Techno is quality too, but different entirely

techno = loud banging noises, clashign together to make stoner kids dance.

Trance = melody x 10000...thats waht its all about kids.


yes.!

I think of techno as not very unique hard stuff while trance is somewhat sofer, deeper and more complex, placing a greater sense of emotion in the listener. er, thats what I came up with off the top of my head

Unfortunately no one can be told what the difference is, you have to hear it for yourself.

yea cheers morpheus

how is this a hard question???

techno in general is much more percussive and harder / abrasive than trance. from my understanding most trance is within a specific BPM range also (120's-130's?) and techno varies more or is within a completely different range. IANADJ but they have a totally different 'sound' altogether, and i think as a finer point there are some notable structure differences (though i couldn't tell you exactly what)...
