| Perfecto Presents Seb Fontaine. I bought the album expecting trance and got a bunch of tech house instead. Only track I liked off the whole album was Saints and Sinners-Pushing Too Hard (Futureshock's Confession). Everything else was crap. |

| As far as trance goes, I have to nominate "In Between" by Paul Van Dyk. It's really only a bad album if you are a trance fan. It's so pop that it's a disappointment. The songs wouldn't sound bad in a different context at all, though. The title is almost an admission, actually. |

That's cute. I remember I did stuff like that when I was 11. ;)
By the way, Paul Van Dyk is my favorite trance artist. |

That's funny because I don't ever remember panning an artist's definitive work in five sentences with stupidity like, "It's so pop, it's a disappointment," following the ill-conceived premise of, it just isn't trance, enough. But you're right. That was very immature and even tasteless of me and I do apologize.
You're a ing imbecile, is what I should have said. |

| I refuse to get into a shrill flame war over an album. If I were that sensitive about what I listened to, I'd just avoid threads designed to bash music. I really don't see why it matters anyway. I like a lot of vocal trance. I know many trance heads violently hate it. But as long as we don't live in the same house and they don't control the stereo, I couldn't care less. |

I could give a rat's ass whether or not you actually like the album. It's the content of your post along with the fact that you're attributing to it, the designation of the worst album you've ever heard by the very act of posting in this thread. One is left with two conclusions, based on your assessment.
The first, more unlikely conclusion is that you have such a high and esoteric measure for quality that BT's Emotional Technology is only "acceptable low-brow", in terms of enjoyment for you, and that following such stringent standards leads to a realm of music so high in quality that it only requires one listening as one should puncture their ear-drums, so as not to pollute its aural memory, immediately after hearing it.
The second, more likely conclusion, is that your taste in music is so narrowly constricted that it results in a failure to appreciate the quality in anything that happens to fall outside of its myopic margins. Absent a four-on-the-floor kick drum, keeping cadence with a unicorn's cantor as it farts out a consistently filtered bass-line - each breath signified with an open hi-hat offset to the downbeat - as it trots along a path set to a saw-tooth lead through a forest of neatly quantized chord progressions, is a considerable over-load to your already over-taxed, restive attention-span. No break, with a galaxy of harmonically dynamic chords, and you're withering under the strain of boredom, waiting for a song to end so that the next might offer some return to an unmitigated, turgid and fetishistic intensity, frequently interrupted with an ultra melodic, rhythmless meadow as the unicorn grazes on cup-cakes laced with MDMA.
Refuse all you want. If you want to call for such protection as, it's just my taste in music, man - I don't have to defend it, you shouldn't even be posting on the internet. What you posted was absolutely ing stupid. |

The Beginning is terribly produced, terribly written, and just frankly, terrible. The only Black Eyed Pea who has an ounce of talent is Fergie and they drown her in Autotune anyway.
Born this Way is well executed, well written, very well produced, and regardless of whether or not you "automatically hate it because it's pop music" it's undeniably unique and doing something different in the pop landscape, and she can actually sing.
See, what you're doing now is pandering to an audience, because you know that 90% of the people on EDM fan-sites are effectively convinced that they can't like any pop music because it's "manufactured trash" or "talentless," which is true sometimes and not others, but a pretty stupid rule of thumb all things considered. So, by posting that, you're just hoping to get people to agree with you. It's like going into a Sony Store and talking to them about how bad XBoxes are.
LOOK AT ME I HATE POPULAR TRANCE ARTISTS AND POP MUSIC. LOOK HOW CULTURED I AM. |

This sounds wicked. |
