Thanks IntrepidS for agreeing with me on this. By the way your avatar is the best on this site i think. DJ Tiesto is god almighty himself. :cool: :rasta:Quote:
Thanks for clearing that up for me man. I have started refraining from using the term techno several months ago (maybe longer), when I realized that none of what I listen to is actually techno, it is all house, trance, and their different forms. Now I know to tell people who tell me that techno sucks that they simply don't know what they are talking about because I don't ever listen to techno and they've got the wrong perspective on the entire electronica genre.
For those of you that can't tell the difference and say electronica is "noise" or "shit", I can say with the utter most confidence that you lack any sense in music and all you "give a fuck about" is the "vocals" that are shitty and which belong under the category "gay bitches who cant sing" listed above by someone.
You are musically blind and don't focus on the melody's or basic elements that make up a REAL song like Intro, melody build up, main melody, breakdown, changeup, final breakdown, outro. You are too worried about "gay bitches who cant sing". Vocals are not what should make up a song entirely it should be evenly balanced with instrumentals and beats. That's why Vocal Trance is better than most of the SHIT out there that you musically dead people listen to.
Those of you who can't tell the difference between electronica genres are either not trying or are just plane retarded and musically braindead from a mix of crappy lyrics and shitty as fuck instrumentals.
Go LISTEN to music by Moby and there you will have techno. Listen to Paul Van Dyke or Armin Van Burren or Tiesto and you will have Trance. There is as big of a difference as there is between Rock and Hip-Hop.
No i'm not dissing everyone's music here because it's not electronica i'm just showing how foolish some people really are. :mad:
*NOTICE* Use of CAPS and BOLD is for the idiots to read and get it through their head. :cursing:

So in my opinion every sub genre of sub genre of genre this thread covers over techno and electronica sucks to me.
Good thing you can't take my opinion away :)
But you can call me an asshole.

I don't like rap, it simply doesn't appeal to me, but I know and listened to enough about it to diffenciate between the genres. That's an invalid excuse.Quote:

Despite my S/N I don't like trance or techno. I also don't like female vocals unless they're really deep like Alison Moyet (Yazoo) or Annie Lennox (Eurythmics).
My reason for not liking trance is that it all sounds the same (as in the sounds used) and the light female vocals. I don't even know what techno is to be honest!
That doesn't mean I can't appreciate other genres though. I do like a lot of hip-hop even though I prefer early 80's synthpop.
Anyone noticed how some fans of rock and metal CANNOT, under any circumstances, appreciate other music genres. I've noticed it a lot, and believe it to be FACT!
And the "real instrument" argument doesn't work. A real instrument is something you can sit down with and manipulate with your body. Some people would argue that turntables and mixers are real instruments! And if a synthesizer isn't a real instrument because "the sound is electronically produced" then bear that in mind when you see someone smashing a guitar on stage with all the circuits flying out of it. And with tons of electronic effect pedals everywhere I could safely say that most people don't know what a clean electric guitar actually sounds like!
Even though sitting in front of a computer to make music takes talent, I don't regard it as real music because playing real (ahem, physical) instruments (whether they be drums, guitars, keyboards) is actually quite tiring and requires extra elements of skill, co-ordination and timing.
For those of you who like your music heavy, check out this album. The drummer is amazing! Then check out some of my beautiful equipment over at www.keyboardassassin.tk
anyone here likes ambient?
now that's chill
Neophyte rules btw:)
SLAMMIN VINYL used to be fuckin' amazing!Quote:
