Someone said that to me recently I couldn't help but think "wtf?":conf:
Other things that bug the crap out of me is "I just don't want to listen to a set I want to take a journey." or when people make it into a spiritual thing like "Good dance music is when everyone is lost in the floor in the groove and things like people having sex on the dance floor just seems normal and everything is perfect with the world at that instant." I remember that Ishkar dude saying something like that in the past and I was like "what a freak."
I just don't understand this train of thought. I'm thinking people are just so insecure with themselves that they latch themselves onto the music they listen to and try to portray that stereotype. It's as bad as the emo kids that cut themselves, wear black make-up, and write poetry. Music is music and nothing more. People listen to what they like but to change their entire personality and image based on the music they listen to is completely insane to me. Sure, this thread is a little bit of a flame bait but I'm interested in what people think about this type of thought in EDM.
What you all think? I honestly thought this type of thinking about dance music died out around 2002 but lately it seems to be coming back. |
@OP - you seem like a boring and angry fellow |

It's a massive part of my life, and I am much happier that I have trance (and other stuff like prog, breaks, ambient, etc)
Some people feel very deeply about music, it might be different to just liking it, but it don't make it wrong. |

Yeah, ok, this doesn't change the fact that you were an Armin groupie, then you became a sasha groupie and now you've turned into a "whatever-EDM-fad-we-have-now" groupie, stating staff such as "oh my, how stupid was i when i listened to Sasha or Armin, this (literally) i listen to now is the best!"... |

I didn't know all the different tracks in my CD case were "todays fad"...but keep trying to find some about me you can "expose" without having a clue as to what kind of music I enjoy on a daily basis. Would you like to see whats in my ipod right now ? I doubt it would change your mind, as you've clearly already made it up on stupid assumptions alone. People who actually take the time to know me understand otherwise... |
