radi6404 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 That's a valid, sociological questions... It's has been debated on Isratrance a couple of years ago and here are some of the arguments from that thread: But then again - Detroit techno was born by blacks, right? So what gives? There are indeed black people on psytrance: Mumbali - American producer Ian St. Paul, cofounder of TIP records. Keez - Danish old-school DJ Propulsion/Samsara - UK DJ ResonatorXL in Texas + obviously more... I've seen black people at parties + festivals.. But I agree, that the percentage is VERY low... And I can't come up with a proper answer why... /DP 352444[/snapback] Because psychedelic trance isn´t made with the typical african jungle drums and there aren´t ablum there that the titles of them ask god for rain. No really, i think African people are different from european or American people, look the character, the voice and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 he means he's a racist fool. 430771[/snapback] Not necessarily. He didn't say anything derogatory, only that they are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reger Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What do you mean? 430682[/snapback] he replied with joke to DPs post about why there arent much black psy producers. radi joked that there are no african drums in psytrance and that album names are not about asking gods for rain i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riton Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 wtf goes through your head when u say such things... just cuz he's black he's bound to love those african drums and only that? im ashamed to hear such things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmtree Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 it's especially funny to hear that knowing that the majority of the original techno, jungle, and acid house producers and DJs back from the 80s and 90s are black.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeros Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 but i hate rap.....it gives me headaches,makes me want to kill everything that moves... How do you think the mainstream feels when they hear this way over the top bumbumbumbumbumbumswishbumbumbum darkpsy music we listen to There is some very good hip-hop out there that is still uses lyrics and words as an artform around a very good beat, but you will never ever hear find it on your own from the TV or Radio. And no they don't rap about money, drugs, or women but about political systems and oppression and society and whatever other topic there is that they feel they have to say something about. Rap is the new pop music. I think everyone wants to feel more hardcore and badass like they're from the streets so they look up to the latest fitty cent video to get their fix of bad-assedness. I mean look at how pop music was 10 years ago, it was all sing-song fluffy emotional stuff about love, its only logical it would swing to the opposite of that now. Me being from the united states where the Rap epidemic has been going on for the past 8 years ever since Eminem introduced it to white people by being white himself... I find it sadly hilarious when I hear rap from germany or russia, I can't believe that this has spread to the entire world. The funniest part is how every rap-pop song is exactly the same, I can literally tell you which rapper is copying who from the united states and which song he is ripping word for word but. So its pop music, nothing but, and since when has that music ever had any integrity or popularity outside of 15 year olds trying to fit in? G G G G G G G UNIT!

Otto Matta Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 I have found it baffling why this genre is so white-bred, heterosexual, and male-dominated. But it is true that psytrance is not very funky. Even the funky stuff is not very funky compared to real funk music. One thing I've found is that girls especially want booty-shaking music to dance to, and hip-hop lets them do that. And gay men generally find the music abrasive and would prefer house or regular trance. And there also seems to be a correlation between psytrance and the spiritual, and booty-shaking music and the religious. Odd. Does this all mean that we're all, with very few exceptions, just a bunch of unfunky white guys? Appears so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmtree Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 to say any genre of music is bad is juvenile. every genre is like psytrance - 95% of it is utter crap, and the good 5% are hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champalive Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 After all these years, we'd like to know, are there any black psy trance producers. well there is Priest from South Africa, but seriously, any one else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
