So my boyfriend doesn't listen to trance, but he asked me if I could find him at least one trance song that he'll like. I've already tried the obvious ones, like Silence (Airscape Remix), Flaming June, and Ecuador, as well as newer trance tracks like Cerf, Mitiska, & Jaren, Armin Van Buuren, Oceanlab, and really old tracks like Sunbeam and Nautilus, yet to no avail.

The only things I have to go on is he doesn't like the repetitiveness of instrumentals, all vocal tracks I've tried sound "too monotone", and that his favorite DJ is Manian.

Please help, I am desperate to find at least one trance track that he'll like!

Thank you!

Repetitiveness is part of dance music not just in trance. I personally stopped trying to get people into the genre and I wouldn't call Cerf Mystika and Jaren trance either. It depends what does he like in a track?I don't know what that DJ is he is that Italo dance dj?

idk maybe this?



I wouldn't try to convince someone to like the same music, even just one song. All I can recommend is my own taste, for example:




Or what a lot of other people find popular. With 140,000,000+ views, people really seem to like this trance song:

Well he said he likes the beat of his songs, which is a pretty broad term, I'm assuming the kick and bassline. And yes, he's like a pop dance/rave dj, one of those guys that uses auto-tune all the time.

It's not really me trying to get him into trance really, it's that he tends to go out of his way to say trance isn't music, while saying artists like Nicki Minaj are, and I'm trying to change that. Not really get him into trance, but show him that it's not what he thinks it is.

And I think that In and Out of Love would be the type of track that he likes, I shall send it to him as soon as he wakes up, thanks!

With all due to respect to your bf but, nicki minaj is not music he must be tone deaf to say trance is not music.

In out of Love is Pop music so he should like that sort of stuff. I guess he must like Dash Berlin's latest pop records too.

Maybe try some of Faithless' anthems (Insomnia, God Is A DJ, Salva Mea, etc.). While not really trance-trance, they do have similar attributes (OMG anthems!), so it could serve as an easier gateway.

Yea as cringe worthy as trance can be, it sounds like your taste in music still a lot better than his.
