Good song. Got the record and only played it like twice. Need to bust it back out, if I get the chance to play trance soon.

I really like the old stuff like Veracocha - Carte Blanche, Armin - Communication, Vengaboys - Kiss (Airscape Mix), and North Pole - Afterburn.

If you like "Never Look Back", check out Dumonde - God Music, Barthezz - On the Move (Dumonde Mix), Dumonde vs. Lange - Memory, and Marc Aurel - Running (Dumonde Mix).

I've always thought any tracks by Matt Darey & Marcella Woods, and Lost Witness fit the definition of "epic"...does anyone know what I mean? lol

There seem to be a split agreement over what is defined as "epic" trance. I've heard some say that 'paul van dyke - for an angle' being a typical "epic" trance tune. They seem to think of it as close to "dream" trance, but with a little bit more energy. However, I've seen other defy it as trance tunes that have a continues flow of energy where the verse and chorus sound similar and carries similar amounts of supersaw energy. Kinda like the way uplifting trance sounded back in 98-01.
