yea, you're right. i spent a week up in toronto, and their so-

called "dance" radio station, 103.5 was horrible. all they played

was cheesy, over simplified radio edits.

Sorry, My mistake. i was hearing some set mixed by pacou and one track "Christian Bloch - Infidelity" sounds like Ferry's Rock Your Body

Actually, i think that rave is a genre. Me and my fellow nationals call this thing we hear from our neighbours (Spain) the "spanish rave". I think the spanish people call it Rave too.
It is actually electronic music difficult to classify, because it has many eurodance elements, but it a happy hardcore bassline and a few more acid sounds. It is very much like Nick Skitz, but with spanish samples and a much more faster and harder beat. It is one of the worst things i've listened.

I don't know how big is it in Spain 'cause i've never been to a spanish rave party, but just that you know, house is usually considered the biggest scene in the iberian peninsula, with a truckload of labels based in Spain and a truckload of dj's here in Portugal. However, i've never seen a house party in the TV, but i see spanish rave parties all the time, with lots of people dancing and usually a dj with a good technique playing.

If you want to know more, listen to 666 - Alarma, it's easy to find on soulseek...

I consider a few Benassi tunez to be pretty good (mainly his remixes but 2 songs off his EP are good) like his remix of Sonique's Alive and Outkast's Ghetto Muzik.

Anyways some guy was stupid enough to call trance music made by computers . He also listed Nine Inch Nails as one of his favourite bands, can you say ignorance .

So? Isn't trance made by computers? That's why they call it electronic music.

When people ask, I just say its like Dance music. Not that this is true, but to the average nontrancer when you start to explain it, they get ALL confused. And to save a long and tiring conversation, this method sadly works the best.

Ah yes but most people think making EDM is a 15 minute work in dance eJay or something like that (anyone remember this wsoftware ). I like how those who listen to hip hop loosetheir minds when i point out that there was a hip hop eJay also, andits interesting to hear that wahts made in there isnt real hip hop

My point was that all music is to a certain point and that people assume that you can hit a "generate EDM song" button and thats it.
