I like some rock that has techno "elements", would Prodigy count? I couldn't listen to purely techno music because it's soul-less to me. ^What kind of hippie vogueing is that? The guy in the 2nd video went in though.

i totally agree with you..i feel that pure edm music is souless...i can fuk with house music at times but pure edm where those no instrumentation..i avoid that ish like a plague :scustjay: it;s kind of weird because i don't mind when rap producers sample from EDM:





..oh the kid is doing shuffling...lol lots of edm kids got buttburt when LMAFO took their dance and made a soft vers of it..just like we got mad when the cacs started " harlem shaking" lol "HEY THATS NOT THE REAL HARLEM SHAKE" lol

The 10 best Detroit techno documentaries ever – Beatport News

few documentaries. there seems to be a lot of edm education needed.. some statements are like if a bushman heard ying yang twins and thought that was the epitome of hip hop. nikkas hear fukkin tiesto and think thats what sums up house and techno :snoop:

yeah i feel you..you can pretty much make this argument for any genre of music to punk, metal rock, electronic music etc but is it wrong to just reject the muic entirely because you don't feel it??

its lame to hear tiesto and disregard a whole genre, but a breh can do whatever they like.

breh, u said that 'pure edm is souless' when all the cats that created the shyt was flipping and sampling soul music and the shyt had swing, until them weird germans got a hold of it and made it all

the only genres i'm willing to let a person say 'fukkit, its all trash' is country and western. screamo, and industrial.

its like 'dubstep' mufukkas hear skrillex and go 'wow dubstep is trash'... but really, that shyt is not 'pure' dubstep, so people are forming an opinion on a genre, based off something, that while popular, in no way defines the genre.

Same reason Black folks don't listen to jazz or funk anymore. But I agree, there is interesting techno out there. I always liked the old stuff, and also shyt like Aphex Twin.
