Although I enjoyed the samples you provided I doubt that I would purchase any of this genre's music. I've never been a big fan of any electronic dance music, although I understand its attraction to those that frequent dance clubs or as background music in movies, trendy restaurants, etc.
I will declare that I can very much appreciate the compositional talent involved. If a notable artists gets a portion of the door/gate at a club or a festival of some sort, more power to them. I don't think I'll ever understand the desire for fans of the music to attend 'concerts' to watch someone push play on a computer and then play sound engineer without some significant visual interpretation.

Fair enough, cato123.

I too, attempt to at least
appreciate what the artist was attempting to convey in a certain piece of music that I might not necessarily enjoy at first, or purchase. kudos to you

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
