Somehow a musical artform that devoted itself to hypnotic rhythms and spacey soundscapes became, inside of a decade, a mass produced assembly line McProduct for middle class Europeans (pejoratively known as Trancecrackers because they're white. >It's important to first explain the horrible template that ruined Trance music. You forgot to quote the "best" bit a few paragraphs later : There’s also server hosted by /r/technoproduction, but it was a bit of a hot mess of self promotion.
