Here in Dallas there's about 5 record shops I can go to for proper tunes. Any big city in England will have way more than that.
As for if the music is accepted. It is accepted by a small majority. Those who love it, really really love it. It's still quite an underground scene over here, even though it's been around for over 10 years now. In Dallas for instance, there are about 3 or 4 clubs that do this sort of thing, and they are places where you can 'ave it' all night and have a really good time. Most people over here are into rap and r&b, so dance music such as trance and techno are not in the spotlight, which is fine by me. I dont want a bunch of social eletist types in my clubs anyways. |
Thanks for answering that, it's nice that it's still largely quite underground then
If you fancy making a shitload of money, I've heard there are a lot of Roland TB-303's (little silver box used to make acid house music) in the States (not that much use for areas I know) but a guy I know who I buy/sell studio equipment with, often has people selling him 303's from the US, and he buys them for silly prices, like $100 or less, then sells them over here for (depending on the condition) £800+ ($1465!)
Err, best let them get back on topic now heh
