There's a word that sums up this sort of behaviour, and that word is 'reject.'

While that's true, going mainstreme means there will be more producers because of more fans so even though there will be a lot of so so tracks, there will be quite a few good tracks too. Eventually new ideas will come to trance like it did to almost all music.

No, but doing that work enables me to not have to make obnoxious commercial music to survive.

I dont agree. If you look back when trance was underground there were lots of quality productions though there were not as many producers as today.

Well, Jam el Mar did always have an ear for commercial music. I've a compilation that has P.ower Of A.merican N.atives alongside stuff like Urban Cookie Collective, Bad Boys Blue, 2 Unlimited, Q-Tex... really, a lot of euro dance.

Trance was mainstream to a degree right from the get-go. It just never caught on as such until the late 90's when euro 'techno' was a busted buzzword.

I'd give it all away for free, and encourage people to share what they like.

I'd encourage partygoers to dress more festively when they go out instead of "sophisticated and chic"

I wouldn't let little kids rolling their faces off through the door(!)
Actually, all people who are obnoxiously fucked up should be removed, they gave the world the wrong impression of the music and really really hurt it, people who can get fucked up responsibly can stay.

I would put all DJ's behind a curtain, or find some other way to make the crowd not face the DJ and stare at him the entire party, and instead focus on dancing and on the dancefloor.

I would put the artists who give their music away, use creative commons licenses, have day jobs(read: not in it for the money) at the top of that silly top100 list.

Actually, I would get rid of that top100 list! And all the stupid dj gossip and vain hypefest media, and replace it with a true alternative media that does not cover the scene in such a shallow fashion.

I would remove all our stupid buzzwords (such as "progressive", "underground", "classic", "omfgIdie", "anthem", half of that huge retarded list of genre classification, etc) from the vocabulary.

I would encourage people to sound different, make uniqueness the feature that is valued above the others.

I would throw out all the kids who want to horde trance into their own little group of friends, all those kids who wish the doors to the party would shut after they got there, everyone who is shelfishly trying to keep it all in their own silly little subculture. All the kind of people who want to inhibit trance from spreading to the people who want to hear it would have to be removed somehow.

I would ensure that no trance music related paraphanelia ever be made into stickers that kids put on their cars, t-shirts, soundbites in the background of tv shows, samples for radio station blurbs, commercials, TV show theme songs, fads for high school children, cell phone rings(!), obnoxious web page background music, patches that kids sew onto their clothes, hats(especially the trucker hats), and any other random silly trends. Instead trance music would be available only as an object in the form of music that one listens to for the fun of it, NOT background material for marketing!

I would give ameteurs and enthusiasts the same oppurtunity for making and spreading music as the big league pros who have access to high end equipment and record companies.

I have much more, but its kind of depressing to write out all this stuff because I know I don't have the ability to acheive any of it.

I meant prevent the crowd from worshipping the DJ, the show shouldnt be about worshiping the iconic DJ, the center of attention shouldnt be the DJ, it should be the party itself, which was the whole reason for typing

"or find some other way to make the crowd not face the DJ and stare at him the entire party, and instead focus on dancing and on the dancefloor."

I can make you sound just as stupid by only quoting part of your post and taking it out of context, learn to read.

i didnt take anything out of context, the context is obvious through the thread, and the sentence i quoted was not dependent on any of the other sentences.

and i know what you meant, i was just showing you the implications of it, because it seemed like you are either unaware of it, or just plainly forgot it.

i was thinking about this the other day belive it or not - if trance ever had problems i.e. trance producers stopped making trance i would continue the quality style that has kept me listening to trance since 98' and get as many ppl as possible making more tunes !

i havent ever tried properly to produce trance but i would give up my life to learn how if trance stopped being made !

p.s. im learning now!
