Here is what i have noticed about the music industry...they tend to grab up artist who have a few or even one catchy song, have a sellable look to them and then ride out the profit on the individual...they do this in relation to what is selling on the streets to the consumers...but this doesnt mean they dont have talented musicians within the record label aswell...they just dont over feed them to the consumers...they know the artist is talented and will make good music so instead of over flooding the market they feed the consumers little bits at a time to get a steady following...at first they loose profit but the gain is worth it in the end...and with all the one hits making them CASH they can sit on a few hear and there for long term growth...The record companies take chances, its just not even close to the number of over done bullshit they can reap the benifits from...But the term good is relative to the listener...so when they take chances i mean they take them on skillful songwriters...but its like a couple speckles of gold on a pile of shit...

As for a couple chord tricks that is minute compared to what else lies in the knowledge bag...there are so many more techniques available to you then just that...that is really only a step up from common rythmic configurations for trance...

Thats just how i feel about it...

remember you never quit learning...and if you ever notice you do...you should kill yourself LOL!!!

Juho the answer to this is clear. Dance music lacks 80's style brass sounds and power chords. Now if someone had the balls to integrate this (at the cost of ruining their bedroom career) then I think dance music would be better :lol:

But then again....im not sure if society is ready for such a cool concept.

DS :P

fuck i knew you'l say synth brass DS hehe
i think the oberhims have got to get back to their golden years era. :wink:
viva la matrix!
viva la oberhim! :D

It's just so cool! It's so cool that nothing can be cooler... IN AN INVERSE WORLD!

Muhahahahaah......

:oops:

everytime someone mentions 80's i think about my girlfriend in japan.

shes probably tearing up a karaoke competition in tokyo somewhere as i write this message :wink:

"You spin me right round baby, right round like a record baby, right round, round round round."

Ahh the 80s. When cool music had absolutely nothing at all to say. :D

And don't even get me started on the Karaoke culture here in Japan Blay! Hehehe.

Theres a really good Japanese composer (god ive forgotten his name). Well anyways he used loads of DX7 in the 80's. He made some really catchy 80's pop. Ill try and find it for you...

Oh....thinking of 80's music has motivated me to dig this out (reaching for the video....hehe). Check out another Howard Jones classic from the late 80's! God I love it LMAO.

Classic!

When I listen to music like this in the car with my g'friend it always makes me feel good. If only modern pop had some atmosphere like this :P

For dance music, I really like this sort of stuff at the moment, tracks 7, 8, 15 I like particularly. There are clips to listen to.
