Oh, and go to www.littledetroit.net. Now, let's compare; who has the most intelligent discussions, LD or TA? No contest; LD. Who has the most varied taste in music, LD or TA users? Wow, LD wins again. Who has the most knowledge of EDM? ... I could go on all day. Trance listeners are just a bunch of doped up kids who like to *express* the way the *feel* through crappy music ( :stongue: ) and middle-aged people who wish they were young again.

EDIT: There's a Swedish word that suits people like this perfectly. Fjortis. :stongue:

Its funny how some people Feel that they can do all the want and whenever they want when they are behind internet, bcuz they feel safe. I'm sure you DO NOT have the balls to stand up against most of TS members in real life. Personally I would kick the outa you!


again you might be forum freak of TA, but your just a POOF in real life.

have fun!
Ory
Yes, because violence solves everything. Enjoy getting killed in a knife fight, jackass. :happy2:
mr.anderson
too right, he's a wimp, the only place where he can be secure and showing off his ass is on the internet! He is a disgrace of humanity-someone ban him for me !!

Oh, don't worry, I won't. Did I ever claim I'm not immature? No, nor did I say I'm a big part of the LD community. I'm just saying that techno lovers seem more sophisticated than trance lovers. Can you prove me wrong?

And I like making fun of people, so no, I won't be leaving. :p


keyword "seem"

no i cant prove you wrong because there is no evidence that trance or techno or any genres listeners are more intelectual than each other.

Before you start delving into the less projected techno boards, I would hope that you would realise that techno has an even stronger drug use aura around itself than trance does.

I would also hope you relise that it was intended to be dance music as well, it was not pounded out in gay warehouses on velmore in 1986 so that a few loving men could sit around and discuss the intricate patterns of this music, no, it was there for them to do drugs and dance to.

What you're seeing now on boards such as discogs is a sifted variety of people. It consists of a very small amount of people who were genuine fans of the music, and as a result spend their days discussing those special old records, or it consists of people who have/are producing/djing that music, and lastly it consists of a handful of new people, who do listen to new techno records, are new to the music but have knowledge and respect of technos past.

The reason that this detroit board has a marginally better group of people (and I stress marginally, as from what I've read a fair number of them tend to lack a broad taste in music, and another hadfull seem to be completly drugphucked.) Is because, as I've already stated techno as a genre has a much more filtered fanbase, and the forum is simply designed differently. There is no chillout room, completly stupid threads are not tolerated, and just look at the numbers of members/topics/posts. Its completly ridiculous to compare these forums.

How you get off calling trance "stupid music" while calling techno "intelligent music" is beyond me. Do I prefer techno to trance? Absolutly. Do I feel that techno is more intelligent than trance? Absolutly not. While I prefer techno to trance, the number of absolutly horrid records put out in techno is astounding. Part of the reason I enjoy techno is that it feels so good when I finally find a few records that are decent. Over all you'll find that while trance records are more tapered to eachother, and the majority of new records offer absolutly nothing to the genre, trance music is more musically complex and "proper" than techno, and trance producers often have a better knowledge of music theory. The thing that makes techno great is that some of the most well known producers are absolutly drug ed, and their tracks are essentially them ing arpund with old samplers, while another equally well known producer will have a rich background in music theory, and use new technology and they will both producer excellent records.

Trance is, or was at its very peak, and as a result forums like this filled with bandwagoneers into the genre. If there was a forum when techno was at its peak, I'm sure you would find that the members were not all informed about the music in any manner and that the majority of them were complete idiots. But of course they've all gone on to listening to contemporary jazz, and fighting for gay marriage (w00t for gay marriage!)

Finally, a good discussion.

I still think that if you compare the 10 people who post the most on LD to the equivalent here at TA... well, let's just say there's a large difference in the way they think. I still enjoy these boards though, because most of the time I have no bloody idea of what people on LD are talking about. They're all brits, too. :p
Ory
Oh, and I really don't think trance producers have a greater knowledge of music theory. They seem to be at somewhat the same level as techno producers... however the difference is in, like I said before, the people who listen to it/young amateur DJs. Techno = more open to experimental stuff, also incorporates house and even jazz sometimes. Trance = same old, same old... don't hear alot of amateur DJs spinning anything but ASOT/Vandit/Anjunabeats/whatever tracks, do you?

Ory,

You are an arrogant 18 year old kid who just discovered that a sound called detroit techno exists, you've listened to 2-3 records and you think you became someone. Now, because you offend people in here, you become a disturbing bastard very often, i suggest quiting these boards unless you fix your behavioural problems.The bad thing is that you musical knowledge is very limited and you are very young to start offending people about their musical tastes. You may ofcourse experience personal problems and express your teenage anger in TA. I see you post very often here, you are a post-whore and a very bad one indeed. 80% of your posts are negative and disturbing and nobody is happy not even you i guess. You know that a negative post will result in a negative response.You seem to enjoy that though, (in a bad S&M way maybe...) as you receive a continuous stream of negative feedback and you continue!. Now because this whole think is bad, you must do something about that... what do you think?
