I'm getting confused as to why any of this matters, again. Is it lunchtime yet? I need my carer to wheel me back inside because it's beginning to rain out here. Maaaaaaaaaatlock!

Wah wah wah
This complaining obviously represents a minority given that a lot of these artists are still relevant today and you're still talking about them so they obviously made the right move.
Also if he sold out good for him. Money and happiness is the aim of the game and props to anyone for doing it well.

They abuse any producers or fans that like EDM over Trance music. I am just sick of the hypocrisy ******** where Trance fans call other genres commercial when their scene was full of acts that went commercial throughout the 2000s.
Every genre has fan boys. On my YouTube videos I have commenters saying "F*ck Skrillex" when he's got nothing to do with anything.
Hardstyle fans may complain about house kicks being too soft
Progressive/Electro fans may insult a deep/future house fan for jumping on the latest bandwagon/trend, they could insult a hardstyle fan for the music being too hard/fast and could hit back at trance fans for it being too boring.
It's similar to the way elite dance music fans may be caught complaining that "it's not the same anymore" whilst commercial EDM consumers may be completely arrogant to everything outside their bubble of Calvin Harris, Avicii and David Guetta.
It only takes a look inside a few YouTube video comments to see that fans of all genres are abusing each other. Not just trance fans.

At the end of the day EDM is just another word for new House music. And it is a genre that has made Trance a sound of the past..
Trance is included in EDM. Even hardcore falls into the category of EDM, so does the relatively new Tropical House. Naturally Progressive/Big Room/Electro are the first things you associate when you think EDM since currently they are the most commercial genres.
But seriously, as long as it's made electronically, you can dance to it and it's music.
It's EDM.

Your first mistake was reading youtube comments, and your second taking them seriously lol. In every single vid on youtube the comments just consist of a load of 12 your olds or older idiots abusing each other about absolutely nothing. It doesn't matter what the vid is.

Is that a new name for Jungle? Lol

Right. That's what i was thinking. All 'dance' music is EDM. What people associate with the term 'EDM' as you mentioned i just think of as pop music. Or pop-dance music.

You're right. But in a way it's like the instinct of a music fan lashing out due to their young age.
Besides, I see the similar insults thrown by 18-25 year old EDM fans on twitter. The only difference is that it's spelt correctly.

If I were to describe it, it's like tech house if you were to throw sand, a palm tree, a deck chair and a cup full of sea water at it. If you have the time, a quick "tropical house mix" search would explain it all. It's been trickling its way into UK charts since last Spring.

like Hard2Get said, don't bother reading what youtubers write. And on here, rafferty is making this to be the "gamergate of trance". It's propably just a vocal minority.
... Kinda like us here when it comes to today's Hardcore :P

Some feel great being close to what they perceive as the pulse of their generation, others like being the underdog.

Tiesto tells why he ditched Trance for House.
