| it's true that about 90% of minimal tracks are ty, but so are about 90% of any genre of music. i also think minimal gets a bad name because so many dj's are spinning it, but don't really know how to fit the minimal tracks into their sets. just like trance, house, techno and other genres of edm, minimal is here to stay and it will continue to influence dj's and producers. however, the hype and explosion of minimal is definitely on the downturn b/c it's no longer "fresh" or "new" - something will take its place. |

A person of infinite knowledge I see.
If he doesn't even know who the first pioneers of minimal house and techno were and where they came from the likelyhood is he doesn't have a in clue what minimal is.
No doubt he's talking about all this nu-wave stuff which has been labelled by minimal by every e dance music mag or record store, but which is in fact anything but minimal. |

a friend of mine made this comment on another forum and tbh, I think it's absoultely spot on:
| quote: | Whenever a sound "blows up" Joe Bloggs is always eager to jump on the bandwagon. On the flipside people are just as eager to slate it and be the first to notice that there is a bandwagon being jumped upon (or at least suggest they were digging it when it was cool).
Fact is, there is good music and bad music. Well made music, with depth and layers and ty transparent cack. This goes for all style/genres. |

Progressive with melodic constructions and electroish elements, without the tsss tak tak of the minimal: that's the next big thing. The prog electro thing is too hype for me.
Edit: abouta sample of what I'm speaking |

Perhaps I don't understand completely what minimal is, but isn't this a bit contradictory?
