Alright, so far we've established that everyone here loves trance/electonica music and events. I want to know what everyone else likes other than this. In my DJ'ing experience, I've played Mexican, Country, Hip Hop, etc, for weddings, graduations, ets. What I want to know is, what do you put into your CD player when you're NOT listening to Trance/Electronica. And what type of Events/Concerts does everyone attend when there are no local raves and larger scale electronic events going on? I'm just looking to see if there is more common ground than this genre.

Well, (and excuse me, this is my first post so I'm OBVIOUSLY a n00b ) I listen to some emo, and some prog rock type stuff... In Flames is a wonderful melodic death metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden... I also rock some Nine Inch Nails. I listen to hardcore bands Gwen Stacy, Once Nothing, and a bit of ZAO.

And for people who enjoy both rock music and EDM, there's always Rammstein. Yeah, I know I'm gonna look like one of those people that don't know what music is: "HEY LOOK ITS HEAVY METAL IN GERMANESE WITH DRUMS THAT SOUND LIKE THEIR FROM FL STUDIO!!!111!1!!!1!!!!!!(sin x/cos x)!1!!11!1" But they really do have some nice work. And it's not like it's technical at all, I could probably play any one of their songs by ear, first time through. But they just sound good. And if I ever get DJ equipment, I'm gonna do some sweet remixes of their stuff.... haha.

So yeah... I don't really have an extensive knowledge of any kind of music genre, and I'm certainly not gonna pretend I know my way around trance music. But I'd say I have some fairly wide tastes.

So, anyone who says that EDM listeners are narrow-minded, suck on this.

I really really love all music- I at least give it all a chance. Im not a big rap fan, but if you give me enough drinks I will dance to anything...rem...shake my bum to anything!! HAHHA ,, I really love classic rock, new age, alternative, and I adore playing mustic on my many instruments- usually I play classical.

I always make a point to see Santanam Green Day, STP, Smashing Pumpkins (going this weekend!!), My Chemical Romance, Blink 182, Nine Inch Nails, Tom Petty, Sarah MCGlaughlin....loads of bands- whenever they are in my area.

Some of my all time favs would be:

Green Day
Nine Inch Nails
The Doors
Stone Temple Pilots
Rolling Stones
Santana
Tom Petty
Blink 182
The killers
My Chemical Romance
Sarah McGlaughlin (spelling??)
Oh and anything on the Dr Demento albums
