1998-2012 What year was the best for music releases in your opinion?

I asked this on facebook but I am going to ask here too because I need more replies. This is mainly on trance but whatever genre you prefer is welcome as well.

Please pick ONE year that you feel is the best if you can. This is for a project I am working on and the winning year will determine the outcome of my project.

My vote would probably be 2003.

'99 - unbelievable year in trance! Nothing has come close since, even though the 2003-2007 range was great

Posted by kadomony on Dec-21-2012 08:17:

im taking into account all styles of dance so, i'd have to say 2008. trance was still pretty good, the indie dance and nu disco scene came up, deep house on point, techno and such still rocking strong

Posted by LAdazeNYnights on Dec-21-2012 08:20:

I find that most of my favorite releases are dated '03, '04, '05 ...somewhere in there.
I voted '04

Posted by euphoria on Dec-21-2012 17:40:

Ok keep em coming so far 1999 is a winner. 1999 was def a good year!
