Ill tell you why white people dominate the trance scene. When you goto parties theres always like good looking, clean cut people. People who listen to EDM i believe have higher standards. They have a higher standrd of living...and i higher standard of music. Thats why i think trance is the best

Strange. I went to a hip hop night, and it was mostly dominated by white Backpackers.

That's Del for ya', though...

I suspect that it's just a cultural difference. Black American culture is dominated by dick-swinging egotism, which is anathema to the ethos of original trance (not to be confused with the Barbie-crack that big name dj's spin these days).

Originally, trance was more in tune with the Eastern philosophy of transcending the self, which is the antithesis of the swaggering self-glorification endemic to American popular culture in general.

Either that or white men can't dance

Funny because black people pretty much invented EDM...there were many black people doing disco records in the 70s...disco evolved into house which trance and techno eventually came out of. Same thing with rock n roll, black people invented it but how many rock bands have black members?

Pretty much they invent the music then rich white people take it over and exploit it.

it's not about race, its about how you live your life
trance and other EDM listeners tend to be very liberal living
look at where most EDM producers are at.... Europe.
America is dominated by consumerism, and to the brainwashed, trance is "strange". Unacceptable.

Aaannd....that's where trance was invented. By white guys. Though techno and house and rap were invented in the US and they're "dominated" by "black" people. If it wasn't for liberal living black americans, very likely you wouldn't be here right now. And there are more "white" people in america than other races. Therefore, assuming you're right, even if america was more "liberal", "trance" would very likely still be dominated by "white" people. So in the end, what the hell are you going on about?

You see, it is about "race" or rather, about cultural music origins and their influences on different EDM styles. How so? It has been explained in the thread already.
