Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
Most goons are, at this point, in their late 20s, and early 30s. If you're anywhere below this lmao why are you here.

Now that you are here though your music taste is basically wrong and stupid and out of date. Young people view the 90s the same way we view the 80s: Awful and forgettable. If you have a Slipknot or Nirvana t-shirt laying around somewhere you should throw it away or burn it because your music taste is stupid and old and maybe you should go and watch some re-runs or Daria you loving idiot. You're basically listening to the musical equivalent of Abba.

There are 3 terms you need to know in 2016 when it comes to music: Deep House. Tropical House. Chillstep.

But Neutral Milk Hotel!

News Flash my dude, if you play your own instruments at this point you're borderline Dadrock.


The story goes that a long time ago Black People in America invented House Music, but given that American is a racist shithole they generally hated House music. In fairness, most House music is a random segment of someone going 'So you know, ugh, thats how it worked out.' repeated 100 times over a bassline. So it's understandable that people generally didn't like it, however, Europe didn't, and we've been working with it ever since.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRk_D1UMPsI
Germany were big fans of House, and helped to pioneer European House, and subsequently the stupid generalized idea of 'Eurobeat' Among Americans.


The rave scene was always huge in Europe, and our biggest contribution to this music scene has been entire genre's like 'Happy Hardcore', and 'Acid House'.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrLPz4QGRJ8
Basically, we own EDM now.


2012+ saw a huge revival in the EDM scene, not that it ever went away but previously it was dominated by bland R&B & Pop from the U.S. as rappers tried to cling to their dying music genre by attaching themselves to R&B. And don't argue for a fat minute that rap isn't dying. It is. Every time a someone like Pitbull tries to attach himself to David Guetta or Nicki Minaj, rap dies a little more. You can bring up poo poo like Run The Jewels all day long, it's going underground and rap will be better for it. No one loving cares about Rap anymore and thats a good thing for Rap as a whole.

You may be familiar with 2012's modern EDM revival, even if you don't know it. Tracks like 'Starships', and 'Don't you worry child' are satisfactory classified under 'Big Room House'. Basically anything you've been hearing in the club/on the radio the last 3 years.

Typical big room.


This is all fine though, and even though you may not be a big fan of Big Room, as I said earlier: Deep House, Chillstep, and TropicalHouse are all huge right now and they're arguably the 3 biggest genres to even bother with at the moment.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNwY8JCBm6o
A good example of somewhere between Deephouse & Big Room.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj5zT4t7S6c
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn9AQoI7mYU
A reasonably good example of Tropical House.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQVxUICOCWA
This whole set is prime Chillstep.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG25bpL0N-g
Dubstep still strong, and Flume is just owning poo poo left right & center right now.







The moral of the story is: Your music taste is probably profoundly outdated and poo poo right now. If you're go-to sounds are retards playing their own instruments then you're wrong about music and it's current direction. If you hate EDM, and its sub-genre's you're a big silly sausage and need to get your head in the game.

Try not to be a Dad when it comes to music, and learn to adapt.

Love you.

I like Sara Barielles, but I wish she made better music.

I like Ingrid Michaelson's music but wish she was more appealing as a human.

Last year's Carly Rae Jepsen album was mind-blowingly good.

Thanks OP, this really isn't quite my speed but it's nice having a post with a bunch of new information in it. I feel like if I wasn't constantly drunk and/or suicidal this music would resonate with me a lot better but as it is now I just kinda listen to noisecore and play old SNES games on an emulator on my jailbroken Wii and drink whiskey straight out the bottle while my girlfriend, and also I'm starting to suspect my cats, just look on in pitying disgust. I do like that Galatnis song though.

Since the OP is a certified retard™ here's what actual deep house actually sounds like, running the spectrum from sleepy time to good times

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDxJlW6cxRk (actual deep house)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIJ5XvZeb-k (better deep house)

Also deep house is pretty 2015, Future House is where it's at presently
