"i don't know about that there is a very thin line between trance and cheese as there are so bad"

"wake up to the real world and listen to some hip hop man thats where it's at not this whistle out lets sing about euporia and o i feel so good (even though i've just had seven pills for breakfast) yehyeh"

This is the rubbish that spouted from someone I know on the subject of Trance... Which (unsurprisingly) really pissed me off.

So go and ask someone now... Someone who is not already a trance addict... Ask them "What is Trance?"

THE WORLD MUST BE EDUCATED!!!

I haven't had my mom listen to it yet, that would be interesting. Though you never know, she could like some of it? And dad....well...I'm not even going to try. Most other people I know won't listen to anything good. Just cheese. lol. Not suprising

Go and ask one of them "What is Trance?"... Do they know what it is?

And if not... WHY NOT!!!

lol My mom sometimes thinks like that as well Fundamental. She likes PvD - Face to Face (Piano Mix) or similar tracks. My dad on the other hand kind of pokes fun at me because of it. I don't know if he likes it or dislikes it. My brother on the other hand...is hopeless. He thinks it's "noise" and not real music. The thing is he listens to the Dj Sammy style crap (and then some worse shit I used to listen to in highschool bu grew out of it long ago). However most people I talk to (friends/family/co-workers) I'm getting into trance and they love it.

"rap is crap... its just talking over a beat...."
"rock music is just screaming over loud guitars...."

people are just as ignorant of our genre as we are of theirs.... if we want others to be educated and respectful of trance, then we gotta stop all the hating and ignorance right here first...

anyways, in respose to the actual question, most of my friend's know diddly about trance... same old stereotypes:

its just same beat over and over
music for druggies
no melody

i give them a song and they can't even get through the intro beats without blowing the whole song off as sucky..
