A new genre?-> "bassline trance"?
We have always known there are many sub-genre's of trance (hard, psy, tech, epic, goa, melodic, vocal, euro, etc)
But I have yet to be satified with my personal sound as a genre. I want to see a "bassline trance" or "hard-electro-tech-trance" sound emerge. These tracks are out there, and they come out less frequent than others, but let me try to describe this sound to you:
The melody of the song (the part you're humming in your head) is usually a higer-end synth in most trance tracks. But you run across songs that have a bassline-only melody. Similar to drum&bass, the bassline does not end. But rather than sophisticated breaks on top of this bassline, there is a trance structure, buildups, explosive finale's and so on. During a trip to London last year, I went to a gatecrasher party, and one of the opening DJ's was playing this sound, track after track!!! Then he ended before I knew who he was. But it goes to show, there is enough of this "bassline trance" sound to fill a set.
My question is this: do you think there is enough of this new sound out there to be an emerging trance sub-genre??? Also, who are producers/dj's that you've heard produce/remix/spin bassline trance tracks like this?
The closest know DJ I could name would be Tomcraft, but his basslines a distinctly 80's influenced. The influence that I describe (and long for) I believe gets it's bass influences more from the drum and bass realm and 80's synths...
What do you think?
