As if most of us spend countless hours searching for tracks and records we like, paying money to see DJs we enjoy, putting time and effort into mixes full of "house" music, just to join the bandwaggon, JUST so we can come on little old tranceaddict and have different music taste than Australian GQ, so that we can all tell him his taste sucks. Yes. Thats exactly why I love house (and all those other genres you might not be familiar with). Do fuck off already. Really. We're all tired of it. Or at LEAST, at the very least, stop making completely asinine statements such as these. It really boggles my mind that after you've been shown that no one likes you here, you'll keep digging, and keep picking at the scab with stupid posts like this... And yes, we will get into that, because you just opened up the can of worms yourself...

i agree with the guy below you, settle down. i threw out a pretty open ended statement, i never specifically said who i was referring too. so why are u freaking out?

Mine was good, towards the end of the year I finally broke my habit of just listening to the same old GU and Bedrock CDs and got into some electro, tech and minimal. Still feel out of my depth with the amount of music but I suppose I always will.

Exactly, this way you could just round us all up into one bunch in a single quick sweep.

Because I will take every opportunity you present me with that allows me to expose you as a complete and utter knob. Also, I don't have a clue how old you are, but pretty much everyone on TA posts from work, rarely does anyone work a job which has 0 downtime, and finally, thats a stupid argument anyway, but something typical of you, since that was the LEAST important issue my post raised.

As further notice, anytime you make a dumbass remark like that in the future, expect me to be right there to chew you up and spit you back out in similar fashion, it's far too easy, and far too much fun to pass up... Either that, or start acting with respect, though I doubt you could inject any back into your reputation on here, since it has pretty much gone to shit...

I might edit this to make sure it is the caliber of other posts in this thread later, but for now let me explain it very simply.

I dove in.

Before this year I was just an internet nerd. I was a bedroom DJ listening to nothing but livesets. But with a move to Atlanta, getting somehow stuck with the best promoters (and friends) I'll ever find, and actually getting out and doing what I had come to love, this year has indefinitely sealed itself as the best year of my life. I've done so much in so little time, that I can't fully post it all here. Thank you to everyone, and you know who you are.

This has definitely been the year for The Timewriter and Plastic City Records. Their 'Soulstickers' album was absolutely fantastic. There has been a whole heap of great compilations from Plastic City this year. In fact, The Timewriter was what got me into Deep House
Another artist worth mentioing is Hiroshi Watanabe.

Other compilations/albums worth mentioning are:

Trafik - Club Trafikana
Sultan - Yoshitoshi Montreal
Nick Warren - GU 30
Luke Fair - Balance 011

Other than that prog house still remains to be pretty non existent. Still alot of electro house shit being played by Dj's however not neally as much as back in 2006, thank fuck.

As for trance - it is continuing its downward spiral into a cheesy mould of utter shit.

Armin, Ferry, Tiesto and all those idiots continue to produce boring, uninspiring and predicitable tunes with little or no thought put into their work whatsoever.
Also, most tunes seem to have taken on the tech sounding bassline trend which sounds absolutely awefull. The biggest offenders of this category is probably Nic Chargall and Richard Durand. I hate Durand so much that he is an abomination. I can't beleive they call this shit trance.

This year I wasonly interested in sets done by will Holland, John Askew and Matt Hardwick. They are just about the only Dj's that still spin listenable uplifting and melodic trance.
Production wise I think Airwave has done some good work with his latest Lolo album 'One plus One Equal Three' as well as Miika Kuisma's 'Sententia although a bit tomm any chill out tracks for my liking but overall not a bad artist album.
