anyone else ask this question sometimes?

EACH TO THEIR OWN, but I just donīt get it, one or two tunes are a laugh, otherwise my general impression is that you have to be muntered and/or have lost your hearing and appreciation of the nuances of rhythm that tend to pervade the best house, techno, trance etc etc.

Or am I just an old fart? (at 20?)

a while ago you were saying that you thought you had to be off your tits to appreciate techno.

you can't really knock it till you've tried it (although i admit that i used to). thing about hard house is that it's vastly different in a club environment with a big crowd compared to listening on your own with tinny PC speakers...

So dont go into HH tents at festivals or listen to it if you dont like it.

Its not that difficult really...I hate garage and R&B so I dont go to clubs where they play it and I dont listen to it on the radio.
