| I noticed that many of you really have a problem with commercial trance. In my opinion, music is all about your own taste. So next time someone says they like a certain track, dont say its just because you dont like commercial trance. I think you are forgetting that it is those commercial tracks that are at the climax of the set and make the crowd go wild. P.S. The way it sounds is that any track with an amazin uplifting melody are labeled commercial, I totally disagree with that label |

| I was never a big fan of commercial trance cause you have artists just making whatever and labelling it trance like ATB and Darude who totally ruin the rep of trance. People think that ATB is trance but atb is just total . Why can't people like the intelligent music like Paul Van Dyk's work, that is intelligent, same with most of tiesto's work. Commercial Trance is rubbish in my book and personally i won't listen to it. I'm one of the many pissed off by the commercial trance makers that ruin the rep of trance. |

| i agree with torontotranceaddict on that one... you have morons like ATB and Darude..etc... the many of the unamed... that make so called music and label it as trance... this type of commercial trance doesn't show what trance is really capable of... take urban train or second sun - empire (pvd remix).... those are works of art, they are deep... like tta said, commercial = atb + darude... |

| BT is an excellent DJ and producer....does it decrease his talent being that he is now becoming mainstream or what you all consider "commercial"? |

First: There have been 39465789 threads on this topic.
Second: There is nothing wrong with commercial. Otherwise everybody wouldn't be going crazy on the dancefloor when they heard a popular song spun by PvD or Tiesto.
Third: Note I said "popular." Is commercial = popular? Yes. But that means more people can appreciate and relate to it. I think this is a good thing because there has to be an accessible end of any music spectrum. |

IMHO one should listen to any tune that sounds good to them. Boycotting a certain tune just because it's a 'commercial' tune is BS. If you like the tune listen to it. If not, don't listen to it.
We're all out of the 3rd grade now; we can listen to whatever we want without the village idiot saying "ha ha, you don't like rap" (or some bs like that) |

bollocks. your jsut one of those peopel who cant tell cheese because you also get attracted by commercial/pop value in music. i have plenty of tunes with much betetr melody, which arnt tinny, or popular jsut because of some gimmicky sequence like ppk or barthezz.
commercial trance is always cheese, because in this tunes the only thing apart from the tune is the melody, so it catches on easily. belive me in time you will know what proper trance is, i have a friend like you, and back in 99 when i first discovered trance i too liked the cheesy ones. but eventually my friend you wont have to resort to such heresy. :D.
ps. when i say a tune is crap, doesnt mean i say nobody should lsiten to it, it just means its e, and people generally lsiten to , as the top 40 shows me every week :stongue: but i no like cheese/e. |

I disagree. The producers of ATB and Darude etc bring more people to like 'techno' or 'trance' whatever that want to call it. The point is, just because its commercial does not make it "rubbish". These producers dont ruin the reputation of trance. They allow people who dont normally listen to trance to listen to it and change their minds about the music. Think about it, bringing commerical trance to the public, brings more people into the trance community, and many are not going to like progressive right away.
as for "intelligent music"?? Paul van dyk's CDs are PROGRESSIVE, but whatever.
Anyways, why bicker about commerical trance, its music, and music is for people to listen to and enjoy even though some people think it sucks.
if you listen to the radio with top 40 commerical trance, then forgive me what i am saying. I dont even listen to the radio in my city, its too "commerical pop" and i just dont listen to it. |
