lol, ta.

There's a few reasons why I think trance turned sour in 2005/06:

-Paul Van Dyk dethroning Tiesto in 2005. Despite his haters, I think Tiesto in his prime kept trance alive.
-Andy Bury leaving Solar Stone in 2006
-Mark Spoon's death in Jan. '06
-Hard trance falling off after 2005. No one cared about Dumonde's last few tracks in 2006 and '07.
-A spawn of Noob producers surfaced and started churning out tracks like no one's business.

That was a decent YouTube educational broadcast. Lots of relevant music discussion info. Never was interested in the technical aspects of trance. Don't get me wrong but what exactly is there worth dicussing if not the love? I got my start with trance in '01. Well technically it must have been euro house. I speak of Mauro picotto system f Vincent de moor. Just discovered humates "spacetribe" the other day. Guess I am merely a casual. Listen
er.sorry

so far the drunk guy makes the most sense.

except the 97-2005 range. its all about 93-96.

all the good/suitable trance melodies/ideas must have run out sometime around there :/

It's simple it became too easy to produce. Everyone does it half the people at my gym think they can and it bacame quantity over quality and now its derp berlin - in my anus (emma hewitts vocals) and it sells. And sadly the stuff all the masters used to do has turned into one big popularity contest. I dont go out anywhere as i hate it all. Its just gone to shit and sold out big time and i miss the banging stuff of times gone by

I'll take 90's/00 trance over the bull***t that gets cranked out these days.

Why do these threads keep popping up?

If you want to hear classic sounding trance, why not make it yourself and seek out others who are doing the same thing?

"trance 2.0" was born out of people trying to make 'classic trance' themselves... don't encourage a new wave of shite!

lol, I'm tryin'. But it seems that everyone on here is obsessed with prog house, or early 90's trance, and since I still hadn't learned to tie my own shoes in the early 90's, let alone have any concept that music could be made with computers, I don't have all that many people to identify with here. :P

I've been working at keeping the kind of sound I love alive, but in a scene dominated by "Trance 2.0," dubstep, and a horrifying lack of funds to do any REAL promotion, it's slow going.

Not that I'm complaining, though. I like a challenge.

Originally posted by pointPi At this point, I don't really care anymore. Even after listening to what the old school crusaders have had to say, I'm still more attracted to the newer sounds. It might be might my lack of attention span. I'm still waiting for the epic trance equivalent of say Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails or The Roots.

Took me quite a while to appreciate the older stuff myself. When I finally got it I never wanted to go back. Even outside of trance never rule something you might eventually like out; three years ago I thought Steve Roach was the most boring music ever and today hes probably my most listened to artist.

I love you for making this post...

I hate trance tunes nowadays. They have a lot of dubstep influence. When I want trance, I want trance. Not that dubstep crap. HOW THE HELL CAN I NOD MY HEAD TO THAT?

Don't get me wrong, dubstep is okay, but not when I'm in a trance mood.

But seriously, 90's trance is so beautiful.
