The last 3 months have been really hard on my credit card since there have been some quality releases out lately. There have also been some poor and rather boring productions come out but everyone has their opinions. I'm just getting tired of the same old uplifting tunes

Not so much uplifting this year. Was more prog IMO.

I found 2003 to be the best year yet... IMHO.

I don't care if people don't agree... there was so much awesome stuff this year.

could you say the year of prog/breaks?
luke chable, markus schulz, PQM, gabriel & dresden, attention deficit, trifactor, bonicci, junkie xl, james holden, james talk, sultan, tone depth, the greek, nathan fake, hybrid, porter, infusion, freeland, mark otten, et al, all went nuts this year. nuts, i tell ye.

and then there was trance.


<--agrees with the preceeding post. 1998-9 were the best for trance. 2003 seems to me the best year so far for EDM.

I'm not saying that it's the year of uplifting, just that there are too many repetitive uplifting tracks coming out.

2003 = the year of posers trying to jump onto the breaks bandwagon.

I know I was just agreeing with you about that theres not much uplifting to talk about this year, well good uplifting anyways.

I disagree with some earlier posts, I think the uplifting tracks have been great this year. Sure, a lot of the tracks are formulaic, but, with the exception of a select few tracks, most uplifting songs are structured in pretty much the same way.

One great thing about this year is that the experimental progressive trance sounds that emerged in late 2002 have really matured and resulted in amazing new productions. Gabriel and Dresden and James Talk never fail to produce tracks that are both innovative and brilliant.
