I have been listening to rap/rock and roll my entire life up until this summer when I was introduced to trance by an austrian DJ and have since fell in love with eletronic music, mainly trance. I know pretty much nothing about trance except the fact that I love it. I do have some questions though. I have heard and love paul oakenfolds mixes. I love his 2000 mix @ space in ibiza, and his mix in havana (not sure on the date). anyways, I hear some eletronic songs and they sound terrible to me, and I will hear other songs and Love them. from the information gathered, the songs that I mainly do not like are breakbeat (:conf the faster paced songs that I can listen to all day are 'trance' (:conf. I really like darude, is there any other artists that produce a similar sound to darude??? I am just looking to gather a huge trance collection and was looking for some advise on who to buy/look for/download. Any advise on anything trance would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks a lot!!

Welcome to the wonderful world of trance!
You'd be well advised to grab anything by Push, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Rank 1, Tiesto.. for starters. Those are some huge names in trance, pretty much everything produced by them is quality. If you like to hear livesets, Paul Van Dyk (and the previous ones mention) has some excellent ones to check out.
And about Darude, he's not very highly considered as most of his songs use the exact same samples in them with a few things changed (read: cheese) and also very overplayed songs. I'm not sure of any songs that sound like his..except well his own
This should be enough to get you started, enjoy.

wassup...its coo to hear you gettin into trance..
1st of all see what kind of style/genre of trance you like...such as psy, hard, uplifting, progressive etc...after that find out who produces songs in that genre...
as for darude..i think youll find other producers that have 10000 million times more talent than that guy
some recommendations for songs to dl are:
marco v - rise
marco v - g.o.d.d (marco v.ision remix)
paul van dyk - take me higher
pulp victim - dreams last for so long
lange feat. skye - drifting away (hiver and hammer remix)
airbase - spin
redd square - in your hands (minimalistix remix)
cosmic gate - the truth
joker jam - innocence
the ones listed above are various styles so if you like 1 artists style just post it and well hook you up...

My advice... find your own taste.
1. Download all the sets from gttp://www.tranceaddict.com/livesets.shtml and more sets at http://d2k.dedserver.org. Just start listening and your ears will tell you what you like.
2. Read up on news from this forum but don't take opinions to heart.
