Delusion

Someone tell the kids that turning every piece of music known into House doesn't automatically make it cool.

It does seem like there are more and more copies, remakes, of things and less original ideas. I just saw somewhere that Oswald Spengler in the Decline of Western Civilization wrote that just before great empires like the Roman and Greek ones fell, there was a period where no new great works of art were produced and it was just recycling of old ideas.

No telling me that this is no testimony of "a great culture".
With Trance I also don't like it when they started to recycle classical pop songs or songs which were popular at that time period. Especially the short post-2000 period where they started to discover the 80s again and spinned them around.
I hate the 80s, they weren't beautiful and the songs already then in the 90s were so overplayed in the radio you didn't want to hear them anymore.
The only exceptions I could mark from this are the two remixes of Sunscreem's "Exodus" (http://www.discogs.com/Sunscreem-Exodus/release/1580934), for the first thing said, and Pulsedriver's version of "Cambodia" (http://www.discogs.com/Pulsedriver-Cambodia-Recycle/master/77069), for the second thing said.
