Looking for "epic" trance albums to meditate to...

I'm an EDM n00b so I guess "epic" trance is the right term... anyways this is the kind of stuff I'm looking for:

Basically very melodic trance I guess. Doesn't have to be necessarily uplifting, though I do prefer that most of the time. (second song for example is sorta in between emotionally...starts off kinda sad then transitions to a more hopeful feeling... at least to me)

Something "hard" with massive drops like this would definitely NOT be what I'm looking for (though I love this song):

Feel free to recommend just songs too .

Thanks guys.

(btw this is not Bhuddist meditation, don't know a ton about that, but this is a form of meditation in which music is fine... and for me, trance works best, but I simply don't know of enough songs/albums/etc. to meditate for extended periods of time)

Ok I'm gonna revise my post lol. ANY good trance that's not *too* "hard" (FML by deadmau5 would be hard), that could be good for meditating would be great. Thanks guys. I'm kinda at a loss here being new to EDM.

Art of Trance - Wildlife On One

Some good meditative tracks, in my opinion, are:

(Of the trance/progressive house sort)
Scott Bond + Solarstone - 3rd Earth
MFA - The Difference it Makes
Mike Foyle vs Signalrunners - Love Theme Dusk (Mike's Broken Record Mix)

(Of the chillout sort)
Aphex Twin - Xtal
M83 - Lower Your Eyelids To Die With The Sun
Radiohead - Videotape

As a side note to some of my TA peers: if you haven't read Markus Schulz's appeal for civility on TA, you should check it out:

That's over 6 years old now. Methinks his plea fell on disinterested ears.

Maybe he should contribute to TA more instead of bitching about things.

FYI, definitely not trance. More electro-house.

anything from John Stanford would be good for meditation

I know, I'm just giving an example of something that's "hard", at least to me... (and I listen to black metal lol).

For the record. There is some non-retarded BM out there that I'd actually bet some of you would like a lot... the ones I'm into are all repetitive in a sort-of EDM sort of way, with incredible melodies. Repetitive in a good way... a trancy way . I think I'll make a thread later... just curious to see what people think...
