CDs worth buying

Whats up, I've been going clubbing for a few years now and love trance music, but I don't really know anything about it. I only really started getting heavily into trance a few months ago and since have downloaded a ton of it onto my computer. However I would like to buy a few good albums or CDs and was wondering what your favorite ones were, or if you had any recommendations for a newbie. Thanks

I have too many faves that go across many genres

gu013 - sasha in ibiza
gu014 - digweed in hong kong
gu012 - seaman in buenos aires
gu015 - emerson in uruguay
gu023 - lavelle in barcelona
gu024 - warren in iceland
gu008 - warren in brazil

coldcut - 70 mins of dj madness
unkle - never never land
free*land - now and them
WoW - Intensify
Hybrid - Wider Angle
PvD - Out There and Back
leftfield - rhythm and stealth
leftfield - leftism
chem bros - the singles 1993-2003
dave clarke - world service


that's should give you some stuff to find

Sasha - Airdrawndagger
Balance 005 Mixed by James Holden
Chilled Euphoria Mixed by Solar Stone
Chilled Euphoria Mixed by Red Jerry
Deep & Chilled Euphoria Mixed by Red Jerry
Global Communication - 76:14
Global Underground - Electric Calm
Global Underground - Electric Calm v.2
Global Underground - Afterhours
DJ Tiesto - Magik 6

As you can see there I'm more of a fan of chillout/ambient mix albums when it comes to quality CDs. Might not be what you like, but they're all quality albums (btw, not all of those are chillout).

Does gu stand for Global Underground?
And thanks for the advice guys I'm a fan of chillout but I think I'm looking to buy something more upbeat. Something to listen to in the car on the way to a party or while pregaming or some such. I don't have any cds that I can play w/o being laughed at by my friends who don't listen to trance. I want something to totally blow them away and convert them into tranceaddicts.

If you like uplifting trance you might want to hold off on the "Global Underground" series as it is more progressive and newcomers that love uplifting trance might find it a bit boring.

Dj Tiesto's Magik series (1 through 7) are excellent uplifting trance CDs, 5 and 6 especially.

The "00" compilations by Armin van Buuren are also very good (001 through 004), 004 especially. Also the Boundaries of Imagination by Armin is very good.

Other artists to look into are Ferry Corsten, Paul van Dyk, but if you are more into progressive definitely go for some of those Global Underground CDs... 13 Sasha :: Ibiza is one of the best.

I find Balance 005 Mixed by James Holden to be my favorite CD to drive to.

Thanks a bunch guys. I decided on Tiesto Magik 6, Armin Van Buuren boundries of imagination, and gu013 sasha::ibiza .
Based on their reviews these should get me started off in the right direction. I'll let ya know what I think when they arrive next week.

Don't get laughed at?

who cares what others think about your music

dave clarke's world service is the best to drive to with the windows down....hehehe...especially assume nothing at full bass...wooT!

cd 1 is great as well but xpander and heaven scent make the difference for me.

Hybrid- Wider Angel
Paul Oakenfold- Tranceport
Paul Van Dyk- Politics of Dancing
Nick Warren GU 24

FUCK YEAH!! I do that all the time w/ World Service. What's best is pumping the bass and getting to track 18 (Umek - Ceroxol). The bass at that song is so fucking wicked that I get everyone's attention
