i really think the Next Big Thing (TM) will be some combination of
ambient and dance in the same song.. example: song starts very ambient,
builds slowly, slowly, slowly, until it's built up into a driving very
danceable song - over the time of about 20 minutes..
it's become very commonplace here for djs to use long sections of ambient
music in the *prime* time of an event for up to 4 minutes or so at a
time.. ambient breaks are becoming longer and longer in dance music so i
think this is the next logical step..
