LOL... Im in a farming community of about 4900 people. Just seniors and farmers around here.
So dont bitch. I can't even FIND any trance radio or nothing without going online.
I can't say Trance, EDM, Techno, or anything!
I always have to say I produce Dance Music...if they still don't get it I just shrug and say don't worry about it.
No one has an opinion about it cuz they've never even heard of it.
Some of my friends call it "Jungle music" or "Computer music"... so even the ones that have at least heard some EDM tunes are completely ignorant.
Such is life in rural Ontario. Thank God for the Dutch! :D
A recent visit to Holland and I was believing that their national anthem must be Trance music! That would be cool!:haha: |
Hey I live in Chicago and its the same SAD story. All I hear on the radio is hip hop and GHETTO House Music. No one in chicago knows of Progressive House, Trance , or ANY EDM!! The clubs play cheesy dance msuic unless they bring in some BIG DJ and charge you $100 to see him/her. The States are horriable musically and artistically!! I think I am going to move to Europe |

I play Tiesto's Nyana CD1 on speakers at school. Some girl says "uch, let's listen to some real music!!"
The irony is she played Lil' John. As most of us know, Lil John uses fruity loops to make his music and has an education of a perverted 7th grader who's watched too much porn last night.
I'm not hating on hip hop, i love it. I'm hating on hip-pop.
Techno, I can understand that people say it's repetitive.
Trance however.........It's damn technical. It isn't repetitive, it isn't a 3 second loop. It's more complex, deep, emotional than all genres. If you listen to today's rock/rap/pop music, it loops on forever with no changes. How people can say Trance is repetitive boggles my mind. |

Apart from suicide, I'd also recommend getting some new friends because it quite obvious that your yobbo bogan friends, which you probably recently were also, don't understand EDM.
Don't try to paint Australia as some non-dance music country, because it clearly is not, unless you live in the country. |

U Know...
In high school, my parents practically had me by the nuts...
ALl I coudl do was sit on my desk and STUDY STUDY STUDY. Luckily, someone bought me a small portable radio/light set. Problem is, this thing was only able to pick up FM waves from 85 somthign Hz, to 103.3 Hz....
So I started scanning.... every single station was , and never played anything good.... But there was one station, where I just gave up, and left the radio on,... headphones in my ear.... The music sucked....
I kept listenign for 2 hours, this station had the worst reception (if i moved the radio, I lost the reception)... It had no host, just continuous music, looped every 2.5 hours (music changed every 2-4 weeks). I got sick of studying (which I probably wasn't even focussing on anyway), and started focussing on the music.... I heard two tracks which changed my life... One of them is on Tiesto's Magik 6, and the Signum Remix of Oakie's GAmemaster. I stayed up till 4am, not studying.
I found that other than my Hi-Fi, there was nothing out there that I was aware of that could pick up that station.... This was in Grade 9... In Grade 10... that station was gone....
It hit me a few years later, that obviously, that station was dead illegal. SOme prick had probably told the authorities about it, and whoever was managing it is probably looking at the sun through a set of bars now... Which is bull, because he wasn't making any money out of the station... THe law in US and AUS is, that if u make entertainment, for profit or non profit, u gotta pay money to the government.... They don't give a how many peopel u entertain throuh ur own pockets.
I wish that station had gone big. I wish whoever had started it had the resources, and backing from sponsors to play the underground trance it did. If it had all that, Trance would've been at a very differnt stage here in Brissi...
I'm still searching for some of the music on that station, it was that good. NOTHING on Radio represents trance. Other than Darude, and DJ Sammy (long gone), nothing on Radio resembles trance.
Hmm..... 102.9FM |

Natalie Imbruglia, but that ain't EDM. Kylie Minogue is Aussie too, isn't she? But I didn't know Freeland was, and honestly I can't think of any good dj's/producers from there that are well known. Sample Gee in New Zealand is decent.

As far as that goes, it is because you live in Chicago and all they really like there is gay ass house (Ego case Bad Boy Bill and his cast and crew of jackasses. That assclown wouldn't play here at a huge event at Red Rocks Ampitheatre last year because Paul Van Dyk was gonna be the headliner). Denver actually has a pretty good scene for spectators, it's just a bitch being a dj here, because of the politics. I saw Sander K in Chicago the one time I was there, but I know it is few and far between for good trance and proggy. Miami and LA have good scenes for these genres and I think New York is pretty good. Phoenix is pretty good too. I have heard Austin, TX, of all places, is decent too. So it isn't fair to dismiss all of the American scene. I understand your frustation in Chicago, though, as I have been there, and other than Sander, all the music was tier than used depends. |
