Originally posted by ucforange There's this site called Resident Advisor; they have their own top 100 DJ poll. Granted, you won't find trance there, but you will find a collection of DJs on that poll that would be considered "underground." The problem in the world of EDM today is that trance is like a bad word. If you let it be known that you're a fan of trance, you get looked at as if you have a dick plastered on your forehead. And quite frankly, for good reason. I went to the ASOT tent at Ultra this past March, and I was quite frankly embarrassed. More fruitiness in there then the Skittles factory. Left and went to the Ibiza tent and watched actual good DJs throw it down. But anyways, the good trance DJs (Orkidea, Solarstone, etc) are so overshadowed because the mainstream guys come off as fruity gayness. So the entire genre is dismissed by fans of other genres.

Fruity gayness, lol. Can get what you're saying - seems the dress code is akin to that of Gatecrasher circa 99.

If Solarstone or Orkidea were in there, would you have dealt with the embarrassment?

People who concern themselves with the politics of the scene tend to be boring cunts that talk about TA style topics out in a nightclub like it was their first time off of their leash. Its a fucking guy playing music to a bunch of people that want to get fucked up and get laid. Some want to hear good music, but I don't think you go to those types of parties.

People that want to be underground are massive bellends too. Nothing, and I mean nothing is underground anymore. It's literally impossible to be when you live in a world that in a few clicks of a mouse you can see an Iraqi school teacher do something to a camel that would cause a Victorian's head to implode.


Its a (guy/girl) playing music with (records/cd/mps/wav/wooden spoons) to a bunch of (drunk/high/aids/fire beaver) twats and assholes there for the (music/drugs/drugs/booze/minge/cock/bear anus/drugs/more anus/cowbell). You shouldn't care so much, because honestly it makes you look like a massive loser which is ironic in the sense that people want to be this "scene" because they think its cool. No. I've been around enough to tell you that you are the twats that makes women hold their purse tighter because of the jittery exited twat in the corner who isn't dancing but is happier than everyone in the place because he can pretend not to hear when people tell him to shut his minge when he constantly tries to "impress" people with his opinion that veracocha - carte blanche is actually an in depth trance opera bringing you to the
feudal bottle service dark ages of the scene in 1600's Bavaria. They say scene 700 times a night. They feel good because people always recognize them, but it isn't because they think you are cool and part of the super duper vibe omg sunset sunrise destination moon scene...it's because everyone in the club is given their picture to make sure that this person never finds out about the real party when the club closes. The party that actually resembles the "real deal" from yesteryear that you are writing about on your scene blog, while people are doing insane things on a dancefloor. So many dicks tits and pussies you need security googles.

Furthermore, you don't really seem to understand what you're talking about. Finally, Howard Stern has already done a "Vote For the Worst" scheme with American Idol. It lead to 6 more weeks of Sanjaya and a judge's seat on America's Got Talent. It certainly didn't dismantle anything worth dismantling.

Yeah I know that I've made some comments that are potentially divisive, but if people are so quick to take me for an idiot just because they don't see things the same way as me, they deserve to have their own idiocy exposed.

Interesting point re the vote for the worst one. Although I suspect she was still a far better singer than Paris is a DJ, and therefore the risk of this turning into a Frankenstein's monster seems negligible.

People still care about Dj Mag?

A lot of people don't, but would you like it to be worth caring about, or be replaced with a poll that was?

I'm sorry about the idiot thing, but i can't forgive the pedophilia.

I'm not wrong. You are going to a bloody night club. Unless it is to get you laid because this girl you know that loves black cock but has a hot roomate she could hook you up with type situation, you can leave that scene shit and Kofi Annan in the car. Roll the window down a bit though.

The even best part of these "scene" people trump the music, but aren't aware of anything out of their little shit taste lowest common denominator interpretive cunt bubble. Then after 13 weeks they always buy dj equipment and a pair of oakleys that were 700$ but would look better on your grandfather as he dads everyone. The people that listen to this shit will listen to this shit no matter what you do. Hell i troll the piss out of you genetically inferior music lovers like it was free costco hot dog day every day. We just a couple of pimps no hoes.

What kind of uptake does it get? Do they have any credibility issues, at all?

Bottom line people, if you think it'll do more harm than good, fine don't vote, but if you think that this could be even a step in the right direction, however small, what's the point in abstaining?
