whats it all about then?

i mean i grew up in the 80s and electro was kind of ok then, but its like 2008 and now

I'm not too sure to be honest, I own a lot of electro- a good 20% of my collection consists of it. Personally I like to have something a little less hectic to wind down too. Electro is good for that, a nice bit of funk.

i honestly think your fooling yourself, a delusion that it is cool, it must be, it has to be, it's the trendy new thing.
it sounds shit, it's not even gay. When i say gay, i mean new wave, and alternative and cutting edge.
it's for posers and closets. hence threads with the titles in this forum. Barbie and Ken. And Timmy and Tommy.

Electro used to be hardcore and have street cred. Not this sterile homogenous bullshit.

Fooling myself how? I like to play electro, it is as simple as that. I have no spiritual reason, no deeper explanation for liking it, I just do. It is made up of sounds that please me.

I think mate, that you weren't hugged enough as a child- and the internet is some kind of out let for that. I'm glad this makes you feel good, all this attention like. Need a hug?

no thanks. i'm just curious as to why people listen to elctro. i find it boring as hell and about as far removed from techno as r n b.

[markandrew]

If anything,electro was gayer in the 80s than it is now.

I got told off in the pub (we seem to have a PC pub) for saying the music at this party was "gay". I even explained I really didn't want to use the word "gay" in any way that could be construed as derogatory, but it went "boomboomboomboombom woooHooooo...". Which is gay... (Sorry "camp" maybe).

were there rather alot of men in leather trousers in this pub?

your lack of personality?

if you feel the need to open retarded threads, do it in the chill out forum.

i'm sorry to say this aarton, but ffs, what sort of stupid, idoitic, closed minded thread is this?

it just so happens that music is a very personal thing. just cause YOU don't like electro doesn't mean it's gay/for idiots/or it sucks. just like i don't like the cheeky girls, doesnt mean anyone who listens to the cheeky girls is gay. christ, horses for courses and all that. ffs mate, GROW UP.

why didnt you just start a thread that said - i don't understand electro, can someone please help me understand it? instead what do you do? start this shit!

honestly, if you'd have done this, i would have given you links, a history, a real insight into the genre. instead, you get ppl's backs up! i advise anyone else not to get sucked in by this shit. please ignore this ridiculous post.
