Exactly my point.  You just need less words to explain it :-).

Yes, agreed.  Although I think you'd have to agree that this is 
somehow different from people dancing to a non-stop 135 bpm beat and 
being high on pills for hours on end.  The trance/house thing has a 
kind of tribal primitive aspect to it which imo mostly lacks in "pop 
music".  And this _does_ make a difference, at least to me.
