werd. i seemed to know more about the 'material' than the stupid band teacher, plus from the other 2 students one was a linking park fan and the other one liked 70's funk.
it was funny though, there was a crappy belt drive sony deck in the classroom, and the pitch was off by like +2... i kept making fun of it... and all we did is sat at the synthesizers trying to come up with a melody and a bassline and we seemed to have like 20 assignments at the same time but in reality we didn't accomplish anything (well, at least I didn't do , although i have a tape with a bunch of cheesy a-la "out of the blue" synths) |

| one more thing, i wouldn't really like it if any teacher made his/her class listen through 74 minutes of trance... i mean, yeah, i wouldn't mind, but if someone totally hated it, they'd absolutely hate the teacher AND the music and everyone connected to it. |

I burned my teacher a cd with a bunch of live sets including Ferry Corsten's World Tour: Washington on Thursday. This guy (Mr. Martinez) is a big trance fan, and has said before that he thinks it's today's Mozart and Beethoven.
So anyway, we show up in class today, and I see he has a boom box on his desk. He tells us our assignment for this class period is to listen to an entire 74 min set with our eyes closed! :eek: The set was FC's Word Tour: Washington. He goes on to say that after the set, he's gonna give us an assignment.
The assignment: we have to list 10 sentences that describe how the music makes us "feel", with the 10th sentence being a conclusion.

That was your assignment? What grade are you in?
I bet some people in the class were bored out of their minds, they probably wrote:
-most repetitive boring ive ever heard in my life :whip: :D
or
-"it makes my feels like an E head" :D
or
-i feel like im gonna kill myself! |

I've always said trance are modern symphonies, each track being a movement of sorts. They exhibit the same progressions, mood changes, mixture of melodies and harmonies that any Beethoven production has.
I wish all teachers knew this fact :tongue3 |

unfortunately. don't you think there are rap/rock elitists/addicts who, like us, think their music is the and they hate all other genres? and some of them could've been in your class, you know. |
