Best songs for recruiting trance fans

What are your opinions of songs i could use to turn some techno novices onto good melodic and ambient trance.
Here are my pics

Silence - Delerium ft DJ Tiesto and Sarah
Damaged - Plummet ft nikki
The Journey - Lagoona
Escape - Kay Cee

I could really use your recomendations because i am developing quite a fanbase at my college with my trance mix CD's and club "field trips" i could use more original material to keep my stuff new. Thanks in advance

Gouryella - Gouryella

Silence - Delerium ft DJ Tiesto and Sarah is the greatest propaganda tune for trance. All my poor friends who I force to listen to my music agrees on that its the only tune they could imagine to get for them self. And it is great!

Yeah last week i used a cut of Gouryella for a presentation i did in Power point in school...and believe it or not....a punk-rocker came up to me and asked me the name of it after the presentation was over

Delirium - Silence has been loved by many in my family too

If they are rockers Dj Visage-Rock that sound
Band People- Gouryella-Gouryella (usually I bust out with the video): or System-Fut of the blue
been sucessful with Quicksilver-Ameno, Nylon-Dream, Coast2coast-home
Or just about any of the live sets I have on Vid.

see my recommendations page: http://members.home.net/sauli/music.htm
all the tracks I put on there are mainly geared towards newbies.

I say the cheezier, the better to start with... I LOVED the cheezy stuff at first, but once you get more into it you start to appreciate the more intelligent well produced tracks.

Anything by Antiloop is great for newbies, cuz of the short 3-4 minute song lengths that are closer to radio "pop" that listeners may be more familiar with. Antiloop makes GREAT "poppy" trance. Check out the following Antiloops tracks: Believe, In My Mind, Nowhere To Hide, Start Rockin', Trespasser, etc...

Also, don't limit yourself to trance... some people love the cheezy hard house type stuff too at first... Like Lock 'n Load - Blow ya Mind, Yomanda - Synth and Strings, JS16 - Stomp to my Beat, Mario Piu - Communication (Somebody Answer the phone), etc... I know they are pretty cheezy, but at least that'll get them into Electronic music and then they can branch out from there...

Also, some good tracks to convert hardcore rockers are the following cuz of the great use of electric guitars:

Sun Project - 380 Volts
Johann - Stranded (The Delta Remix)
The Delta - Travelling at the Speed of Thought

damn, I wish I knew more tracks like those three...

I'm sure these won't fail:

Yahel - Voyage
Westbam - Wizards of the sonic
Loop Control - Reflections
Allure - No more tears

Posted by fastmp3 on Oct-08-2001 02:00:

These are the best IMO :

Veracocha - Carte Blanche
Binary Finary - 2000 (yes 2000)
Mirco de Govia - Epic Monolith (this one is great to convince)
Gouryella - Gouryella
System F - Exhale

i know Exhale and Epic Monolith are new but right now they are IMo the best trance convincing tracks

and then if it works u can start with

DJ Tiesto - Urban Train
Fire & Ice - Souvenir de Chine
Orinoko - Islan (Thrilskeelers Remix)

most of my friends are rap fans so alot of them like something with what they'd call a "club edge" to them. i played them yves deryuter-just feel free(dumonde remix), the digital blonde-electra, the quest-c-sharp, and just about any dj mind-x. then i was able to play them a little more uplifting stuff like urban train, dj helios-orbit up, groovezone-i love the music

Well if you know of their current music tastes, just serve them remixes

Here are some, not exactly trance-y but excellent (and fairly recent) ones that spring to mind:

'N Sync - Pop (Deep Dish Club Mix)
Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Relax (Saeed & Palash Remix)
U2 - Elevation (Paul Van Dyk Remix)
Radiohead - Everything in its Right Place (Hybrid Remix)

sandstorm has got a lot of the rednecks around here somewhat interested, I dont seem to get as much "turn that crap off!" when I have that one playing. I try to expose them to songs they have heard before but didn't know they heard them, A lot of BT songs have been in the background of commercials and TV shows, I sit them in front of MTV when they have some show on and identify the songs they are playing in the background. Sometimes I take a different approach by introducing them to some other genres that they somewhat recognise and gradually play more trancey stuff for them, starting with some basement jaxx and then some of the stuff from the MOS ibiza 2001 compilation CD1 then fatboy slim and daft punk stuff(they recognise some of that) then I throw the good stuff at em.

Posted by Thierry on Oct-09-2001 02:24:

Well I think Gouryella - Walhalla is a good one for that. Also System F - Out of the Blue, CRW - I Feel Love (Dumonde Remix) and any Binary Finary. and can't forget FOR AN ANGEL!!!

Posted by Sarcoman on Oct-09-2001 02:40:

Suggestions....

Firewall - Reflections
Juno Reactor - Pistolero (Man with no name remix)
Astral Projection - Anything is possible
Vaiio - Rapture
Fire and Ice - Souvenir de Chine
Santos - Camels (Saints and Sinners mix)
Flutlicht - Icarus
The Kemists - What Exactly is Special K
Legend B - Lost in Love (Baby Doc mix)
Miss Shiva - Dreams
Cyclone - Salobre
The Space Brothers - Everywhere I Go (Push Trancendental Mix)

Wanna recruit trance lovers hit them with the best. I find that most ppl who are listening to trance like vocal trax better but this is not always true. Anyway here's a list i'd play :

Paul van Dyk - For an Angel
Armin - Communication (Vincent de Moor Remix)
Bedrock - Heavens Scent
Rank 1 - Airwave
Delerium - Silence (Tiesto Remix)
Thrillseeker - Synaestheasia (Vocal Mix) <- The en Motion is better
Rising Star - Touch Me

Hmmm could name a 100 more but if they don't like this stuff then they probably won't enjoy good trance music.

Posted by lMIlk on Oct-09-2001 08:01:

rnk 1-airwave
blank and jones-cream
sys F-Exhale, out of the blue.

Well, alot of people here don't know much about trance music. But it seems that everyone liked ATB - 9Pm till I come. Personally I think it sucks..... What started me listening to trance is Robert Miles - Children and System F - Out of the Blue and everything by Chicane.....especially Saltwater and oh ya Orbital - Halcyon On & On
