It all started when my wife bought me tickets to PVD at HOB in Orlando a few months ago...

Up until then, I really hadn't listened to much trance. As a matter of fact, I really didn't prefer it at all. I have an old Kimball Collins CD from Trance Nation that I realy enjoyed, but just hadn't "found" trance yet. Anyway, my wife surprized me with the tickets, after we had seen that PVD was coming to Orlando. At the time I had his Politics of Dancing CD, but hadn't heard it all the way through even. I have to admit, I was a "Breaks" person... Like I explained it to Brent, Trance to me was like one of those 3D pictures in the mall, that you have to stare at for awhile before the 3D picture comes into view - when you relax your eyes. Trance has been the same to me... it's taken me a long time to learn how to "see" the amazing music contained inside...

Well, I bought the Global PVD DVD, and slowly, through immersion, or whatever, I slowly fell in love with it. Along the way, I was posting at Enation.org, where Zewad "took me under his wing"... and exposed me to some really good music, and to TA.

So here I am. On a music search. Brent is away, and I was hoping to get some recommendations on new music. I've been enjoying Tiesto's Nyana for the last few weeks, but as always, am on that "search". I was also wanting some recommendations on seeing Oakenfold in Orlando... I really don't like Bunka that much..... I have his CD set "Travelling", and REALLY like it..

I guess I'm becoming a TA. My music quest has definately shifted to Trance. I am most familiar with PVD, Oakenfold, Tiesto, ATB, and Sasha's new one. I bought Digweed's "Stark Raving Mad" but don't care for it much at all. I think my craving is for euphoric, uplifting Trance. For example, I enjoy CD2 of Nyana more than CD1 for some reason.

Well, hope to hear from you all... for now ATB's "Addicted to Music" is my latest purchase.. Let me know what to look for, or perhaps some older "standards".
