I need to move to the Netherlands. Hey, will a sexy TA let me move in with her? I can't pay rent in cash, but I'll offer you sexual favors instead .

Trance was very popular in the electronic scene a few years back, but unfortunately right now it's relatively dead. Tons and tons of house nights locally, but not a single trance night, aside from what me and a buddy are playing at one of the local afterhours clubs.

On a positive note though, we've had a fairly steady stream of headliners coming through my hometown this year, so things might be looking up. It's all about exposing people to the music...

i would say trance is fairly well established in the uk. I would also say that it is fairly underground (not much radio coverage on events etc), but if you know where to look its easy to find. There are quite a few clubs/nights dedicated to it too. Not a touch compared to the dutch and germans though

dunno about that. 93.7 yeah well they are dance/disco oriented so you can hear a few trance tunes in their playlist. Others just don't cut it for me. KISS108 has turned into a hip hop station

Hello everybody !!

I would like to know how is establish Trance music in your country?

So, i'll start !
In France there is almost none club which diffuse only Trance music
And there is only one national radio (not small regional radio) which diffuse Trance: ContactFM
But it doesn't diffuse real Trance

So, in France Trance is not implanted it still perceived like "BOOM BOOM" music !!! But I think it's because people don't know Trance music

I wish it will progress in the future! And I think that Benassi Bros songs (like illusion or rumenian which tends to Trance)will bring closer people to Trance music. Thx for your answers

Well established in this household at least!

No ......unless you're really into psy/goa. True, we've had PVD, Sasha, Judge Jules and Lee Burridge come down here over the last year and a half, but all those shows were used as 'brand promotion' by bacardi and smirnoff - passes were given out to 'select' groups of people and were not put on sale for the general public (WTF!!???). The only exception was the PVD show, where tix were sold to anyone who wanted to buy them. I didn't get to see Burridge, but I saw the other shows and considered them sub-standard compared to what these guys should be putting out. I guess they were 'dumbing down' for the Indian audience - 99% of whom were seeing these guys for the first time - and collecting an easy paycheck in the process. I guess I'm lucky that I got to live in L.A. for quite a while, and get to go back every now and them, otherwise I wouldn't have a clue either. There is a huge potential for selling trance over here - I just hope event promoters and record companies over here get a clue and start goin' about it the right way.

In greece were i come from techno(all forms from detroit to housey to bangin) and psy-trance are very well established for a few years now. The "cool dance music" though is progressive all the way and djs like diggers and holden are worshiped by many as gods. Armin and ferry though are copletely uknowns so i wouldn't say the same thing for the uplifting kind. People here must have taste than!
