What he said was probably the only thing that was really worthy in this thread, rest is just a waste of space.

I remember that era of Schutz very well, Fusing Love is a sick tune though, I've had that one for awhile now. 3:30 - 4:10 wicked.

Unfortunate a thread with such potential got turned into a pile of trash, the post quality on TA is severely lacking outside of regional / dj / production.

The MD forum has been shit for years now

That sounds like some classic east coast cynicism. Here in the idealistic west I still find diamonds of wisdom in the Music Discussion rough. The West Side worldview is why Death Row records could never be touched by Notorious BIG and his cronies. The West coast is largely lovers--the East coast, largely haters. But I digress.

It's probably my fault that discussion on this thread has been lacking: I sort of posted an excited rant after coming home from a great party without really posing a question or an interesting comment to be expanded upon. I just wanted to convey that Trance (the song I posted was more Progressive, but the party did feature a lot of genuine Trance) can still be (1) heard on the dance floor, (2) be successful in getting people moving--and creating the sensation of euphoria/goosebumps that we have all felt--even among a more mainstream crowd, and (3) considered not to be "dead" because of these facts.

I would argue that there is quite a large audience out there who would get into Trance if it received more opportunities to work its magic on a crowd. Instead I feel the modern club scene has been trending towards more cheep thrills House rather than clubs/DJs taking a risk on making an artistic statement that people can remember.

Unfortunately, I don't think there are many "hey, remember when Schulz was, like, actually good?" people on these boards. He's always been flamed for "McProg". I only recently came to the conclusion that he's not good for my tastes anymore. But the GDJBs from back around 2003... man!

I did enjoyed him a lot back in the day. Coldharbour, Miami '05 and even Ibiza '06 had some heavy rotation on my CD player. He just lost it now, sadly

Sidenote: I actually did have a pretty depressed friend who said listening to Northern Exposure 2 (west coast) always cheered him up...

so there, that was actually serious.

Ah, now that's a better post.

Er, unfortunately, you're also kind of preaching to the choir.

1. yes
2. d'uh
3. depends who you listen to. Most naysayers are talking about the Tiestin van Schulzenyonds of the trance sphere, and they're typically right. Those who dig deeper and unearth trance from the likes of psy and such, however, will completely agree with 1 & 2.

Trying to mention unicorns or lasers somewhere in your post does not constitute humour, you derivative fucktards.

That video wasn't actually that bad. I'm not sure I could put up with constant twinkle-toe stuff, though. The McProg stuff sounds good when you mix it up with other styles, but on its own you soon notice the repetition of sounds and ideas.

I find that it's good warmup music. It's good for about an hour, but like anything else, it gets boring. Transitioning into melodic trance is good.

Corrected it to LOWEST especially for you , or are you also using crappy headphones?

I'd add this track up there with "Fusing Love." A little more trancy and less proggy, but it gets me everytime, especially around the 3:13 mark. It was Tom Cloud's first release but I don't think he's matched it since.

absolute rubbish and so pretentious... associating the word "house" with "cheep thrills" is not only derogatory to the genre that pretty much started it all, also grammatically incorrect

Posted by MrJiveBoJingles on Dec-27-2008 23:52:

Maybe trance would experience a rebirth if better quality ecstasy started to circulate again?

Anyway fuck this shit i love trance and still listens to good ole trance comps and mixes now and then, mostly 90's and some newer A&B comps.

There too many minimal house fucktards devastating this forum giving measly comments and make fun of threadstarters starting threads with trance as subject.

Don't insult them, i think they prefer the term "circle jerk" and they actually know some good music (not incredible but good).

And besides, it is probable that tommorow They will bash the same music they are praising today (can someone find me a Deadmau5-OMG!!1 thread from 2006 please )

You don't have to be a "minimal house fucktard" to criticize the generic plastic schmaltz-trance that gets produced these days. I'm certainly not a huge fan of minimal techno / house.

"TOO MANY minimal house fucktards" is not only IMO.
