trance has never been as good as now IMO
you have to wait until summer to make a fair judgement...of course all of the best stuff doesn't start getting released and played out until summer...

YOU ARE RIGHT MAN!
JULY-AUGUST are full of surprises!!

| Originally posted by Cobalt Wow! What a fine tune. Thanks for the reference. I really like a couple of the IDs in your sig, too. |
Most of the good material doesn't even start to surface until May or so, around the time when all the parties are starting. You'll see, it will pick up.
Late Fall/Winter/Early Spring is a downtime for the scene because most of the DJs and producers are making new material.

HAH!
I feel your pain...Trance IMHO, hasn't produced any chart toppers for me at all this year 
I've been listening to a lot of sets from 99-2000 lately (for the past 2 months), since we're lacking any quality productions.

Whenever I don't like something I look at it as my responsibility to change it. If you really want a quality track, learn some production software and produce the 2004 phenomenon, if you don't wanna put in the effort, learn to like what's out there.

isn't there still snow on the ground in large parts of the northern hemisphere? Why would artists waste their efforts by releasing their good works when people are not out and partying? come april/may as the summers big hits are starting their promotion drives there will be more and more good stuff come out.
I find it funny how many people spend a fortune on crap music at times like this and then whinge how they have no money. If it's not good don't buy it, and wait for something worth the money.
i seem to remember it being quiet this time last year. i reckon some of the better tunes that should have been out in jan and feb have been held back for the Miami Winter Music Conference.
ill reckon there will be a lot of new stuff being played there
Try listening to the Adam Sheridan Essential Mix 
dudez......i no most of the tracks u guys suggested....but as i was saying most of those good tracks ***are from 2003****.....NOT 2004 which realy bug me!..... i was really frustrated that for 3 monthes.....there hv only been very few good tracks made, well in my opinion, less than 5..
and yeah. i dont only mix uplifting trance, i mix almost all styles....some breaks, tech-trance, hard-trance, progressive trance, hard house, techno, and etc.....
so im not the kind that only focus on uplifting trance..
