For what it's worth, I have a similar position
with respect to DnB and 2-step. When I first
heard good DnB, I was blown away, but they don't
make DnB like they used to. :( I'm a little
heart-broken, because it has so much potential
I'm sure I could get to like
2-step as a genre more if the stuff being made
were more soulful. It's pretty much the same
position as yours. I haven't been moved by
2-step as much as the hype made me think I would.
But whatever... If 2-step makes some people happy,
that's wonderful. I stopped criticizing people's
taste in music, because... people can have such
wildly different tastes. For example, I'm not a
fan of country/western, but I've seen people
sincerely get into it, and this is really the
style that makes them move their bodies. I can't
criticize it like I might have in the past, anymore.
As puzzled as I am by this phenomenon, I can't
really say anything bad if music is making people happy.
-- my 2 cents.
