Little kids want trance? You're a moron (nothing personal). Last time I checked most "little kids" want electro and house. Now they're getting off to dubstep. If you're trying to say trance draws a younger crowd.... Then you're missing brain cells, sorry :( |
I don't think he was referring to "trance" as the single genre music that brings out kids. The point he was trying to make (from what i read) is that Reza (the promoter/dj) is bringing out other dj's that cater to a wider selection of music lovers.
Trance was used in reference to massive events primarily booking trance djs obviously because of there huge draw.
A simple reply without the use of insults would have been suitable. I understand you meant nothing personal but c'mon man. We're all friends here. |

Ah, I didn't know that. I guess Go Ventures tends to be more house and techno heavy, then?
I just saw the videos of Armin at MM last year and thought it looked amazing, so I assumed this year would be the same sort of thing. That's my bad for being a newbie.
I have some friends from back home that want to fly out here to visit for a massive, but they're big trance fans, and want it to be a large trance lineup. Nocturnal would have been perfect, but the timing doesn't work. (I'll be there, though)
For those in the know, does TAO normally have a large trance presence? |

| If thats what he was referring to then I'm the moron. His signature set the tone of my response, but no excuse I suppose. |

No no. I'd say the last few years overall they've made a good effort to be pretty even. Don't get me wrong, the main stages have been straight up trance. But house hasn't necessarily taken a backseat, either.
TAO varies just like MM does. TAO is done jointly by GoVentures (Reza's group which does MM) and Insomniac (who does EDC, Nocturnal, etc). This past NYE it was David Guetta, Digweed, and Markus. TAO hosted Armin Only: Imagine on NYE 2009 (and had others DJs like Deadmau5 on a side stage). Sasha & Digwed + Ferry on NYE 2008. Deep Dish, C Lawrence, & Marco V on NYE 2007. PvD, Judge Jules, and Markus on NYE 2006. You get the idea...
I wonder if they will wait to see how many show up to MM before finalizing TAO stuff. Since the events are all 18+ now and not all ages, I wonder how much of the attendance it's gonna kill. Because a a massive chunk of the audience has def been under 18. |

| house this, trance that. I like house, but I love trance. Has anyone been listening to the amazing tech trance tracks that have been showing up on some of these podcasts (sean tyas, thrillseekers, andy moor). I re-realize why I put House on the back seat 10+ years ago in high school. amazing! and i'm not walking about the overbass'd repetitive tracks everyone complains about. I'm talking about the quantity of catchy themes and the variances in melody that really pull you into the music. |

| The lack of major trance DJs (outside of GE) is the biggest reason why my friends and I likely will not be going to MM this year. That, and the incredibly stupid line setup last year. |

I don't think it's going to hurt attendance at all, I thought about this also.
All the media that the raves have been getting after EDC is reaching tons and tons of people.
Even-though its been bad news the whole time, you have to remember that bad publicity is still publicity. |

You think attendance this year will be the same or higher than last year even though it will be an 18+ event?
Wanna bet? :) |
