I've started to move away from dance and write songs and become more of an artist. I'm not comfortable being lumped in with trance. I've stopped wanting to play clubs and want to play gigs, get closer to the crowd and play deeper stuff. Being thought of as a dance artist or a DJ is demeaning"
Noooooooo!! I hope he's not serious about that.. Chicane has been my fav artist since '96 and i hope he will make more quality tunes so he can stay as my fav artist from now on.

I don't think "The Drive Home" is really that much different than his earlier stuff on "Far From the Maddening Crowds"...Chicane has always been more to the Chill-Out end of things than straight trance (with the notable exception of the Disco Citizens and Tomski reworks of his tracks...) which is fine with me.
I guess I don't understand how he could consider it "demeaning" to be lumped in with the dance music culture...I thought Chicane always got more than his fair share of recognition for being an original and unique artist.
All that said whatever he decides to produce I'll listen to, but it's a shame that he's not planning on doing more dance oriented productions

i say: do what you gotta do. if he doesn't prefer trance anymore, do something else. if you don't your music will just get bad.
