Ok. well then based off of your narrow definitions of how a genre is dead that has been influenced by your also narrow perception of the scene and your disconnect from mainstream culture, then yes, house and trance are "dead".

No offense dude, but coming from someone that doesn't know what house even is, that doesn't hold water. Post some real house video links, none of that horrible scorched porch turd vids, then we can get into it.
And no, my definition (the chart) is broad, not narrow, that's the point. Sure, lines are gray, but if you squint your eyes they become black and white. Your trying to ignore the parent label's definition. Your point is house might live on thru some God forsaken cross mutation with other genres but at some point it's no longer house. If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck then it's probably a duck. But If the duck evolves into a flying pig with super sharp talons then it's not a duck any more.
Your saying house has lived on through it's evil mutated test tube baby step-children, I'm saying show me the duck without talons or a snout.
