Well, something happened after I saw pvd back in october...trance just lost all touch towards me...

maybe it was the fact that i didn't enjoy pvd's set much, maybe it was the fact that i had already heard 90% of the tracks he played...I don't know but it's weird, I just haven't kept up with trance at all since mid october...

I've since become addicted to deep dish and even more of dave clarke's stuff...house/techno/electro control my cd player now, it's not like this hasn't been going on for awhile anyway...

Maybe someone will do something creative and innovative and will spark my interest in trance once again...

*shrug* just thought i'd post since i disappeared after posting a lot for a short time...

Hmmm...I've found that the only uplifting stuff that i listen to these days is the old stuff fron 99 and 98, otherwise I'm strictly progressive these days as well. I'm also digging the funky progressive house and progressive trance that ppl like Holden and Chab are making.

Sad to say but most of the quality stuff comming out is in the progressive variety. They just don't make quality uplifting trance like they used to.

BTW. Don't tell me that "Souvneir de Chine" is quality trance...that song sucks !!!!

Hmm. Sometimes I have those periods that I only listen to U2 or other music. Most of the time those periods start because I'm getting totally sick of the noise of trance through my speakers.

But after a while the kick comes back and I start listening to trance (progressive and uplifting) for a long time again.

So don't worry. You'll get over it, believe me

ah ffs not another topic like this

Hummm....Well you guys think what you want. all I say towards that is Were in a "recession" for good tracks at the moment. Once we get some, you will all change your minds...trance can't lose its touch....ever

Which I think will happen very soon by listening to some of the stuff Armin & Ferry have been putting out lately.

If you want funky proghouse, check out Troy Roberts, along with any releases from Baroque (atleast lately). Deep Dish too is putting out some nice stuff (GU:21). For tech-house, try Lee Burridge (NuBreed 005).

I think the 2nd big boom will happen soon...the new rank 1 single should start it !!

LOL u wish...If it's anything like "Such is life" i'm not going to be holding my breath.

The uplifting trance period is not going to be back for a few years yet. It's sad to see it go but that the way it is folks...start to live with it.

couldn't agree more. i've also been listening mostly to 98-99 tracks/livesets. IMO, its certainly lost its magic.

2nd big boom with Rank 1??
hahahaha don't make me laugh!
2 weeks ago Piet Bervoets (one of the guys from Rank 1) was playing in a club in my hometown.. and it was HORRIBLE!! Pure cheeeeeeeze! He mostly spun stuff from 3 years ago and he ended with Airwave.. *puke* *puke* *puke* .
There won't be an 2nd Uplifting big boom.. all your so called heroes are moving away from that Uplifting shit. (PvD, Tiesto etc)
can't you see it? they are all moving on to prog trance/house.
c'mon, uplifting is soo cheezy and crappy, don't waste your time on it and go explore some other genres.. you won't regret it!
