Trance music started evolving in the late 80's under three main influences: the first was the electronic new wave/industrial music of Front 242, Einstruze Neubatten, Killing Joke and the likes; the second was the electronic techno disco of Detroit; and the third was the psychedelic music of the seventies. The first step towards what we know nowadays as Trance or Goa Trance was done in 1988 with the introduction of the TB 303 sound into straight beat dance music, and the amazing effect it was found to perform over people dancing. This effect was further enhanced by the administration of a rediscovered drug called MDMA (or 3, 4 methylene-dioxy-methamphetamine) or as it was popularly labeled on the streets "Ecstasy" and so Acid music was born and brought upon the UK the summer of love.

Now let's jump a little bit backwards to the sixties and remind ourselves of a place called Goa in India. During the late sixties Goa has turned into a beach for freaks, rock stars, travelers, and various other excitement hunters, who lived by the ancient mantra of "sex, drugs and rock and roll". Although the fab of Goa has dropped by the late 80's, a hard-core group of Europeans and Americans have remained in that place. By the early 90's, people in Goa have found out the wonderful effect of the Acid music on a stoned head and started to further develop the style. The first people to do so were Goa Gil and his friends, who were living in Goa and experimenting with various musical styles to dance to since the late 60's. Parallel to that in Europe, some of the industrial/new wave musicians have started to take interest in the new sounds introduced by Acid music. They have bended them into their heavier electronic style using more dense sounds and heavier and faster rhythms these were the first steps of the new born child known as Goa Trance.

Americans started techno (Detroit: Derrick May)

At the moment, most trance comes from:

The Netherlands, Germany, USA and Belgium

You can't really pinpoint it to one person/group, can you, since trance is a mesh of all types of music; classical, techno, 80's new wave, etc. But when I think of the pioneers, I think of Jam & Spoon, Tangerine Dream, and Jean Michel Jarre, since they were what I started listening to.

but what was called trance ages ago, wouldn't really be called trance now would it, so it's hard to say. Suppose just gotta thank the people who were doing it when it was really leftfield, und unorthodox, till everyone finally realized- shit, this is wicked!

cheers

hehe I made a mistake typing..

The thread is about trance so I edited it to just reply about trance

I'd say that trance as we know it today started to appear in the early 1990s... Age of Love - Age of Love (Jam and Spoon Remix) being one of the early innovative track. Goa Trance started to develop in 1992 and 1993 on the beaches of the province of Goa in India.

i would have to say that its just progressed from Rave scene.. Also other forums of music made into one.. Its always moving changing! Thats the beuty of it!

Some of the Trances/house djs didn't always DJ that style..

I just like to listen to anything that gets me going!
