I think your cd's are more uplifting than those cd's you have just bought.

Maybe check out Marco V or Mauro Picotto for some tech trance?

mix cd's blow imo, go get some good dj live sets.

its not a CD, but you can download Ferry Corsten - Live at Trance Energy 2000, its a very good energetic set.

Paul Oakenfold - Perfecto presents another world

....is a good one, it builds up the climax of Timo Mass - Ubik

Another energic CD is: Carl Cox - Mixed Live (chicago crobar), its off moonshine. When i got the CD i was totally blown away. Amazing energy in this.

The style of music you want is UPLIFTING TRANCE.
All the CDs you mentioned like George Acosta - Touched is PURE uplifting, no matter what anyone says.

Alot of the suggestions you've been getting such as Paul van Dyk's CDs, Oakenfold, Carl Cox etc... they're all different than what you want, they're leaning away from true uplifting trance but still considered trance... the style you want is not progressive or house if you like George Acosta like you said.

It's more uplifting trance that you seem to like since you are talking about breaks and buildups and tons of energy. The following are like the 3 most important DJs in the uplifting music scene. Ferry Corsten has released some very uplifting and energetic CDs such as:

Ferry Corsten - World Tour Series (So far there is Tokyo and Washington)
System F - Out of the Blue (This is an artist album, all his tracks)


Armin van Buuren is one of the better uplifting DJs right now although he seems to be mixing in more progressive in his recent live sets, but definitely check out some of his less recent CDs such as:

Armin van Buuren - Boundaries of Imagination
Armin van Buuren - 001, 002, 003, and 004 series

also definitely check out the following from Tiesto

Dj Tiesto - Magik 6 : Live in Amsterdam
Dj Tiesto - Summerbreeze
Dj Tiesto - In Search of Sunrise (1 or 2, 3 is a bit more progressive)

Magik 6 has tons of energy and very uplifting tracks while Summerbreeze was a CD intended for the American public and expose them to more uplifting trance. The In Search of Sunrise series was intended to be a more melodic and uplifting trance than his Magik series which was more for the nightclub setting, but still uplifting and tons of energy. Take a look at those if you get a chance!
Enjoy, these CDs are what defines uplifting!

You guys rock! Thanks!

I do like Ferry I have a couple of his CDs I'll look into the titles mentioned. I'll also plan to pick up some Armin and Tiesto (Although I have SummerBreeze and Magik 7 and they bored me) Maybe 6 is more uplifting or maybe I need to give them another listen. I have heard his older stuff is more uplifting. I have purchased over 80 Trance/House CDs in the last 3 years and I only love about a dozen of them. Maybe I'm just too picky.

Whiskers I went to FYE because I can sample the CDs there. I do go to Newbury Comics quite a bit and they do have a good selection. I'm in Manchester, NH btw although I get to Boston quite a bit. What's the hot spots for DJs there these days? Still the Avalon?

Yeah I meant the older stuff. Picotto spins prog house now?
