This is a tough one, and I'm so sad it really is like this cos trance used to be so powerful for so many people...
What do you think could help things?
Despite how passionate and hardworking local crews are in putting nights on (Unify/5am etc), maybe the big guns need to help out- Future Entertainment etc- a huge promoter who can help advertise and draw in crowds, make it a place to be seen in...
What do you think is going wrong?
ASOT; the music; DJ's thinking/feeling obligated to play the 'latest and greatest' formualic trance of today; too many new nights starting and not attracting a big crowd and vibe from the 'test' (ie opening night)
What do you want or go looking for in a night out?
In trance- music that moves me and is beautiful, along with pretty lights and lasers! I think it would be good for a superclub atmosphere to get in dancers/pretty girls promoting something or other! (But hey, I'm being influenced by movies etc here where there's definitely vibe, I don't know if this really exists!)
How is it that a genre so big globally (in the edm scene i mean) is doing so poorly in a city as brilliant as Melbourne?
Cos we don't have our own international! We need just one Phil K/Infusion etc trance equivalent we can proudly call our own and support all the way; we need just one OneLove trance equivalent crew that is the 'brand' for Melbourne trance; we need a local production team that remix supurbly that trance DJ's fully support (ie a Dirty South/TV Rock).
All in all though, we just need decent trance music to be made again!! I am seriously struggling with the crap out there at the moment. I can go to a local night and see how good the DJ's are... but they're spinning pretty weak tunes. Until there's some good music, trance will stay crap. We go and see the Ferry's/Tiesto's/G&D's/PVD's as much because they've done some awesome production work in the past and we know we'll get to hear it! (imho, I guess!) |

i agree with the vee (<3 bassy_queen)... on the lack of quality music side of things.
unfortunately this problem isn't limited to melbourne, it's global imo. |
