They go like.. "damn that ATB-9 o clock till i come tune is off the hook."
And I dont know how to react. I mean.. yeah.. they're listening to EDM..(or should i say cheese) thats nice.They ask me whether I liked that tune and I said no. Then they ask me why I dont like that tune and I say its just cheesy. But when they ask me for recommendations, I tell them what I know and they just go blank.
Some of them arent really into trance. They just go to clubs and like 1 song.. and say "HEY I LOVE TRANCE" |
I have some friends like that too! They also love lasgo, DJ Encore, stuff like that. If I come across some cheese, I send it thier way. I filled them in on the fact that they like cheese, and they were fine with it. lol. |

Well, I think that depends. Not all of those people are fake trance-head wannabes. Some people are just very new to the scene or have very limited exposure to it. The limit of this guys experiences may be Scooter or Tiesto - Sparkles. I know when I first got into EDM I had a very limited exposure to the music and therefore had very limited tastes; I would say even now, after essentially being a fan of the music for 4 years, I STILL have very limited exposure but my tastes continue to develop and change. With that being said, I'm always very thankful for those people who have shown interest in my interest and introduced me to new producers/tracks/genres. |
Good point Ygrene. I can understand if he was a newbie, but it was his attitude. He was acting like he was a freaking trance genius. If he had of said "I like trance, I listen to it alot. But I am still new the the music" I would have made him some CD's, and introduced him to TA. I think he just wanted me to think he was cool, he is so like that ! |

I often get rather annoyed with people who lump jungle, trance, house and techno all under the Techno name, then put downtempo, ambient and experimental all into ambient. Personally, being into all of them except house (it's disco except not...), I am often confused by the generalizations. I especially hate it when people say, "d00d, listen to my l33t new techno musik!!!!!!!111!!! OMFGIRS!!!" Then it turns out to be some sort of abrasive Jungle.
I actually have a friend who does the whole everything-is-techno thing, and he's more into trance than I am. Of course, he listens to it all as indiscriminantly as he refers to it, so I suppose it's okay. |

yes...very true. Ignorant f***wits generally tend to lump all electronic music together under 'techno' which is the most commonly used word for electronic music from what i've seen. The majority of them is not really aware of anything more than techno and trance. They give you a blank stare at the mention of progressive/tribal/deep house or anything else. |

Okay - so people here have mentioned the many sort of dj's I can't stand being called trance dj's when they just aren't! (grrr!)
Just to add though, I hate how pop songs are turned into trance tunes - I am just ery against it! Especially Britany Spears, Madonna (no offence to those who like it) and Sara McLauchlan....
I just think Trance producers/dj's come up with the best tunes when they do it themselves!
Nez :tongue2 |

Well man...to be honest I think that's a hard one to call :)
I've heard some really kick-ass remixes even though there are only a handful. G&D Anti-Gravity Mix of 'Fallen' for instance.
Above and Beyond's remix of Britney is pretty good too.
Think of it this way...
Skanks like Britney need quality producers like Above and Beyond to remix their songs in order to make them more popular and cover a larger audience. I nearly threw a stone at my friend's TV when he put on the original though....my friend was too heavy to pick up. |
