Hey

I've witnessed that my love for Trance music is fading away lately. Maybe it's due to the lack of good productions of this time, everything just sounds the same all the time , same synths and boring uplifting basslines which r starting to get on my nerves.

I used to be a frequent listener of ASOT and a big fan of Armin , Tiesto , Ferry and all the major trance guys but it seems that im not intersted in this genre of music anymore .

Instead of this i'm more into Electro and Prog House music ( Not MCPROG which also sounds all the same lately ). The Dj's i hear nowadays r Mylo , Sasha , John Digweed , Sander Kleinenberg, , Max Graham, steve lawler etc... their music is a lot more sophisticated and diversed and only now i understand why These genres and dj's dont get bashed like trance music and it's djs. Besides im really into all the Synth-pop , electro and new wave from the 80's which imo created all the genre of trance as we know today.

I would have never thought that this would happen to me as i was a True Trance , uplifting and MCPROG addict and always thought to myself how can ppl enjoy listening to Prog House and Electro but nowadays it's just amazing for me to hear Prog or electro sets , so well built and organised and gives me the thrill more than what trance used to give me back in the days.

Does anyone feel the same as i do regarding trance and it's lack of creativity in the past 6 months or so ??

p.s when i say Electro i surely do not refer to Ferry Corsten's electro music which i do not like at all !!!

check Dibaba's new album - nice mixture of electro, synth-pop and a bit of deep/tech-house.

here we go again

Good. Because it isn't electro. It's just another tag trance fans slapped on his style because they felt the need to be different.

Furthermore, welcome to the bandwagon.

My take on... (various mixes planned, updated when I can be arsed)

it happens to all genres. everything eventually starts to sound the same. eventually prog and electro stuff you listen to will get old.

its the same with any genre, you get tracks that are pure generic *insert pigeonholed genre name here* whatever you listen to. its all about weeding out the dull and unimaginative tracks and looking for something a little bit special.
ps, mc prog is shit

u r not alone
there are still good trance tracks, check out marc marberg - guarana for something thats different yet still trance, but good tracks are fewer and further apart than the amount of releases would have you believe.

trance is still there - itll always be there, but the majority of tip top dance music being produced atm isnt trance.

hooked on pure cheese?

been there for quite some time now, i LOVE the old trance tracks, and still searching for the overlooked oldies..

but the new shit, Schulz and ASOT, doesnt do it for me at all.. only m.i.k.e tracks are still of interest though
