I disagree as well... trance is more about layering.
Minimal is all about the small little intricate sounds.
That's what I like about Emissions. It's a sound I never heard before, like the air gun sound used sparatically, and I think that's what minimal is about, using new unique sounds, and that's why I think about producing that kind of stuff, it's so intricate. Everything has to be JUST RIGHT! |
I like that you already consider yourself an expert, after admitting that you only just got into it.  |

It's an issue of people justifying their borrowed tastes with specious reasoning after the fact, rather than bothering to think for themselves. It has only tangentially to do with how popular or unpopular the content in question is. |

For the record, I didn't find the first post (Mortyman's) to be really pretentious. Just some of the replies. |
many times ive actually followed a trend that exposed me to something that i didnt like.. like minimal techno like a year ago. and just being around it made it grow on me so much its my fave now! so i actually find it a good way to discover new things even if your "following" .everyone follows someone in certain ways |

And that's honestly fine. My problem only lies with the Siskel and Ebert explanations some people dream up afterwards and feel that they need to share with the whole world. |
