it seems really odd to me how people choose to categorise themselves so narrowly,
someone into electro not into techno?
where does juan fall into this for instance?
or do the electro fans just go urghh when they hear a 4 to the floor beat
and why ask for it to be removed?....im sure it cant cause them that much pain....

its not like your playing billy ray cyrus or some shit like that....

oh well...keep up the good work....
