I miss the rave scene. Wish this $hit would come back, too bad the silly Rap game is pretty much taking over. I remember the time when everyone was all into HardHouse especially. $hit was dope, just as Rap was dope back then. I'll probably hit up a rave or 2 in the summer in LA. The thing I like about electronica music like Trance, House, Techno, Drum N Bass, etc... is that it seems to get better and better as time goes on because the producing equipment such as Synthesizers keeps getting better as technology progresses. So shit starts sounding less corny. There's some trance out there that's just mind blowing and house that's sick as fuck, same with DnB. Like Benny Benassi, that fool gets down, I love them basslines he uses. These Europeans in general are waaaaay ahead of us when it comes to the Rave scene. Some Raves in like Holland get like 30K deep.
Seems like Rap these days are trying to incorporate more electronica sounds and what not with shit like Hyphy and Crunk, but that's exactly what I don't like. Rap should be more acoustic in form with softer synth sounds.
