Starting this topic was difficult... I was just enjoying Above and Beyond - Sirens of the Sea and I decided to join this amazing forum.

This is my first post, so if this is in the wrong section feel free to poke me about that

I am a big fan of the "oldskool" ones ( let's say from 1994 - 1999 ) I was a big fan of Sensation White, until 2006 where they merged Black and White into the shittest event I ever heard

I have been listening to some newer trance in the past years, but I could never listen to all of them. So i'm looking for a way to expand my view on trance, that which I have loved since I was young.

From ATB till Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten I know them all. But I was hoping to find some input from you guys to discover trance-legends that I have never heard of.

I am mostly looking for the "older" trance, and new trance also applies. A mix of trance with dance/techno is fine aswell

It would be to hard to name all the artists I know

Drop me a name, and I'll listen

PS: And yes I actually admit that, when trance touches my heart and soul, I sometimes feel a tear rolling down my cheek. Damnit, I love trance so f*cking much!

go to homepage and click on the music linky

Try searching for Oliver Lieb (also known as LSG, Paragliders, Spicelab, etc.):

These compilations are must haves:


Behind The Eye - Eye Q Records compilations 1 to 4 + Five Years Of Eye Q Records too.


Platipus Records (Volumes 1 to at least 5)



They will cover the basics for you, and they are really, really awesome.

Huge thread about dark prog trance.

Massive Youtube thread full of classic trance

Look into all of Tiesto's work from 1999-2002 era

His best stuff from that time period are, IMO...

Tiesto - Suburban Train
Jan Johnston - Flesh (Tiesto Remix)
Delerium - Silence (Tiesto In Search of Sunrise Mix)
Goldenscan - Sunrise (Tiesto Remix)
Baleric Bill - Destination Sunshine (Tiesto Power Mix)
Aria One - Willow (DJ Tiesto Magikal Remake)
Tiesto - Sparkles

ignore his cheesy stuff like... Adagio For Strings, Flight 643, Traffic..

if you want HARD trance, then listen to:

Megara vs DJ Lee - For a Moment (Original Mix)
Megara vs DJ Lee - Hold Your Hands Up High (Original Mix)

Other good songs are:

Tastexperience - Highlander (Original Mix) <--- I thank System-J for this one
Tastexperience - Summersault (Original Mix)
Lost Tribe - Gamemaster
Rank 1 - Airwave (Original Mix)
Gouryella - Gouryella

if you totally want an old school track list, here you go:
http://www.listology.com/list/top-4...tracks-all-time

"The Top 100 Greatest Trance Songs" is a list from the TranceAddict leader himself, I believe. correct me if I'm wrong.
http://www.listology.com/list/100-greatest-trance-songs

^ (did the creator of TA create that list?)

Thanks so much for the replies

I can't wait to spend this evening listening

He's looking for stuff he's never heard of and you list Tiesto?!

What the hell makes Flight 643 cheese and not the rest of the stuff on your tiestolist?

Sirens; ignore Pluvoise, Vernon and saluyamos replies are the only ones you need.

Also check Andy Blueman if you need more gay trance. He is the master of it.
