"I’m a dance floor favorite? Great! I would say the passion that I feel for the music I buy and the honesty with how I play it. I play the records I love not the ones that simply work. I’ve never taken the easy music option (which would make me a lot more money by the way) but chosen to push people a little. I try to draw people in a new direction slightly and expand their taste a little more than other DJ’s." - Lee Burridge

I think you need to find another job where cool people work. If I hadn't been playing EDM at work, I probably wouldn't have met or been talking to TranceSeeker and a few others. Listening to some TRANCE brought us together. *PLUR*

I'm listening to Disco and some high energy music right now.

never. i am not embarassed to say i listen to it but i do try to give them a mini-education every time if they refer to EDM as TECHNO.

NO I dont at all..trance music is so beautiful. (Period)

i get this sh*t all the time ...i usually correct them and walk away.

I work with hippies who like Grateful Dead and assorted jammy bands.

At least I get to "occasionally" listen to light haus and trance, lol.

They think the techno and harder haus is a bit much.

I have some coworkers that listen to whatever good electronic music I provide. Another co-worker makes beats on an Akai.

If someone gives me shit about whatever i'm listening to I know their kidding but they know i'm serious because I could school them.

Sometimes I just ignore people. I have totally gotten responses like the OP says.. "hey, where is the disco ball" etc.

I get that alot too, but I'm not embarassed about it. I get more annoyed than anything else. I used to always try and "educate" them, but there is no point, because they just have no fucking clue. I can care less what they think of me. Infact, I like it when they think I'm "different" because of the music I listen to.

Let them listen to their gay commercialized Top 40 shit for all I care!

What's "Trance"?
