Blame it on Armin and his "classics" from 250

Armins definition of classic - uplifting epic dutch trance

It's just that every other tune spun more than three times is somehow mentioned here.

hey some have been played 4 or 5

A lot of "our time" classics have been already quoted but:

Nathan Fake - The Sky Was Pink (James Holden Remix)
Yoshimoto - Du What U Du
Petter - These Days
Michael Burns - The Ambience
The MFA - The Difference It Makes

Mode Hookers - Breathe
Way Out West - Killa
Hammer & Bennett - Language
Ridgewalker feat El - Find (Andy Moor mix)
Filterheadz - Yimanya
Alt+F4 - Alt+F4

Could theese tunes maybe be future classics? I'm just guessing

Midway - Inca

Guys please read the first post again. He said what would you consider classics of today's times, not tracks that are already classics. You keep mentioning tracks from the 90's and early 00's which is not really current day trance. Please restrain yourself to music from 2002 to present. Why 2002 you ask? Because 1992-2001 has already been covered in this big thread: http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...15&pagenumber=1

Tiesto - In My Memory
Way Out West - Mindcircus
Libra - Calling Your Name
Paul Van Dyk - Avenue
Agnelli & Nelson - Holding Onto Nothing (Maybe)
Thrillseekers - Synethesia
Aurora - I Can Hear You Calling
Armin Van Burren - Burned With Desire
Whiteroom - Whiteroom
Cordory - Sweetest Dreams (Maybe)
Delerium - Silence
Rank1 - Airwave

I'm also trying to avoid all of the 'classic' 'classics' from the late 1990's - you know the ones!!

Ok ... perhaps the majority puts old musics because today do not have any classic as of before ... particularly I like the Hydroid tracks because I like very melodic and dreaming ... his tracks are classics to Me ... more the remaining portion nothing ... only some tracks but far away to consider classic when compared to old stuff ... forgot to mention Tiesto - Forever Today this is a classic tune for Me too ... when it is discussion the musics of today to much discord but when is said in old classics much people agree.

yeah, the ones, like Airwave, Calling Your Name and Silence?

I think Voice of Cod - Just a Ride will last. Its a bit clinical and I can hear reFX Vanguard all over it...but the music, the bill hicks samples and the message fit together perfectly. And its not just a metaphor for a trip. I would certainly look back on it in 5 years time and say, yea that was one of the goodun's from 2005.

From 2004: Nexus 6 - Silicon Sound (Protoculture Remix) is going to last. IT has an auteur kind of quality to it and it has all of Protoculture's signiture sounds and THAT guitar...

Originally posted by queen_vee OMG GENIUS!!! Seriously, some of you people need to learn to read. Perhaps define in your little heads 'consider', 'classics' and 'past couple of years' before putting in your entirely irrelevant suggestions such as Saltwater/Age of Love/Cafe Del Mar. A track that doesn't lift the MAJORITY OF THE CROWD could barely be considered a classic, could it?? It doesn't matter if the majority of the crowd didn't know what trance was when the track was made, it has to ignite something in them even the first time they hear it (I daresay the majority of you didn't hear Cafe Del Mar for the first time in 1993) So, what tracks of today/past couple of years will still be getting dug out of crates or remixed in 2016 with a new audience also falling in love with them? The answer may well be 'nothing' as good trance seems to be defined into: a) the more subtle yet highly distinctive and original tracks (Age of Love, Cafe Del Mar) and; b) the highly obvious tracks that do actually have exceptional vocals and/or melody that a crowd identifies from the first note (Silence, Airwave) and trance now is cliche of formulaic synths or vocals creating disposable tracks that new generations may not identify with if those tracks are not getting shoved in their faces weekly (daily?!) via ASOT etc. ANYWAYS, SAYING CAFE DEL MAR IS A POTENTIAL 'FUTURE' CLASSIC IS RETARDED

Thanks man, at least someone gets me!

Yeah someone mentioned:
Ridgewalker feat El - Find (Andy Moor mix)
Filterheadz - Yimanya

I could definatly agree with that

when a songs is, say 3-4 years old, I think it could be called a classic.. solarcoaster, speak in sympathy, summer calling, and nothing (93 returning mix) for example..

also, i totally agree that ridgewalkers -find (andy moor remix) and tilt -the world doesn't know will be classics in the future..

some other suggestions:
Scott Bond vs. Solar Stone -3rd Earth (Marco V Remix)
Deepsky -talk like a stranger (markus schulz coldharbour mix)
Probspot -Foreplay
Whirlpool -Under The Sun (All mixes)

and perhaps (?):
Mike Foyle pres. Statica -Space Guitar
Mark Otten -So Serene
Andy Moor -Halcyon
AR52 -Hibernation

Karen Overton - Your Loving Arms
Reflekt - Need To Feel Loved
Luminary - Amsterdam
Jonas Steur - Castamara/Silent Waves
...

Oh and I forgot:

Giuseppe Ottaviani - Linking People

Of the commercial trance tracks that came out in 2006 so far, I think airbase - escape is the only one I'll remember.

how old are we talking here? most of these songs i wouldn't even consider classics.. i'm thinking more along the lines of like, 1998 and greece 2000. i dunno.

seems like you are mentioning every other random tune armin plays on ASOT. I've listened to ASOT since day one i 2001 (although I very rarely listen nowadays) and I can guarantee you that not many of the most played tunes is rememberd as classics today.

Being played alot doesn't automaticly mean its a classic.

That's a remake of a real classic.

C�mon, I just tried to make a prediction, didn�t want to mention "random tunes from ASOT". Who knows? Maybe they will be classics, maybe they won�t, that�s what is this thread about. Now stop bitching or post some tunes instead..

It's an old saying, essentially: "Look at the pot calling the kettle black", but it's usually abbreviated to "Pot. Kettle. Black" or even "Pot. Kettle". It means someone is being a hypocrite.
