I said something like this on mdma once and everyone laughed at me.
between music which makes you dance,
and music which makes you want to dance.
death to the first and long live the second.
pretentious
There's a dance where you are lost in the rhythm V a dance where where the rhythm is lost in you.
Ive thought this before, most enjoyment you can get from something that makes you dance is superficial and subconciously you know is going to be gone very quickly. I'd say songs that make you dance tend to have a shelf life (for the individual or the scene in general) of about a month at the very most, so no need to proclaim death really.. music that makes you want to dance is timeless.
yeah. hard 4x4 makes you dance, 2step woos every cell in your body nicely...
It is pretentious, doesn't matter how you phrase it, quote elitist too. "death to music I don't agree with".

dunno about that - more like geeks coming up with fancy reasons for why they don't like dancing

only thing i'm against is lowest common denominator laziness.
I just think it's that you don't understand it. I mean, I don't either, don't get me wrong, but it's just that I don't get it. I was listening to some bloke headlining Creamfields on radio one this weekend, and the crowd were just going apeshit, and it left me feeling totally isolated, but that's what I feel in crowds, and what I've felt at those big banging events when I've been to them. Some people love being in them, relentlessly.
Define 'better'. What are the criteria?
