Stole this little article from a post MoonMan made a while back.

"The origins of trance music can be traced back hundreds of years to religious roots with tribal shaman, who with the aid of natural hallucinogenic and log drums, induced trance-like states on to the tribes people. The sound of trance as we know it, however did'nt emerge properly until 1991 in Germany, Israel and Goa.

The Repetitive nature of many of these early tracks in this era provided clubbers with the ideal chance to immerse themselves in a new style of music similar to how the origianl tribespeople did. Although, instead of buffalo skin stretched over a wooden log, the beats were created with machines and the nautural hallucinogenics were repalced with manufactured chemical alternatives, E etc"

I remember doing a search on google of the history of trance. There should be some great info on it.
