Do you guys like how Trance isn't that Popular?

Hey all, this is my first official post here and this is a question thats always been on my mind, i Personally love that trance is underrated because it makes me feel unique, only because that no one i ever talk to listens to Trance music but when I show people a few songs their always asking me to burn them a CD or give them a name of a song. I recently stumbled upon it, when i went back to England to see family in 2009 the first Trance song i heard was Chicane's Poppiholla and I was like "what is this music!!!" When i went home i just went onto youtube and looked all over the place and now i think i have built up a pretty descent library of trance music.

Anyway back to the topic, I just hate what todays music with Eminem, Rhianna, Kanye, and Brittney, it just seems like Everyone and their mother is into it, I mean I like how trance is underground and it makes you feel like your more of a defined person for liking something that is barely known. I hope Trance is never ever popularized and it just stays the way it is.

My favorite artists are Chicane, Mat Zo, Arty, ATB, BT, Above & Beyond, Markus Shultz, Robert Nickson, and DJ Eco at the moment. My least Favorite is Tiesto, i think hes a sellout because he collabs with people along the lines of who i just mensioned.

Anywho i wasn't listening to the classic Trance back in the day and i always see how people talk on here or anywhere in general how trance music was better back then so if you guys guys could tell me a tracks or people back then that were good Id appreciate it.

Trance have put a big dent into my life, i even went out and got the JP8000 synthesizer because people told me it practically gave birth to Trance.

lol, pretentious much?

Some golden lulz there mate.

I wish Trance was popular, but its never going to happen.

I find whenever I tell people how much of a spell trance has on me I have to mash my dick down harrrrrrd in my pants. Which this happens oftenly and usually saunaly.

trance is too sacred to talk about with just anybody. i reserve any mention whatsoever only for those worthy of the journey.

Classic

In all honesty, EDM will never be popular as those artists you mentioned because the songs are longer, more complex, and could get repetitive. You need to come out with 3-4 minute track with a simple lyrics/hook to get any airplay @ US radios and get exposure. I listen to variety of house, techno, trance, tech-house, etc and my brother still thinks it all sounds the same. I was listening to Armin on my car one day while filling up and a guy approached me next car told me "I love that techno shit".

depends what you consider popular. if you mean your face like top 40 then: no! i would want trance to be like that. but i would say it is "underground" either...

Then how come everybody knows this song?

DOES. NOT. COMPUTE.

ok so you found an exception, how does that make his point not compute?

It's funny how most people who complain about other people selling out have also never had the opportunity to sell out, themselves.

thats kinda weird as it came the same year as trance got cancer and died three years later. im actually willing to say that this synth is a big part of the reason why trance is so shit.

My taste in music is also dictated by a requirement that it be so obscure, esoteric and inaccessible that only the most pretentious twat would bother playing it.








And then, only on headphones.

Then what are you doing on a Trance forum then?

to fight the stereotype of elitist behavior?

Secretly confirming my proposal - which is instrumental to a personal narrative mythology casting me in a self-aggrandizing light - that my taste in music is more nuanced and sophisticated than the average commoner who I have falsely reduced to a cartoonish buffoon, only capable of detecting the most simplistic of rhythm whilst barely able to comprehend the complexity of melodic content, using closed-circle logic which itself advances that any song anyone else likes is automatically inferior because someone else likes it.

i've started to see some trance in the radio, progressive tunes aren't for the masses but they happen to like 3 minute radio edits of supersaw tracks.

You are very special.
