Tough poll : Who's better, Nu-NRG or Stoneface & Terminal ?

Btw, hope this doesnt get moved to the polls thread, as its aimed in a music discussion sense as well as a Poll, I'm VERY intrigued to see how the voting goes on this....

Who produces the better more energetic stuff? Nu-NRG or Stoneface & Terminal ?

What a toughie!!!! my vote goes to Stoneface & Terminal.....

hmm shouldnt have included Neither as an option, should've made it "of the 2" :S

not nearly as entertaining as your last poll...
voted nu-nrg... because I did!

Id say Nu NRG for obvious reasons.

Their old stuff was great, some of their newer, techy stuff isnt as energetic. It'll be interesting to see what Giuseppe does in his solo project.

Always been meaning to ask of your opinion of Stoneface & Terminal and you didnt mention them, you slag THE_Chris

Posted by THE_Chris on Feb-15-2006 21:40:

Well here are some samples of some of their tracks.

Summerscape
Solarscape - Alive (Stoneface & Terminal Vocal Mix)
Ohm Boys - Down Under (Stoneface & Terminal Remix)
Kuffdam & Plant - Summer Dream (Stoneface & Terminal Remix)
4 Strings - Sunrise (Stoneface & Terminal Remix)
Marksun & Brian - Neno Itome (Stoneface & Terminal Remix)

I think the Stoneface & Terminal Remix of Fred Bakers - Beautiful Sunshine, is an absolute stunner, the original is good, but the S&T Remix takes it up to another level, a great uplifter

But i would have to go for Nu-NRG, not for there recent efforts, but because of Dreamland, Butterfly, Supersonik Way, and ofcorse Aloa P!, oh and there remix of Sunday Afternoon

I'm REALLY suprised Stoneface & Terminal are 10-2 down to Nu-NRG at the moment !

Hmmm.

Tis ok - I wouldnt go mad about it tho. Theres some nice stuff in there, but I do feel its a bit generic... fits in to Armins sets.

Nope, fraid Nu NRG (2002-2004) is still far better than Stone/Term Their old stuff (Moon loves the sun, Angelic remix, Last Experience etc) is still much more energetic (and feels more original) than any of those samples

your such a bitch at times Chris hehe

hmm, let me put Orgasmatron on now then

Posted by gizzymcg on Feb-15-2006 23:38:

Go listen to Live from Orgasmatron then tell me who is better!

Posted by Simcut on Feb-15-2006 23:45:

Il silencio e roto daaaaa....... NU-NRG!!!!!!

Okay, I take it back, Nu-NRG are better.... lol Ive just listened to Orgasmatron 5th May 2002 for the last 10 mins..... S&T are fucking good tho

Not to burst your bubble and I hope you don't take this personally but seriously what's the point of threads like this

Usually the people who ask these kinds of questions are the uninformed clueless people .... which I've always assumed you weren't as you are quite aware of the music.

Anyhow I take of vote of abstinence

Theres no bubble to burst mate..... I just think that fans of Nu-NRG and Stoneface & Terminal are of a similar crowd and it interested me to know who was thought of in a bigger way.... seems like nu-nrg are miles ahead I know a lot of the polls like this are complete bollocks but its interesting to know as I feel both artists are similar in a way.

Was a bit reluctant to do the poll but thought it was good to know....

Right now, to get my energetic melodic trance needs filled, I'd go with Stoneface & Terminal. Mostly because they have that slitghly rougher feel to their tracks compared to NU-NRG.

Both makes good energetic trance though so I'm always keeping an eye out for whatever they do.

Posted by Titan77 on Feb-16-2006 12:21:

Why do you guys compare S&T with Nu Nrg? Nu Nrg have a much bigger Fancrowd because of their "old" Hits.S&T build up their Project since about a half year. I think you should start this Poll in 1 year again...

Posted by Simcut on Feb-16-2006 12:31:

Well, I see what your saying, I wanted to see how S&T's popularity is, obviously they have a long way to go before they match Nu-NRG, I think they have really good quality in their productions and this year will be a big year for them...like the year Nu-NRG took off
