I especially like the part where he says "techno is a sub category of techno"...

lol, some people just don't understand. Trance is way different than techno.

Doesn't matter, you can't blame him...

When i first ever heard electronica i kept calling it Techno for over 3 months until i realised what it was...

i called everything techno from commercial to trance...and didn't know the difference...let the newbies ear develop.

well... trance does come from techno, and techno from house...

but nowadays, techno and trance are two different things, and people forget their history lessons

I get into that argument with a friend of mine in Ohio all the time. Eventually, I started yelling at him b/c I had gotten annoyed (eight months of getting it wrong was enough) and he finally corrected himself.

I know what you guys are saying, but here's the thing. This guy has been exposed to trance for some time. He has a polish friend who's into it, as well as me. He just surprised me with his comments.

Where are all these Polish people? I search, and find none. :/ grrr

you know, i found out that when you try to educate people about this you end up looking like an arrogant smartass... cuz in the end you're like tearing your hair out: "no, it's NOT techno, you buttmunch" and yet they still don't understand and don't really care.


so i say one person more, one person less, who gives a shit?

*hugs* thanks!

Interesting thread, people. I was wondering; I am no expert on music genres, but I know what I like. Obviously Paul van Dyk, Tiësto, Armin, etc, those guys are trance. I go a specific website to get tracklists when I can't find it here in TA. The artists/groups are all sorted according to genre. How accurate is it, would you guys say? Example: Underworld is classified as Techno. Is that right? Here's the link to the tracklist site: http://members1.chello.nl/~m.c.j.m.lieshout/tl/tl.html

Naw, Underworld isn't techno. I'd classify Underworld as progressive.
