    Re: Why Dance Music Doesn?t Get Played On the Radio

    What I mean with underground is > not mainstreem. I don´t understand how you can relate the term "underground" with me focusing image. Everything relates to an image, every term in any language. What I meant is: Image isn´t the main attraction in electronic music. I´m curious to know what term you would personally use to describe electronic music, clubbing, raves? It popular all over the wolrd but remains hidden under a veil. You don´t see Fat Boy advertising sun lotion on TV, and you don´t want to see that happen.


    btw, Whats meth??

      1. Underground / mainstream makes me think of when it was "cool" to listen to Nirvana. I don't care if a tune makes it to the tops or not. If I like it, I like.
      2. You don't see FBS advertising sun lotion no (hahahaha, a briton advertising sun lotion ), but you do see David Guetta advertising hair gel on tv...
      3. ... and no, I don't care if they do.
      4. Meth: http://www.onea.org/Methamphetamine.htm

        1.I now see what you mean, you are right. Underground isn´t the most apropiate word. And I do not most definetely listen to electronic music because it´s "cool". Come on dude. I listen to it because it opens my mind, interstellar implosions to infinity inside my brain.
        2.I know you are smart enough to know that FBS and sun lotion were just means to make a point.
        3. I gotta try that shit.

                  My $.02...

                  There's a difference between how many people like a catchy tune to snap their fingers to and sing along with and how people who are truly passionate about music - whatever style - listen to and perceive it. I suspect we can all identify with how electronic music moves us, how it's more a mood you feel than a melody you hear, how we can immerse ourselves into it, etc.

                  There's always more of the former type of people than the latter. At the end of the day, you either get it and find yourself in the music or you don't. I don't try to convert or educate my friends who don't fiend for electronic music every day the way I do.

                      Good article. However, in my opinion the article misses a key point. Like in every genre, there's a lot of low quality electronic music. Trying to hide behind this "complexity" issue, most of the tracks out there are repetitive, unoriginal, and poorly produced. Therefore, people have the impression that electronic music is monotonous and loud. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of great electronic music out there, but let's avoid being too indulgent.

                        It's really strange to say this, but from my own view point, I really tend to get along with people that listen to our style of music. Not to say that I do not have friends that listen to other music, but overall I tend to relate to people a lot more who listen to Trance (joking). And it relates to all aspects of life. Have not figured that out yet, but thought it was interesting. yes.

                        There is a certain mind set I guess, the coolest thing is that we pick our music, and we are not told what is Hot by the TOP 40 club.

                        love the untz, die by the untz.

                          Why so? Could it be that he comments on this label because of total sales versus what the rest of the shit does in the world? Underground is just an adjective. Don't read too far into the word. Otherwise, you'll start fucking a fucking ugly dude and tell everyone it's a chick.

                            Cool to listen to Nirvana? What kind of fuckwads do you know? I'm not harping you because you're an idiot, but rather, because you say stupid things. I guess I have that luxury of not communicating with the retards that listen to mainstream music.

                              Yeah. That low quality assfuck is called "Florida Breaks". Fucking wretched.

                                Good read but they left out one thing. You either get it or you don't. That is why electronic music will never be popular.
                                Common Sense is not Common at all.
