Idea TrancEaddicts help me out

I need some recommendations on some new Quality trance! I've been so out of trance for almost half a year. I was just going through my collection and slipped in Chicane - Live @ Palladium 2000 and it's like my mind has been cleared.

After sifting through posts on the music discussion forums, i'd say 90% of the tracks and livesets posted on there are complete CRAP!!!

So what have you guys been listening to lately?

One track that brings back some good thoughts about this past Friday is Dumonde's Mix of DJ Marc Aurel - 'Running'. Other than that, I can't think of anything fantastic right now. I skip around genres quite a lot lately. I've always loved Blank & Jones, so there's some good stuff. Hatim's been poisoning my mind with Drum & Bass lately though...

that track and everything by blank and jones are so...clich�. like, it's got that typical trance formula that every avg trance track follows...and that typical trance synth that's in like 60% of trance tracks.

i'm looking for stuff like, midway - inca or jose amnesia - the eternal (pulser mix) or (aspiration mix)

p.s I Jungle

Jokes, but really, I hear ya. You want more to the side of what though? The kind of delectably dirty, hard tunage Mark Oliver drops (I Mark Oliver too, btw.), vocal stuff, uplifting, prog...? What is it you seek, grasshopper?

dirty yet soft, vocal but instrumental, progressive yet intriging, uplifting and original

oceanlab - beautiful together (signum remix) is all of these


Posted by Elmo-On-XTC on Sep-07-2003 23:28:

Posted by trancearmada on Sep-07-2003 23:44:

the only somewhat decent trance tracks out there in the last 2 months for me would be these:

Antidote (a.k.a. L-Vee/Airwave) - Paraglider [Progrez]
De-Progression - Twilight (Original Version) [ATCR]
Trans Motion (a.k.a. Marc O Tool) - Ultraviolet E.P. (Monkey/Tribalcell) [Underworld]

let me know what u think of these tracks...

everything else is crap...IMHO No wonder I guess, I don't listen to trance anymore...


Posted by Matt on Sep-07-2003 23:44:

Kansai - Remember this Night
M-Diva - Reachin' Out
Hiver & Hammer - 5 Million Miles
Corderoy - Sweetest Dreams (Greg Murray remix)
Iio - Smooth (Airbase remix)
Boss@Nova - Stone Cold


just to name a few.

you can always go back to basics: underworld - cowgirl

Depends. Listen to Digitallyimported.com! (Arg. And people MISSED the Exposure festival? Are you nuts??!?) Some of the mixes they put on are pretty good. OR amazing.

DJ ShoE Vol 4
Suzy Solar Perfect Trance 2.0
DJ Irish is good for hard trance
VA Heineken mix (DJ Push) I guess people got it in a case of beer in Israel and some plp said it sucked but I though it was good. I'm pretty ignorant to bad trance tho :P
Mischa - First Summer mix
Some DJ Doboy is good too.

If someone gets offended by the above suggestions don't flame me.


Posted by Elmo-On-XTC on Sep-08-2003 00:47:

paul van dyk @ energy 2003
paul van dyk @ nature one 2003



so there IS quality trance still being played

thx for the suggestions, i'll check them all out

Damn straight. But in this case, it's like 'you can't rape the willing'. DnB rocks my pants, so I'm being willingly held captive.

'Ja sei namorar'! Ah, nostalgia...

easy there ... there is good trance, and reffering to any type of music as crap is disrespectfull, just because you don't like it, it doesn't mean it's crap

OK well I did not mean to insult anyone, I know it may seem like I am being disrespectful but in IMHO (as I mentioned earlier ) I think most of the trance production has gone down in quality. It seems that todays trend is more of a quantity over quality...

And by the way more than half of this board bashes anyone and everyone who is or is somehow associated to being a Gino and/or listens to Euro/Freestyle or R&B/Hip-Hop yet you don't see anyone say anything in defence of that and say how that's disrespectful towards other people that listen to that kind of music. Do you? Well what about Country music, I bet you there isn't a single soul out of all the TOTA's that listens to Country, and I bet every single one of them refers to it as crap music... Wouln't that be considered disrespectful towards the country music and people that listen to it???

So in conclusion, I suggest that we start a thread where we (all the TOTA's) apologize to all the Gino's, R&B + Hip-Hop + Freestyle + Euro lovers out there that we have DISRESPECTED and apologize for the fact that we call their music CRAP. So that we don't seem so disrespectful... Peter do you want to start the thread?



p.s. dude don't get offended I have nothing against you and I'll admit I still listen to some old trance
