This topic always annoys me.
Every time the general consensus is that eventually everybody grows out of trance and moves on to something that is better, as if it is some fact of life, some step that every person goes through. People mouth off as if this is something everybody experiences, as if we all start off listening to trance then "move up in the world of EDM".
Its a fabrication, a lie, bullshit. Real people don't always necessarily start off listening to trance then move on to prog then to something else, this isn't something that everybody faces, this is a TranceAddict story and nothing more. In real life people are much more diverse, not everybody goes through these steps, im so sick of people acting like starting with trance then changing to breakbeats is some fact of life when it isn't. Sure, you are probably correct in saying that the majority of people who are new listeners of EDM are listening to trance, but that doesn't mean that everybody "grows out of it".
Seriously, it is very VERY easy to find people who take different paths other than this one that people act like is the only one that exists just because lots of kids on this board have done it. It is very easy to find people who started off with something different, moved to a different genre in a different direction.
Beleive it or not, most of the newbies just getting into EDM in my region start off with grimey DnB, then move to grimey breaks, then they eventually get over it and start listening to music that is less obnoxous. People like this are everywhere, lots of people start off with prog and get bored of it then "move up" to other things, some people even act as if they have graduated out of following one genre then start listening to trance.
There is no such thing as this silly hierchy of genres that we make up here at tranceaddict like some ladder of life that we all climb. What really happened was that people on this board started doing this, then other people imitated them because they thought it was cool, then suddenly everybody was acting the same way. This isnt reality, this is just some silly thing kids on this website are doing.
People start out listening to all sorts of music, they get bored of all kinds, there is no graduating from trance and moving to techno train that everybody follows. Some people are actually doing the opposite, some people, believe it or not, aren't growing out of it. This isnt some scientific process, so stop acting like it is ffs .
People arent that predictable, there are hordes out there that don't follow this pattern but we just keep ignoring them thinking the whole world works like our little forum. Crikey this gets annoying.

Maybe I should turn some of this typing energy into something more productive.
