You can become a great Trance Dj no matter where you live If you wanna become famous only in Miami then become a House Dj. But then again you will become just another house dj from Miami. I mean 90% of the population of Miami is a house Dj I say play what you want . If you really love it and feel it there is a better chanceof you makin it rather than if you are a dj just cause thats what everyone is into. You choose.

if u like both house and trance.. why not warm up your own set with house then play trance?

cause he'll clear the dancefloor quicker than a bomb threat unless the crowd likes trance. if its at a monthly trance event then heck, go for it. otherwise its generally house music in all of town.

I DONT THINK HOUSE IS BIGGER THAN TRANCE OR VICE VERSA (GOOD MUSIC IS GOOD MUSIC NO MATTER THE STYLE OR GENRE)

FACTS ARE THAT MUSIC TRENDS CHANGE & MOST IMPORTANTLY EVOLVE

& FOR THE MOST PART TRANCE MUSIC HAS NOT EVOLVED

HOUSE HOWEVER HAS FROM TRIBAL TO ELECTRO, TECH TO MINIMAL

I ALSO FEEL THAT DRUGS PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE (NO PUN INTENDED)

SO JUST LIKE EVERYONE SAID, FOLLOW YOUR HEART & PLAY WHAT YOU WANT

BEST OF LUCK

I can already forsee this topic turning into a flame war...although I am hoping not.

I just started djing myself and I stay around the area. House is indeed the bigger genre over here but I love trance, well tech trance to be in fact. I tell my friends all the time trance is better and has a better vibe well imo at least but they think other wise. They are all into the after hours music but hey it's good but I just love trance way more. Well at least they are booking more trance dj's now like Ferry at Mansion but booking SVD at Space was the best idea ever!

Thanks you guys for all the advice. Oh and please make the moderator happy by not making this topic into a flame war. That wasn't my intention for this thread.

Oh I know! lol but not everyone here has the same intentions. There are many different opinions on here & they usually don't compliment one another.

Glad you got your info though

I like music, good music.. as longest you know how to mix good music, you should be fine, and good music ranges from trance to house.

Can you believe Danny Tenaglia played Trance in the Carl Cox tent @ Ultra?? ( Obviously it was like 2-3 tunes, but he threw them into the set )I would think you won't, be he did.. and I was shocked, and people loved it. ;-)
