thats why the electonic music scene is messed up here. All the guido/affliction people fist pumping and making it miserable for everyone else


yea umm thats few and far between. thats mostly at the large mainstream shows like skrillex, aoki, bassnectar, etc

ive been to the clubs in miami,LA, NYC, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and none of them are dominated by fist pumping dbags.

well, then maybe you're right. I haven't been to any in those cities. Would like to see one in houston if thats the case. I've only been to ampersand

i never went anywhere else in the states because i just figured it would be darshbags as opposed to normal people. went to tiesto at bonnaroo by myself, thats about it but a good time.

in those big cities when you go to clubs people dress like adults. Nice shirts nice jeans etc, some places won't even let you in even if you have a ticket.

This whole neon and snap back hat shite is dumb

It doesn't matter where you are, if you go see a DJ like tiesto, the dbags will be there

Maybe but he is right in this instance. There are even quotes from these so called musicians stating it's a joke.

I'm sure if I was in Ibiza, Spain rolling my face off at one of the best clubs in the world, i would love every second of it regardless of what music is playing.

That being said, "house" music is just the most basic form of electronic music and can appeal to a much wider audience than say DnB, dubstep, glitch, etc. hence there being 100,000 people at one show.

I personally enjoy a more abstract form of electronic music, amient/glitch/psychadelic where the producer creates soundscapes rather than fist pumping beats. It really all just boils down to personal preference, where in the end, no one is right or wrong.
