Do you want gamah to post a long arse trance guide?

[eggy]

Best music around...trance...

does not compute

 

[Gamah]

I repeat, trance is for gays on e's.

Mate attention whore somewhere else :| posting the same thing 3 times still doesn't make it funny. I am not homosexual and I have never taken E's so your statement is false and childish.

Whilst not a big lover of it anymore, back in the day I was nuts for my trance. I remember buying the first trance nation on CD and being amazed that all my favourite tunes from the clubs were on it. Would live for weekend, for gatecrasher, wigan pier, monroes, valentes, cream and on the odd occasion, funds permitting, Ministry. Yes, there is a large contingent of drug takers at these clubs, but this is no different to any genre of music played in clubs. Being "off ones head" makes you enjoy the music better, makes it more intense and you lose yourself in it. You cant beat the feeling of your favourite choon comming on, just as you come up, strobe lights flashing, 2000 people off it and dancing, feet going at 200bpm and im sure Gamah will agree.

There is a huge misconception about trance clubs, people think they are just full of chavs, off their heads looking for trouble. This just isnt true at all. In fact, the clubs I have always felt most threatened at are the clubs that play heavy metal or at music festivals. At places like Gatecrasher there is no animosity at all, just people wanting to have a good time and enjoy their chosen choice of music.

The E's bit is probably true, and our balls are yet to touch....

So it's all true

 

[Gamah]

Agreed with Marc (feel dirty)

There is a huge misconception around the genre, always makes me laugh when people say chavs listen to trance..Its only said because people (stupid people) catagorise everything with a 4/4 drum beat as "trance" it's rediculous that people would be willing to comment on something they know little about.
It's like someone said to me "I went to a trance club it was full of chavs" on further investigation they went to a drum and bass club...which ofc is full of chavs, because that along with R&B is what chavs like. I feel safe at events like global gathering and proper clubbing events. Theres no trouble, theres no cnuts going round looking for someone to stab because they "looked at them funny". The crowd (the real crowd, not the wannabe fanbois) are just there for one thing, a good time.

People should realise that every type of dance music they hear is not trance, I suppose it's good in a way that people don't know the difference, it will save the scene being ruined by commericalisation again (oh the dark days of 2001-2 ) I didn't expect a huge yes gamah we love trance type thread. But it's always the "metalers/punks" (the ones that preach individuality) who flame anything that is different to what they like.

I don't go round saying metal and rock are shit, everyone that listens to metal is a long gressy haired bitch that doesn't wash and smokes weed all day, because at the end of the day I am not as ignorent as mey.

Hilarious. Deleting 20 flame posts from your guild recruitment post, or warning people personally attacking you (most of which you won't have noticed as they're deleted fast) was obviously bad modding.

Anyway, back on topic. As I always say, people are entitled to their own opinions indeed. My personal opinion is that trance music is largely uninspiring to me. I know that millions of people love it; fair play to them - I admire people that are passionate about something.

Marc mentioned he felt more threatened at rock gigs. Well, that's mainly because you won't share many stereotypes with the people that go to rock concerts...just like I won't share many stereotypes with those who listen to trance.

Like whatever you like, as long as you appreciate everyone's entitled to their own interests, I guess.

Ok my bad, I didn't read that post after the flamers started to troll :| thanks.

Not really threatened, I just thought there was a lot of tension in the air, why I dont know. I felt more threatened when I went to glastonbury. Yardies robbing people at knife point was fun fun fun :/ But I guess that was the exception, rather than the rule?

I think it's a matter of personal taste etc. I don't feel tension at gigs (especially not at festivals) in the slightest; quite the opposite.

Glastonbury is more of a pop festival these days (compared to the other major ones). You get dickheads at every festival...Reading last year was awful on the last night...no stabbings to my knowledge, but a lot of people robbing/setting fire to tents, blowing up gas canisters...it was like a warzone at 3am...was shitting myself at that point.

Always good to have a bottle of vodka under your pillow, just make sure it has real chunky edges!

See, that's kind of surprising to me...I've been to many a death metal gig and never felt any tension or threat level at all. OK, I fit in visually at one - I'm fairly large and have the requisite hair etc - but having played and attended many, many gigs of different types of music in my time I've usually found that extreme metal gigs are by and large very tolerant types of affairs. Yes, the mosh pit is violent, but it's meant to be - it's a form of music in which you get all your aggression out in the music itself, and as a result people are generally chilled out themselves. You feel invigorated after a death/black metal gig, not inspired to go beat someone up; all your beating-something-up energy has been creatively dispelled by the sheer intensity of the music itself. I've come out of mosh pits covered in bruises but with a huge grin on my face, echoes by the faces of all those around me. Get in the pit and you'll see everyone looking out for everyone else; if someone goes down on the flooor, the nearest 5 people will immediately be helping them up and making sure they're OK. I don't know what metal clubs/gigs you've been to, Marc, but I'd suggest - from the experience of someone who's lived and breathed metal for years - that if you felt threatened, they were not at all representative of the metal crowd as whole.

Trance clubs themselves tend to be OK, since the music itself is about being chilled/blissed-out...it's the straight dance clubs, the more overtly 'disco' type places that are full of the fight-starting chavscum element. Fill a place up with pointless, brain-dead plankton, whose only goal - in fact, about the only activities their tiny minds can encompass - is getting shitfaced and getting laid...and fights inevitably ensue. Metal crowds are there for the music, and will look out for each other in the intensity of it. Trance crowds are chilled out by the music itself anyway. Disco chavs are just out to show everyone else how hard they think they are...

Got to disagree with you there. It's usually the R+B/drum'n'bass disco pop set decrying anything different. The music they listen to is so conformist and brain-dead, they're mentally strait-jacketed after a while and can't think out of the box at all. Metalheads really are tolerant most of the time, so are goths and industrial types.

Agree with this entirely. Though it's ironic. People never give a second thought to poking fun at the indy/rock type of music. Though i was at a student night at a club recently and they played 30 minutes of the above mentioned music. For those 30 minutes the dance floor was absolutely packed and there wasn't that many people jumping around for the entire night.

As soon as it went back to the R+B, Shit Hop and so on, the dance floor emptied

Oh, absolutely. When I first moved to Nottingham and just need a job, any job, I worked briefly in a bar. Fucking awful job, especially for someone who hates smoking like I do. Aaaanyway...they were playing the usual disco pop shit, then suddenly 'In The End' by Linkin Park comes on and the whole place livens up, everyone singing or whatever, then soon as it went back to the disco pop shit it died down again. Was like someone flicking a 'Happy People' switch on and off.

 

[Phooka]

Shit Hop and so on.

^^ u never heared good HipHop and why people left the dancefloor cuz 90% of the white folks have no rhythem /dance

I like metal/alternative/punk/goth

Used to enjoy hardcore n trance - clubs were usually fine. Not a metal lover at all but been to a few clubs with a couple of people who were - and loved every minute of it (even if i wasnt keen on the music) everyone I found was friendly and up for a laugh/chat etc and teh mosh pit is mondo fun

Tbh I enjoy most music to some degree (except Bee Gees, Abba, Cliff Richturd etc) and Glasto is one of the best places for finding a lil bit of everything - I think its got better since they put up some decent fences - though I am gutted cos I have to pay to get in now - but the amount of people inside is lower so at least you can move around more freely. Love me festivals and can't wait for Glasto next yr if they put it back on !!

 

[Overdriven]

Gamah, aye.

Wouldn't say no to an industrial list, either.

 

[tris-]

no i dont really care. but im also not a fag either.

why do all your polls never have enough options to cover all possible responses? :/

 

[AngelHeal]

#1 tm 100 is most likely DJ Tiësto or DJ Chuckie xD

[griralith]

ehrm so wrong....

 

[griralith]

I repeat, trance is for gays on e's.

and you are fucking clueless....

 

[tris-]

if you mean him, then why even ask the question to begin with?

 

[Amildin]

Go on, if you think your up to making it, make me a new CD

:worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

Trance is all about teh love... and it fucking pwns. I hear all kind of music, but listening to trance always get me in a good mood, feeling ready to take on the world. Yes alot of ppl there are on drugs, but go to every other place theres music and u find ppl wasted on all kinds of shit.

Tiesto/Armin/Ferry can ressurect a cemetary with thier sets...

try listening to these:

Ferry Corsten - Fire (Ron van Den Beuken mix)
Active Sight - Adrenalin
Orkidea - Beautiful (Alt And F4 Remix)

bah i could go on

 

[tris-]

trance maybe good, but if someone doesnt like it then its no reason to be offensive to them is it?

 

[Ezteq]

*cough*


























would that be the numa numa song?
