I guess if there are people wanting to talk about politics, there may be a new category opened. the people who dont want to see may not enter. but the ones who want to debate can go ahead. personally i dont think the psychedelic trance scene is united. in samothraki when the police was arresting people on the last day, for the fourth time, there were 10 people protesting against the police. wheres the other 7990. its sad.

Everything on the guidelines was written for a specific reason, and based almost souly on experience.
Experience teaches us that when people start arguing about politics and religion, they start to pay more attention to difference between them rather than the things that unite them.
When people pay attention the things that unite them, they can understand each other much better than people who argue and want to win the argument.
Isratrance is already divided enough. Most people here belong to either "full on" or "progressive". If we start arguing about politics as well the forum will die.
I hope I made this clear

i think a lot of people are missing the rather interesting and valid question originally raised
he wasnt saying why arent we talking about the war/politics in this forum? why dont we talk about that?
he's asking , why is it Israeli trance artists do not talk about this?
i think its an interesting question which neednt lead to actual discussion of the war/politics themselves. music and politics have often overlapped, all the way from ancient folk music right through to asian dub foundation. its very common to see musicians using their platform of "fame" (or something close to it) to popularise "issues" or take a stance on something.... so, given that there is such a massive "issue" in isreal, and so many artists from there, it does in fact seem odd that nobody is making this connection.
so i think its interesting to wonder why they avoid it... perhaps like darksoho says they just think its not their war, they dont give a shit... perhaps they feel the spirit of peace/unity within the music itself says enough without explicitly discussing it in interviews... perhaps they realise that when musicians try and use their position to make pronouncements they more often than not end up making themselves look stupid by making simplistic soundbites about extremely complex situations that cant be dealt with in a lyric ...
oh well dont want to stoke anything

Probably, because it wouldn't make a difference, as it never has before, there are more and more wars and no musician would change that. |
