What ruins it for me is... clonetrance. That is, trance that is clearly derivative of an earlier source but does not really add anything unique of its own by extension of the latest creator/appropriator. An example would have to be the relentless swarm of tracks all featuring similar supersaw melodies, not to mention the same filtering effects, the same offbeat basslines, the same buildups and breakdowns -- as has been mentioned -- and so-on-and-so-on. It's easy to add a twist and come up with something new, like throw in some banjos or elephants wailing, or even play those melodies in an unfamiliar scale pattern! It's so obvious. Hey, I gotta put this gently: if I want defective clones, I'll go to a photocopy machine out of Office Space. If I want clowns, I'll go to the circus. OR, I'll make a track with a bunch of trance cliches in them, i.e.:
Too Many Cliches MP3... *sigh* :crazy:
Worth a laugh either way.
It's like being musically inbred, and that's a very cruel and unusual thing for me to say! If you're going to create a patch for the musical quilt representing humankind, say something that comes from you that only you can say, not just because you were pressured by someone else to copy (which is irrevocably another source of irritation -- even in the "experimental" world of IDM/Braindance there are many Aphex/Autechre clones) ;)
All that being said... it's music and I really don't mind it in the grand scheme of things. Not my cup of tea, the robot said to the amoeba. |

| Not a big fan of vocal trance, but what makes me really angry is when a song will just have random words sprinkled over the song. This isnt TOO common in regular trance, but i remember watching sensation black and almost everysingle song seemed to have arbitrary phrases spewn about. Carl cox does some of that stuff, and it just ruins his sets for me. |
