        If you dont like it, you dont like it. I wouldnt try and force yourself to get into something you find boring etc.
        Personally i find most electronic music not repetitive at all, no more than rock music (in most cases), and i dont know where people get that idea from.
        (Strangely, most people i know who arent into dance music like drum n bass but no other dance music, but i find it easily one of the more repetitive genres.(still love it though))
        I guess it could be because changes in electronic music seem a lot more gradual than the changes in rock music.
        But it could be the type of music you’re listening to, do you know what type of dance music you’re listening to?

          I think all it is, is getting used to a certain style of music. When your first start listerning to a new stly of music alot of the time it DOES all sound the same. But once you become accustomed to a style you start being able to pick out alot of differences.
          Since i was young i have been deeply into music (i’ve played around 4-5 instruments i think!) since i was just a little nipper. And it’s only in the last year or so i have got into dance.
          But i think i have become most involved with this style and think decks are my definate instrument of choice(if your willing to call them an instrument!).
          Dont force yourself to like it, it will force you!

              Find a compilation which is not stuck in one style or try listening to pv radio, find a Dj you like and download their radio sets from the archive for listening to on E.:groucho:

              Radio is live most nights here and the rest of the time it is playing archive loops so you should find something you like :weee:

              Mp3s of radio shows and others are found here

              http://www.partyvibe.com/vbulletin/downloads.php

              I can recommend all the PV radio shows – have and do listen to them all when time allows raaaraaaraaa[and if you come in to the chat while they are on you will find folks you can to chat too and maybe get recommendations off of :wink:]

                Like Kensaken said, maybe you just don’t like it.

                Something that is important with dance music is that you really do have to listen to the more subtle stuff like techno and house. I don’t mean just hear it woth your ears I’m talking about getting your brain to follow that rhythm and pick up on the changes that help to push the track along and build it up.

                Sometimes little changes can change the dynamic of a tune but if you are listening to it like it’s background music then all you will hear is the boom boom boom boom.

                Good luck with it. 😉

                    ^ Yeah, for some kinds of music (tekno especially) you really need to hear it on a big system. 😉

                                    Yea Astral Projection are awesome,For psy id recommend these for starters:
                                    Hallucinogen
                                    GMS
                                    Talamasca
                                    Cosmosis
                                    Astrix
                                    Son Kite
                                    Juno Reactor
                                    etc
                                    But there are loads more.

                                    Yea Ishkurs guide is wicked, It helped get me into loads of types of music i didnt know before.

                                    To be fair, the more you listen to a genre the more it grows on you. Gabber sounded like distorted noise to me at first, but after hearing it pounding from my bros room for weeks on end i absolutely love it now.
                                    Just keep exploring and you’ll find something you like.
