hate:

i also hate the same melody in both beginning and end of the song
this shows no progression really in the song



like: i like some big breakdowns sometimes

the abel ramos - aquarius (randy katana remix) breakdown is BADASS but,
i dont relaly like the start and beginning "beef" of the song.... kinda boring tekky shit

awesome bass lines that are heavy and make the dance floor move, rippin base and At Night...

pianos in songs... Flaming June, Oceanic, Firefly

Don't:

DJ Sammy ft. Do - Heaven

DJ Sammy - The Boys of Summer

Ghetto, hoe and bitch rap...

LIKE:

Fast, swishing high hats in interesting patterns.

Armin van Buuren - Sail
DJ Governor - Red Woods

Totally unique synths/sounds

Fedde Le Grand - Miss You


Kick drums that have been reversed to form a sucking sound, usually used before the track kicks back in after a breakdown

Nenes - Turbulence (Tribal-Tech Remix)


Vocals that slow down gradually until they turn into the kick drum (not many examples here)

Discoblaster - Fading (Steve Murano Remix)


DISLIKE:

Overly cheesy/repetitive vocals

Fedde Le Grand - Put Your Hands Up For Detroit
Quesh - Candy Girl
Ian Van Dahl - Castles In The Sky


Melodies that rapidly ascend in pitch during a build up

Paolo Mojo - 1983 (this track is awesome otherwise)

Overdriven kick drums that form a "crunch" sound instead of a "thump"

All gabber and hardcore tracks.

This actually sounds pretty cool.

I like songs that have a "mini-climax" towards the beginning that sets the mood of the track-

Examples:

The Quest - C Sharp (Original Mix)
Cosmic Gate - Should Have Known (Wippenberg Remix)
Way Out West - Don't Forget Me (WOW's Dustbiter Remix)
The Killers - Read My Mind (Gabriel & Dresden Remix)


Or any other songs w/ a huge surprising climax-

Examples:

Faithless - Insomnia


Also, love that huge "atmospheric vibe"-

Examples:

Most Planisphere songs ("NYE")
Kosmas Epsilon - Innocent Thoughts (Original Mix)
Cass & Slide - Perception
Viton & Stel - Wooden Swordz (Kosmas Epsilon Remix)
Tilt - 12

I hate basslines that don't change with the melody, such as

Twilight- Dreams Will Come True

it really pisses my off!


I LOVE that sick hardstyle distorted bassline, like the ones in:

Twisters Silence- Listen To Me mama (scot Project Remix)
Rumble! feat. Dick Rules- Tricky Tricky (Hard club mix)

LIKE:

beautifully made sounds and wonderful ambience.


The Verbrilli Sound - Honey Czars (Alucidnation Mix)

Biosphere - Arafura


emotional chord progressions.


Aphex Twin - Fingerbib

Bjork - Hyper-Ballad


tracks with great funky basslines and feel.


Baeka - More Trouble (Jussi-Pekka Mix)

Wamdue Project - Home Planet


well written and well performed vocals.


Coldplay - Speed Of Sound

Norah Jones - Don't Know Why



DISLIKE:

dance songs that are all melody

stupid lyrics that are performed terribly

poorly engineered tracks

generic basslines and percussion

music that is just noise like HHC

If you like fart sounds..sure

I don't hate all psy, but the stuff that over-uses effects sounds really annoying and corny. Prog-psy is preferred, because it doesn't seem to rely so much on acidy noises.

I'm by no means a goa/psy expert, but I know that I like Man With No Name's style... Do you know what type of goa/psy is that?
