Yeah, trance is pretty bad, when it comes down to it. You can always tell
a bad genre when there's waay too much subgenrefication. That means
they're struggling for a way to claim they're diverse and interesting, when
it's still the same formula with some snare rushes or different keys.

You don't have to like it. I don't. But ya gotta realize that that's
where it started (although "rave" music back then was quite a bit
different, granted). It's just history. It's like, it's pretty hard to
have a talk about evolution if there's a bunch of creationists around. You
just argue and argue, cos they don't know what's up.

Listening to rubbish at one point in your life is definitely a prerequisite
to the idm club.
