how many hard house clubbers are out every weekend?? more than trance because there is more HH clubs cos thats what fills em.

I'm not sure what your point is Jay.

 

I'd (subjectively) say that hard house attracts more of a "caner" culture - the younger crowd who have to cane it every weekend. So in that sense, yes there is a greater demand for HH events because every man and his dog wants to listen to HH, and they want to listen to it every bloody day. But it doesn't mean that it won't die. I mean, speed garage was really big once.

 

Trance has peaked but it's not going away. An even better example is techno - relatively speaking there are [censored] all techno events, but is it dying? Is it [censored], it's as old as the hills, and still not going away.

 

Like Pepsi says, as long as there are people into a given scene, and it's not just a fad, it will continue to thrive.

AGREED!! HH is a total fade and nothing more!

Hmm. It's doing alright for a "fad". At least it's diversifying a bit more these days (albeit self-indulgently, and labelling every single spin-off genre as a genre in its own right...)

 

A few years ago I thought [prayed?] that teeny-bopper boy bands were just a fad...

The music that we call hard house is obviously going to change but I think there will always be a demand for hard music for people to dance to.

Agreed. There will always be a demand for naff pop music too.

that dutch trance pic looks like a scene from "the crystal maze", where they try and grab all the gold tickets... hehe, wonder how many crystals they've had...

there will always be dance music.

there will always be hard whatever music.

 

there appears to be some bollox hybrid of techno, trance and funk at the moment, and i hope it dies soon.
