| LOL, how did this get on an NBC news site? Is there some section on there where you can submit your own stories now or something? |

I was looking all over to find a "submit your own press release" button, and then I figured that he may have faked the link, but nope. :wtf: |

NBC has a content-sharing deal with Marketwire, a firm that automatically releases press releases. I doubt anyone at NBC ever actually looked at the article or approved it. Just an automatic bull thing. |

Yeah, I saw the copyright notice and figured it was something like that.
If anyone's interested...

"As at 2012, House music has..."
Wow. Poor grammar right at the start.
Edit: Reading further down (with Amazon's 'look inside' feature, of course), it comes off like an entry level college essay. And for 's sakes, 'TRANCE HOUSE'??? And I quote:
| quote: | | Trance House is a style (subgenre) of House music that originated from the Chicago House scene of 1986. |
Straight LOLs. |

| i know its fun and all to criticize this guy, but in writing this book, he's probably done a lot more for the genre than most of us have. i can't even bring myself to write an essay. he deserves some credit. :) |

Yeah, total credit with plumb claims such as this:
| quote: | | Dave Clarke for example, a misinformed Techno DJ, made some public comment at some point about Trance: "I think all trance DJs deep down are embarrassed by what they play. They take it on the chin! They know deep down they're playing watered-down techno." Dave Clarke's comment is false, add to the fact he knows very little about Trance. Trance has very little to do with Techno. His comment is also a falsity being that Trance is historically older than Techno. How could Trance be watered-down techno if it came before Techno. |
