Thank you Juho, and im sorry for personal smudging but we have history u and

and i agree with what youre saying too...but i think i have to clear up what i meant about the advertising aspect...I agree that you only see a few advertisements for electronica music on tv...but if u notice most of those r for compilation cds...and i agree about it being popular because its seen as part of the youth culture...but i think that it is not on its way out but rather its way in...not to say its life will be long but if u take a few key elements from the past...punk was part of the youth scene and became extremely popular and still is...because its the youth that keeps it alive...and the youth like things because they're cool not because its good...heck i was like that a for a short time when i was younger with punk music...Another example is listen to the music on commericals in the 80's and 90's...rap got its lift from commercials...not necessarily ppl raping but the music that would accompany the artist...now granted there was hard rock in there too...but i remember saying why the hell is all this crap rap on commericals...back b4 i started listening to music with an openmind...and look at things now almost every commerical especially for car companies and movies they have electronica...now i think ppl will get bored of trance but only the trance compilations...they will search out the artist b4 they just drop the genre...and if they dont find anything then they will listen to something else...
companies are just starting to advertise and promote electronic music...and with all the negativity behind raves going on, atleast in the states...the youth will eat it up because they want what adults dont want them to have...the record companies feed ppl in little bits b4 going in for the kill...and they r just getting ppl use to the sound of electronica, putting it in movies, commericals (tv & radio), and some tv shows theme songs...

but i will say i honestly dont want that pop trance to become popular...because i think there is so much more then just that out there...heck im working on my own style right now...its all on paper right now and all i have to do is implement it...

Just as a disclaimer...this is what i have noticed in the states and the US doesnt always go the way the rest of the world goes...Juho can tell u that one
But i think it will either become extremely popular...or something completely out from left field will become popular...can any1 deal with another wave of boy bands

peace
Blank
