Help A Sheltered Indiana Kid Discover Trance

Hi. I am a skydiver. I was recently introduced to trance by the simple fact that a lot of skydiving videos are accompanied by trance music. The first song that really made me think, "Huh, this stuff is pretty cool" was Van Dahl's 'Castles In The Sky'.

I'm very new to all of this, and basically what I'm looking for is just a list of tracks that you guys recommend I check out, based off of what I already like. Here are some tracks that I'm really into at the moment. (I realize by admitting to like some of these songs it might make me a "pussy" or whatever; but I don't care, so spare me the insults ):

Gouryella - Gouryella
Solar Stone - Speak In Sympathy
Ian Van Dahl - Castles In The Sky
Oceanlab - Satellite
Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes
DJ Tiesto - In Search of Sunrise 3
Gouryella - Walhalla
Chicane - No Ordinary Morning

Alright, so based off of that list, what other tracks could you guys recommend to me to help me further discover trance? Thanks!

Cory

Hah! Bravo!

Might I also suggest Christopher Lawrence, one of my personal faves?

I'm also a skydiver and just got into trance a few years ago. Welcome to musical bliss.

Thanks AJ, that's just the type of list I was looking for. I have a few other Chicane tracks on my iPod, I love them. Probably my favorite trance artist I've found so far.

Castles In The Sky in a skydiving video?

Posted by Zombie0915 on May-02-2005 01:40:

well it does kinda fit, them flying all up in the air and the word sky in a song, who would have anticipated our little form of dance music accompaning skydiving footage 10 years ago?

i think thats pretty neat that the skydiver likes it, maybe background music isnt so bad
