-- Trance Is Dead?

Trance will never die....Spoken by the Trance man himself 'TIESTO'. You have to see what the major players in the industry are playing and producing as they have control over what we hear in the times to come. That is the reality unfortunately. Whether or not Australian people have an opinion as to whether or not a particular genre or style of music is more popular than the next can sometimes be irrelevant. It's the big boys that determine the next sound and we have to accept that as it is.
I take trance as one unbelievably broad genre. It can be prog, dark, uplifting, melodic, deep, anything! Depends now on what you class as 'real' prog without the trance element. For me I don't care all I know is that trance is getting bigger and better than ever before and clubs specialising specifically in the progressive house sound are slowly starting to become scarce. Guess you need to see what's right before you before you can jump ahead and say one things better than the other.
I'm luvin it all the way to Dutch Dimension and Trance Energy! 
I guess we all have opinions, well this is mine anyway. (no offense intended)

Everything has it's place in the sun.
Dead? I think not.
I too am a little confused here.
Up to about a year ago the best prog nights were at the big venues with 1000 odd people there...
Now those nights no longer exist..
..and I come from from Melbourne the 'home of prog' in Australia...
Yeah prog is back...if your talking about prog that goes at about 136-140 bpm...kinda stuff Oakenfold, Fontaine etc used to PLay...stuff that includes the best of all genres (with a lot of trance)..with melody.

Funny how people have been asking this question about trance since it beginnings in the early nineties, the answer is always the same, and they'll probbably still be asking it in another 10 years...

ok lets cut the crap here and now!!! The people that love prog will say that it is only beginning to peak now and its awesome (which it is), the people who love trance will say its bouncing back and its here to stay (which it is) and both sides will bag the other.
I say QUIT IT!! I love both styles for different reasons, and just cause you dont like that style doesnt mean its boring or old or dead or responsible for the death of the scene.... 
Just shut the fuck up and let the people who enjoy their style love it and keep your mouth shut on topics which you dont have an unbiased opinion on....
Long live trance and prog!!

nice dummy spit! 
however, it doesnt alter the facts based on years of involvement in the dance scene. If you dont want to hear people's opinions, dont start a stupid thread!

| Originally posted by Michael Dude, You hit the nail on the fucking head. Prog is the same monotonous shit its always been. It peaked about 3 years ago and went so deep and dark it turned everyone off. It's not exactly party music either. If I go out clubbing I want to listen to good uplifting party tunes not a bunch of chin stroking dickheads all trying to go darker than the previous dj. |
