Is electronic/dance music an acquired taste?

Sounds like a plan.

Either way, it's such a hugely ignorant statement, that I'm going to stop using the internet for an entire week, just to let that concept have time to be replaced by something more important, like scratching my balls with a fucking toothbrush.

my take on it is something like Rave is obviously made by people on drugs for people on drugs

Your take would be completely misinformed.

based on the Kaos Theory comps anyway

If you enjoy generalizing an entire perception/population, that's on you. I'm just saying...

I'm just talking about Rave.....

Don't think the other sub-genres of electronica are like that at all.

Yeah Rave is a weird genre like that. Hardstyle has issues with drug use at the parties, but I know a LARGE amount of people hate those who use them and find it disrespectful. Goa and Psy Trance I think are even worse. But with Hardstyle I don't see why you would need drugs? Being at an event with thousands of people, listening to insanely loud and energetic music, and having lasers flying every which way is as crazy as it's gonna get.

YOU said Electronica, Il Duce said Rave, NOT all sub-genres of Electronica.

A bit like saying all hip hop fans are black, no?
