Hard or Soft?
The genre of "Trance" is so mixed that sometimes even the pro's can get confused. To me trance is spit up into the soft/chill type tunes, the uplifting/dream genre and the hard style.
I like all of these styles save the too heavy stuff, but it depends on the mood i'm in. It's starting to piss me off as I'm trying to get a style to spin but I can't choose one, they are all so good.
So basicaly, what do you prefer when you go out to a club/rave/party, hard/soft or dream?
i prefer uplifting/dream. the hard suff is garbage but thats just imo.
I like it all!
I would prob start with 'progressive' trance, then go into the 'uplifting' and then into hard trance. Thats prob what I would like to hear, a bit of everything. I don't think I would like a whole night of just progressive, too boring! I need power!!!
Well at clubs i definately prefer to hear something with a bit of eneergy in it, which is usually the hard stuff. I would go nuts seeing dj scot project, dumonde or cosmic gate. I really enjoyed Fergie's set at TT which was a bit harder.
At home i spose i love listening to the uplifting/epic/dream style trance... anything that cheers you up i spose.
hard trance with the exception of dumonde is cack....prog and uplifting trance is da stuff
Yeah def prog through to uplifting.
I went to submission on sat night in canberra and the shit that j.jack and pee wee palmed off as trance was just noise. I would have described most of their sets as sirens and alarms, with no soul in sight. It bordered on painful after a while and if they had noticed the dance floor they would have realised this as well.
i cant beleive you didnt take tomatoes to throw at them!

tomatoes?
Well we didn't take tomatoes but we did toy with kraft singles to throw around. They would have been appropriate!
i like epic/uplifting stuff. Though i must admit i have a huge cravin for hard trance
i love hearin banging tunes like:
Hennes & Cold - The Second Trip (Scot Project remix)
4-Clubbers - Children (Junkfood Junkies Vs Future Breeze remix) Scot Project - Overdrive
Why can't we all just appreciate that people will have different tastes and that our tastes vary from one moment to the next
Sometimes i want to hear chilled out trance, sometimes progressive and then at times i want to hear some bangin' choons to get me going.
it's all good

A whole night of progressive would do me just fine.
Start off with that deep, chunky prog-house, move onto the deeper more progressive stuff towards the middle, then end off with some Max-Graham-esque epic shite.
Sounds good to me. 
nah...i cant handle that stuff anymore...even though i do like prog..the only dj who can really do it for me is sasha...
ive lost hope in seaman after seeing him in march...but digweed is back on track
as for "hard trance"..is it even trance? can we just call it hard nrg or hard house!!!!??? 
I love all trance. I mean I love most dance music.
House, Trance, DnB, Breaks, Techno, Some hardcore (not happy hardcore cheesy shit).
But trance is the best! I love al styles, Uplifting, Chill, Prog
I always go through phases. I just went through a big Uplifting phase listening to all my sets like Ferry and Tiesto and Dumonde.
Now I'm in a progressive trance mood. Listening to all my old Oakey stuff like
The Em World Tour
Ibiza
China
Beunos Aires
Absolutely magical. If you ask me I reckon alot of prog is more emotional than uplifting cause uplifting you go psyco and feel mad but with prog you feel like just nice and sad but happy at the same time. It's realy ggoooooooooooodddddddd!! I need more prog sets! Nice how it never peaks! I love it!
But give me any trance and I'm more than happy!
I generally like all styles of trance, but I have to be in the right mood to enjoy a certain style. Recently I've been listening to more relaxing and progressive stuff...especially GU013, GU007, GU016 and Oakenfold live at Space, Ibiza. At the moment I can't stand the hard stuff.
If I was at a club I'd want to hear progressive and uplifting.

haha stipsy
i reckon eh .. when u hear track like Dirt Devils - The Drill or Alphazone - Stay ur thinking "people think this is trance rofl"

My perfect music on a night out would be progressive through to uplifting with a few CAREFULLY selected nrg and techno tracks for a bit of energy in the night... I can't stand it when it's the same style all night. The DJ line up would include Sean Quinn, Will E Tell, Master Kaos, and Kat (she played a sick set at ZOS one night a while ago).
Ah well... I can only dream...
PS: It'd be a damn expensive night with a line up like that!!!
