[QUOTE="sirius, post: 46396, member: 258"] Hey, Piano choones are my thang, and even I must agree with you 100%. I love my piano's but it was getting to the verge of ridiculus sometimes. However, thats how music evolves - folk get tired of the same old shite, no matter what genre it is, so from the best elements of that style another musical style generation appears and when that gets too commercialised it dies and another is born... it goes on and on. One thing is for sure, those who thought dance music would die a death back in the mid 90's were very wrong. I bet its the longest lasting music genre of the last 60 years. Punk/disco went in and out in the 70's, the Quo etc got stale and that style went late 80's, the farm/jesus jones style went after 91's etc etc. But dance music lives on, in whatever form. Thank god. Old or new it beats thrash guitars and boy band factory mass produced twaddle. If its dance music and it aint funky or intelligent with a bit of emotion in it, then its poor. Old skool has the happy/rough emotion to it and epichouse and some drum&bass stuff has the intelligence and new innovations pushing boundries further. But admittedly, these have either gone stale or are getting stale - I just love them anyway and always will and havent noticed yet what the new twist will be....but for me, hardhouse and arpeggio'd/morphed to death trance isnt it. Theres just no feeling there. Bigbeats/hybrid style breaks has the groovey element that often lacks in newer stuff. What I dance to and what I listen to can be two totally different things sometimes. Hybrid mix of Papua new guinea would get be dancing in a club and Sunday club is what I really enjoy listening to in a different way, if you know what I mean, even though I would dance to it too if I was at some prog house club.:)...... Just like piano's got done to death on virtually every single record in 91/92 like you say(and I agree), that bloody warbling arpegg trance and morphing is todays equivalent I suppose. But even that is better than chart fodder innit !!!!. Sirius. [/QUOTE]
