I think it's important to distinguish between a scene being played out and certain types of music. The whole warehouse/electronica/glowstick/xtc thing was popular for about 8 or 9 years, but trendy in like '99. Now, you see a place like that and immediately think it's old school. Yet if I heard a number of those tracks (Oakenfold, Digweed, Sasha all included) I would consider them classics, not played out or "old".
All 3 of those guys moved towards a more pop style. That's why I say they were played out. Twilo was a warehouse essentially with really cool music and it wasn't filled with gross ravers and their jnco jeans. But the problem was that it was a scene filled with a lot of young people who didn't appreciate it and weren't there for that long. A lot of them just wanted loud music and a dark warehouse and that's it. I think sasha and digweed played there once a month or twice, I can't remember. The scene got old because the people wore on your nerves and the music got played out because it was meant to appeal to the masses and not be anything new.
