Rollins meming aside, he's right. EDM is fucking trash and the "rave" are nothing more than commercialized, corporate-sponsored shitholes where people go to "pop mollys" while listening to "big drops".
Once again, old Hank is right on the money.

>i was born in le wrong generashom :**(((((
that's like hearing queen and led zepplin and saying all rock is trash you fucking retarded curmudgeons fuck you
skate mean live clean
wow it's like it's really 2012
>ITT: people who have never been outside want to comment on rave culture
there are unsponsored raves all over the world, on beaches, in disused warehouses, in privately owned homes
think what you want about the music but your highschool tier excuse of "its commercialised therefore it is bad" like people are such sheep that they consume certain things just because they are sold is completely moronic and inaccurate regardless

Go to bed, Greg.
MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WAR

EDM is a term made up by American journalists, it describes shit. EDM is a nonsense term only used by yanks in the last five years, everyone else in the world calls it dance music.
Which is funny because America had a big part in house and technos existence. Like any genre, the underground is the best and what most people hear is the pleb pop shi,t as you said "corporate-sponsored shitholes" that is the antitheses of what rave culture was in the 80's/90's

loving every laugh

Pick one
>>63600562
because owning the distributor somehow makes your ventures less commercial, right
are you over 18?
>>63600616
Yes. Let's not resort to ad hominem. From what I gather in this video, Henry was criticizing the rise of commercial mainstream music catchu music popularized on the radio. Though he did get commercial success, it wasn't through a big record deal, but through hard work
>>63600449
dude that link isn't even edm its like 80s synth pop like new order. not the same at all and you know it.

It's true though. EDM is trash that shouldn't even be considered music and "DJs" just press play on their laptop.
I like the UK Hardcore track that sampled his quote and based the track on his little made-up, hypothetical rave riff:

Also, Rollins is completely wrong. Current 'EDM' is pretty shit, but 90s rave was the best thing to happen in the last 25 years.
>>63601928
what are you implying?
Rollins is being a hypocritical idiot talking all that shit after he did a shitty track with Goldie for the SPAWN soundtrack back in the day...

>>63602222
Dude this is like IDM like Venetian Snares or Apex Twin. Rollins is talking about EDM/Rave DJ shit type shit.
>>63601282
ad hominem, call it what you want
you're a genuine moron mate, sorry to break it to you
there's literally no reason to assume that getting a record deal isn't hard work for huge numbers of people who get them, or that because music is commercially successful it is artistically compromised
>>63602336
listen to the video again... he goes off on sampling and dj's in general.
>>63601346
Not him but that's not fucking 80's new order synthpop retard.
>>63599721
old man yells about things he doesn't understand. moving on.
