UK Trance?

Can someone explain this?

I see in some patch names the words "UK", sometimes "UK Trance". ie.: "Euro Pikes UK" or "UK Trance Bass"..

But I really don't know the purpose of the patch... Is this for use mainly in a variation of trance? In England?

I think they refer to the Anjunabeats sound.

Na I think it's more to do with the UK harcore, happy hardcore, speedcore sound. They refer to it as trance for some reason though.

No.
I've heard those presets he's talking about. I think they're on the Virus vengeance banks and they're definately Anjuna type sounds.

I think you just missed it.

These patches are only for people from the UK.

If you bought the Vengeance virus bank and live outside the british isles i suggest you remove these preset right away.

Well I have those presets too. Am I allowed to have them while I'm in the UK from Sunday to Tuesday?

According to paragraph 9.7 in the Vengeance user agreement, these presets may be used when the subject is travelling within the UK region.
It is forbidden to leave the preset available on the device when and while you are leaving UK.

This means that you have to load the preset into the device after you have stepped inside the borders, but the presets must be immediately removed from the device before deviating from the UK borders.

Slighly modifications and changing names of the given presets is strictly forbidden and can be punished by court of law as well.

Thank you for clearing that up!

well guys, is natural all of you tend to lead some pathetic topics like this to jokes, because me too..

But it's not so pathetic.. What I really wanted to say is if there is some kind of variation in trance music such as: Uplifting, Progressive, Epic and maybe UKish...

But for now I agree with Eldritch, really sounds like Anjuna things..

Yeah im just being an ass.

Its just a preset really, u can say its Anjunatrance, you can probably say its 99 Trance or Armada Trance, Uplifting Trance, or UK Trance as Lange or Emery, it can be whatever you want it to be.

I remember using this exact preset in one of my tracks and that was none of the above.

Its just a name of a preset, i wouldnt put too much thought into it really.

This topic seems strange to me.
Variations in music styles is, for the most part, identified in their global chord use, chord progression tendencies, and cadences. Sometimes the manner of use of a particular element. Sometimes drums.
But pigeonholing a synth texture or synth patch to particular genres seems pretty arbitrary to me.

Maybe if I heard the patches I'd change my mind.

That's not always how it works with dance music. Some genres are pretty much defined by their use of certain synth textures or "sounds" -- acid house, for example.

Back before digital labels, mp3 etc you had to release songs mainly through a label, these labels tended to have a different sound to each other based on where they came from.

You def had a diff style of trance if it was UK, dutch, german or italian label.

Very good point.

Internet is killing "local sounds."

hey MOK sure, variation is a word mostly used for musical structures...

I meant sub-genre... My English is yet confused because I'm not from USA or UK sorry...

Not in psy,

theres still the south african sound, the swedish sound, the aussie, the isreali sound.

Yes, they are definitely reminiscent of the Anjuna-sound. You can also find patches with the same name on the Nucleus Soundlab Virology soundbank, which are pretty good in my opinion as well.

My theory is that if it doesnt have Dutch in the patch name then dont touch it!
