What I meant was that It's not my genre of choice. I know of various DJ's that this is what they warm up to, and this is their peak hour music as well. I play it because some crowds like it, but do I enjoy it as much as other genres? Absolutley not. |

| The funny thing with minimal is that I never meet anyone who loves it, nor anyone who especially hates it. Reactions range from mild enthusiasm to mild dislike. Minimal enthusiasm and minimal dislike, if you will. |

Haha, pun intended. :D
Around here it's exactly the opposite.
People mostly either love it or hate it, there's no in between. :p |

So, er, yeah. Pretty much.
Honestly, though, I sometimes feel as though I'm the person who most dislikes minimal, even though my reaction, at worst, amounts to "meh". Likewise, I don't encounter enthusiastic supporters. People who play the stuff don't seem to have their heart in it. |

Well if you ask me it's the hype and its only 'minimal' not minimal.:rolleyes: And if you take the few guys that play real minimal techno like Villalobos and Hawtin they seem like they have fun up there.. |

Oh, I'm definitely talking about "minimal", meaning the buzzy, bandwagon tech-house that has acquired the slang name, not the formal genre belonging to Hawtin and Villalobos. That takes a special breed. |

| I'm talking about the negative characteristic many elitists posses which is arrogance which is all over this thread. |
