring dance music climate I've heard in ten years. Only a few artists here and there, like Agoria or Gregor Tresher, make any of it palatable. Only a few DJs, like Digweed or Vath, seem to have any sense left at all.

I'm open to suggestions, because on the surface of things, the situation is mind-numbing.

Ya know, I was about to give a few suggestions as to djs to listen to or producers to check out but it seems like you have already made up your mind. I'm not gonna argue with you but it sounds to me like you just aren't searching hard enough for what you want. Hope you come around because there really is a lot of great music out there right now.

After listening to a few dozen livesets, none of which I found particularly enjoyable or memorable, and sifting through several hundred records, all of which sound about equally bland, it's begun to eat at me.

Sorry if it comes through as bitter and hostile, but I've really made an effort to uncover appealing music right now, and have become frustrated at how much I have to dig to find anything of slightest interest to me. Slam, Gregor Tresher, Agoria, Tiger Stripes, SCSI-9, and Prydz are all putting out decent work, but none of it comes close to progressive a few years ago, or trance in the 90s.

I'm tempted to say it's purely a function of BPM. Almost everything is too slow for me right now. The melodic aspects are also important, but probably secondary. Third, all this buzzy analog bass is piss-poor substitute for the solid basslines of the past.
