I wouldn't go so far to try a and dissaprove of an entire genre when allthough trance is terrible, Techno is a larger term, Lot's of artists use instruments to make samples, And that requires some skill, half of them also produce their own work and have extensive knoweldge of mixing and sound recording technology. Stick up a better arguement. |

Although it takes quite a bit of skill to make it, even if it's computer generated. Besides, emo and screamo use real instruments too, want to me why they aren't legitimate? I hate most rap music, the lyrics aren't deep, and it's all about sex, but I still recognize it as music.... close minded tard.

Some teens do like Techno and Trance and ARE kind of annoying, but not all of them. I do find that stating that Techno and Trance are NOT music a little too harsh. I like Hip-Hop and Rnb. =]

Just because you don't like something doesnt mean it isn't good. It just means you don't like it. Just because you don't like techno or emo or screamo doesn't mean it isn't music, it's just not right for you. Emo or screamo isnt about ****ing shredding on guitar. I don't really know what its about... I guess whose voice can go the highest or trying to be really cute and getting groupies. Who cares, its music despite whether they have sweep arpeggio solos or not. Maybe they're not as talented as Led Zeppelin, but I personally can't stand that faggots voice. Page was great though. Understand that different genres of music are there for different purposes and just because YOU don't like it, doesn't mean the guy next to you doesn't. I don't like country, or this shitty rap about drugs and alchohol and *****es. BUT I RESPEECT IT. Because those faggots are making more money than I ever will, and they're doing something that thousands of people love. Anyway. If you can't respect all types of music, then you're just another meathead. So kill yourself. |

Credits: 0 Spent time on board: 0:26:08 Hours Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Ok first off let me school yall about electronic music: ![]() 1.techno/trance/house/Dn'B/breaks/hardcore/ etc. -It all takes musical theory to write and uses the same chords,scales,modes and song structure, that any other genre's use. WTF? u think u can just push a computer button and BOOM! its made.? NO! electronic music is made several different ways: keyboards,trackers,groove boxes,sound modules,software synth,vst and midi controllers. As far as these cheap "loop" programs only noobs and stupid people who think they can play guitar use these for a backing track. These are NOT used to make "real" electronic music. So yes electronic music does use live intrutments, appartly yall have never been to a samash or any other instrutment store 2.As for "unknowndrummer6" do your research, before u speak again, k thx. and btw if u wanna "hate" on techno or any other genre. Look at yourself. Led zepplin? cmon no one wants to see a old-washed up geezer with a nasty hairy chest and super tight pants. And as for "skill" any pimple faced wanna-B can play "stair way to heaven" its so ***in lame and annoyin. And yes i play guitar myself and i can tell u that jimmy pageis just a rip-off of old american blues music. He brought nothing new to guitar at all, except him using a violin bow on his strings like a idiot. Real are: paul gilbert, steve vai, buckethead, dimebag, jimi hendrix,stevie ray & alot others i forget to mention. 3.Music is Music, if it has a beat, a key root, and structure it is music. =====this is my first post====cuz this topic pissed me off==== ===and yes i play diablo2======if any wants to colab on some songs email me, i can lay down guitar tracks and compose any type of eletronic stuff. |

what does that mean? that makes no sense at all. if you are referring to dime and vai not making real music then you are legally retarded. if u dont like em fine. most people dont like instrumental s. but most people who play a real guitar and is good at it loves instrumentalists. i mean ppl that play guitar as in electric not guitar hero. but you need to specify more in your posts

Also, I looked up the definition of music. 1 a : the science or art of ordering tones or sounds in succession, in combination, and in temporal relationships to produce a composition having unity and continuity b : vocal, instrumental, or mechanical sounds having rhythm, melody, or harmony It sounds like techno and trance are, in definition, more valid than your 70's music. I do not have a biased opinion, I am actually a big fan of led zeppelin and I really don't like techno at all. I just hate when people like you post shit like this.
