Dance music creative? What's creative about a computer generated mindless beat with a constantly returning and repeating hook in B-flat and lyrics that are nothing more than the title of the song?

People who like that have little self awareness, no creativity, agressive, slightly anti-social and are generally dumb-asses. And most rap music isn't that much different. (Just my humble opinion)

And why isn't rock n' roll added in that list of genres?

It's not really humble though is it? Or based in anything factual.

Do you geniuinely think ALL music that falls under the "dance" banner deserves that review? Have you heard anything other than what appears in the top ten?

Stricktly speaking, probably 80% of all music could be described as dance music. Swing, rock n' roll, country, hip hop, techno, mariachi, samba, traditionals, folk etc. etc.

I think it's fair to assume that dance music in this particular case is the music played at clubs.

Sorry, I can be a bit of a hard-ass sometimes.

Then we ge onto what clubs you go to  :P

Even taking purely about electronic music made by DJs with the intention of being played in clubs, you'd be a bit of an arse saying Aphex Twin, Shpongle, Ott, Autechre, Younger Brother, The Orb etc haven't ever done anything creative.
