Do you guys know the feeling that you don't have a lot of friends that are into electronic music? I have more than enough friends in general, but I'm always disappointed that the majority aren't into electronic music. Most of the time I can find a few friends that are willing to join, but I'm a little bit disappointed most don't like it.

Most of them would rather sit at the bar all the time, which I also enjoy but occasionally.

That's my life! I have one friend who is *kind of* into electronic music, but she just prefers the more accessible stuff like Duke Dumont and whatnot. I have no friends who I can talk proper house or techno with, and it makes going out pretty annoying. The most annoying thing is, being gay, all of my friends only ever want to frequent popular gay bars/clubs. It is incredibly difficult to pretend to enjoy dancing to the latest Britney/Rihanna boombaton mashup. Most of the time I end up leaving by myself and going elsewhere for a bit. I meet great people every time I go to a club night, but by the time they sober up they stop talking.

Meh.

It used to be me and two others but for the last 3 years it expanded massively as I met up with some people on another music forum I go on and we've all become great friends.
Been to some sick partys and countrys because of it.
Infact we are right at the moment planning to go to Sub Fms 10th anniversary in Amsterdam in May.

My gf and her sister arnt much into "my" stuff but they come to the nights and have fun, a few others are well into their garage and more pop-house.

Will give this a listen on my commute!

And like-wise. I've been meaning to jump over the pond, see what you Londoners are all about. Last time I was there I was 12, I think, so I think it's time for a return visit.

Yeah man, whenever you do find the time I will be sure to show you around!

Set your expectations to super low, like Silence is 0 this is about a 1 1/2 on the good scale

Yeah I definitely do not have this problem. The majority of my friends are into electronic music, and my problem is having to turn down invitations to go to shows since I get invited to at least one every week. Not a bad problem to have really.

Most of my friends like house and trap/stuff with hip hopish beats when I play it in the car. Main response is "where are the words?" Depending on the track of course

Ughhhhhh

Hey guys. So I hate barging into a community thread like this, but I've been in love with this track for a while now and wanted to post it here:

Taishi - The Survivor

I'm not even sure what (sub)genre it'd fall into, or if it'd even be to the tastes of a lot of the thread, but I just wanted to share it.

Could someone elaborate to me what this whole Community thing is and how it differs from just having a thread that people contribute in?

Well, I believe threads that start becoming a little sub community get moved to the community selection. Normal off-topic is more for news in threads in general that die (most of the time) pretty quickly.

Pfff, that's nothing compared to Drum and Bass. That's more niche. Electronic music is rather common in Berlin so a lot of people i know like to dance to it but dnb? Hell no. 3 of 4 times i have to go alone. I don't mind since i wanna see the DJs and are not really a talker in clubs and only dance all the time but still. Hell, i'm even talking to myself in the GAF DNB topic :)

Luckily my close music friend is all about that niche dnb. I've been considering launching a dnb/breakbeat broken rhythm thread for over two years now but I'm not sure I could stand a thread that could potentially welcome a bunch of cheesy dnb which seems to be most people's exposure anymore.

Hey, try being a grime fan in the US. The odds of meeting anyone that's even heard of it are slim to none.
