The most non-ignorant post on GD in a while. I’m serious.
Nothing irks me or makes me more irritated than people calling all EDM “techno”. In my opinion one of the most common misconceptions in music ever. I wonder who was the genius who began using “techno” as a general term for this genre of music…
Well, I was half kidding. Although you’re going to have to accept the fact that a lot of this stuff is made by computers these days without actual musicians or artists being involved.
Well if you think about it, ‘techno’ is short for ‘technological’ and since the music is made with mostly digital instruments I can see how easy it is to start calling all electronic dance music techno. Not to mention that pretty much all genres and sub-genres of music are usually one to three syllables in length (hip hop, rock, punk rock, classical, jazz, rhythm and blues was shortened to r n’ b, jungle, dubstep, death metal).
I’d keep going but I’m falling asleep.

thank you based god
Awesome! I roughly knew the differences in the sub genres but this really was an eye opener. I have to say that I can’t stand a lot of electronic music(dub step is the worst of them), but I love me some Progressive Trance when I’m driving.
techno, house, electro and jungle were all originally black musics, trance is a purely white invention
guess which one has no redeeming qualities
Trance = gay, Europe gayness
House = funky, Chicago styles
Techno = that hard badass shit from Detroit that destroys everything it touches
house is extreeeeeemely gay dude. have you not heard jamie principle? aaron carl? the genre is basically disco with synths, of course its mad gay
You’re right…house CAN be gay. I was thinking more of tech house.
Trance IS gay, no doubt.
Detroit Techno…nobody will ever mistake it for the gayness.
And there you have it OP.
Eventhough house music historically takes credit by being created by the black gay communities in Chicago and popular within the gay community which gives it that “gay” vibe, it’s still probably the best well produced sub genre of EDM. Ironically, French House is IMO one of the least “gay” types of house lol.
I don’t know how anyone would put techno over house. Don’t get me wrong, techno can be good, but come on haha.
yall are haters. trance is great. let us have our music
the gayer the better as far as house goes
trance isnt really gay, it’s just eurotrash
Darude - Sandstorm is its own genre.
And, out of curiosity, where does happy hardcore and those other sub-genres fit into this?
That goes in the super gay category.
I figured. Shit like speedcore with anime lyrics irks me beyond belief. I just wanted an umbrella term to direct my hate towards.
hardcore and its subgenres like speedcore aren’t gay, they are just angry for no reason. HAPPY Hardcore is extra hella bubbly rainbow gay though.
one goes like… unts unts unts unts unts unts unts unts unts
then theres ones that are like… unts chika unts chika unts chika unts chika
sometimes theres some that are just like… chika unts unts chika unts unts chika unts unts
but most the time theyre all like… unts unts unts unts unts unts unts unts unts
The funniest description I ever heard of House was it sounding like a bunch of fart noises.
LoL!
