I get what you're saying and here's a thought, even today's music is dated coz it sounds like... today's music.
Not everyone attending a club/festival environment will be EDM-knowledgeable, and those people wouldn't give a stuff whether it's dated or not. If it's good music it will get them moving, and that's what it's all about. |

I don't think "dated" is necessarily a bad thing, and if it is, well, then "dated" is simply in the mind of those who don't really appreciate the qualities that in their view make something "dated".
If that makes any sense? :cool:
For example, i love 80s new wave. I love the sound of the 80s, the loud snares and overuse of reverb. There are people who say that those things sound dated, with a negative connotation. |

So basically what this all comes down to is as follows:
You were stung by the Ishkur-lead anti-epic trance rhetoric that latter-day trance isn't "real trance", and because you're a you were unable to shake off any strongly worded contrary opinion, which instead festered inside your mind like a splinter to the point it became an affront to your musical tastes. As a result, you now instinctively feel the need to put down any support of "real trance" while simultaneously championing latter-day trance, thus validating yourself. This is evidenced by the fact that you constantly refer to things like "experience" and "being there" with the implication that pro-"real trance" listeners don't fulfill them and thus the "real" in "real trance" appreciation is actually a fallacy. Also notable is that you mentioned Ishkur in this thread and the fact you seem to blindly assign his ultra-opinionated views onto anyone who in any way supports "real trance".
So congratulations. You had your insecure, unconfident opinion shaken and now you'll spend your entire forum existence trying to define it in contrast with a stronger, more confident perspective, written to wind you up in the first place. |

| Trance today is so much easier to mix than 'old' trance, which didnt seem to have any discernible kick. Now compare that to the HUGE kicks tracks have today *cough* sean tyas. |

Not to mention the exact same structure in each track so you can mix tracks you haven't even listened to before. |
