          They don't make fun of me, but it definately raises a few eyebrowes.

          Then I ask what type of music they listen to/what artists they like & end up feeling sorry for them based on their their poor to appalling taste !

          This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.

                    I usually don't bring it up to people at work at all except for the few who actually like EDM too. The EDM haters see it only as music for raves and all night ecstasy parties. Over the years, I found it better to avoid this issue with co-workers.

                      As long as my ears are satisfied...I don't really care what people think or say about my music.

                      Actually in the modeling industry most of them like the beats and grooves of progressive sound...and if they don't like it, well I just play it LOUDER!

                        Since not everyone understands house music and hence its a spiritual thing , a body thing , a soul thing , here comes the different tastes of appreciating such genres , where lately the EDM ( Electronic Dance Music ) is conquering the music industry . Back to my knowledge , its a TASTE and everyone has his own SALIVA !
                        Keep this EDM going ....

                          This is always the funny part when I get to know people at work and topic changes to music tastes. The majority of people around me @ work are older than 30 and all hear the usual stuff..radio pop and mainstream music. Their reaction when I tell them I listen to all sorts of EDM but mainly progressive is always entertaining....most have zero clue what I am talking about and only know "Techno" as the single genre of EDM and for them it represents Music from Hell for Drug addicted kids. Others risk their neck with careless talk. For some this comes pretty unexpected obviously and most can't categorize it and I love to see the doubt creases on their faces when they try to say something nice though they think WHOA.
