Maybe not, but you could argue that not being well known makes it not a classic. Well, depends how you define classic really.

Just shut up. Please.

Some songs that can be thought as classics in several years from now are

holden & thompson - nothing (93 returning mix)
andain - beautiful things

They are songs that basically changed the direction a bit on trance, which imo counts as groundbreaking. After these songs were made, a lot of trance producers went after that sort of trance music and started making that sort.

dogzilla - without you

Andain-Beautiful things a classic?!?Well yeah it could be...depends on how you use the word "classic" though. I mean if it's for an old tune that is still being played a lot, dj sammy-boys of summer owns every other tiesto/ASOT euro-trashy tune(including "ugly things" ofcourse) that every-one mentions in this forum!

Giuseppe Ottaviani - Linking People

Nooooooooooo!!!! I hate this track, it is the most formulaic uninspiring piece of trance I have ever heard. Terrible, and FAR from being a classic!?

When did these tunes ever become trance? "Nothing" is a little bit more trancier than "Beautiful Things" but it baffles me how "Beautiful Things" is trance music? I know the direction of trance changed with stuff guys like Markus Schulz were playing, but it never occured to me that "Beautiful Things" would be trance, it's more like a more mainstream progressive house tune, like a lot of G&D's stuff. They aren't really trance music producers, they don't even play much trance like Markus and Armin do...more like progressive house/electro house (which Markus does as well time to time). I just don't see anything resembling trance in "Beautiful Things" or "Summer Calling" other than a few remixes of those tracks...I can see guys arguing against these not being trance, or that cheesy euro stuff like Ian Van Dahl and Lasgo, because quite frankly it's just not trance. It's way different than the stuff by Micro de Govia, old Armin, Tiesto's old stuff (like Kamaya Painters), Ferry Corsten's old stuff like System F, Solar Stone, Ronski Speed, Art Of Trance, Vincent de Moor, Oliver Lieb, Steve Helstrip's stuff like Rapid Eye and Hydra, or any of that psy/goa stuff.

Careful, Spirit, you're starting to sound like those you used to argue against.

PS: Beautiful Things is often regarded as trance just because Tiesto put it on a mix CD. That's it. Of course, it really isn't, but that doesn't stop the clueless from claiming otherwise, now does it?

Seriously whenever i hear someone that prefer the Orkidea remix i just feel sick. Why can ANYONE EVER prefer the Orkidea remix? It completely ruins the point of the original track (which is to be a fucking cool track) and makes it dull and uninspired. And shitty. And standard trance-like.

Rant over.

I could agree on these three. And also add in Helsinki Scorchin', whether or not you lot think it's overplayed. It'll easily be in contention for ch00n of 2006, and I say rightfully so. There's a reason why it's "overplayed".

I'm such a noob. I wanted to get back with you on the Scorchin' track now that I've finally heard it in all its glory just to tell you that I disagree with you, lol.

Try Super8's older track 'Cre8'. That track for me qualifies as a better contender than the Scorchin' one. He's also one-half of Aalto and they have been disappointing as of late. Anyhow you should also check out their older tracks 'Taurine' and 'Rush'. You will notice the difference.

I might as well make this bump worth while. I'd like to include the following track to this thread:

Aspekt - Hijack
