I feel the same way about Santa Clouse.

But trendhouse exists - at least for you, yes?

It's all becoming clear now..

I don;t like it. Sounds more like the "high tech" gadgetry of some startrek space ship of the 80s.

Gabriel & Dresden - Eleven FTW!!!

I sooooooo thought I was being innovative by thinking to start an "electro trance" thread, but good thing I did a search first. Long live electro trance!

Yes, electro trance is FUCKING AWESOME! It's like progressive trance, but it let's you experiment with vintage 80s synths. I dunno about you, but I like to put a lil flash dance in my trance pants.

There's no such thing as electro trance.

No he's right. Did you learn anything from this thread? If not read it over.

Hehe. I love reading some of these old 'new genre!' debate threads. It's fascinating to see whom the passage of time proved right.

Electronic Music Critic: Near-Daily Ruminations Of Music I Own, In Alphabetical Order!

clearly its not a genre yet because not enough people are playing the stuff that could be classified as electro and trance (electro-trance).......when enough people jump on board to ferry corsten's (or whoever else is playing wat some of these people are calling electrotrance) realitively new sound which is different to trance but still not quite electro then its going to have to be defined somehow. electrotrance would be the name of it i guess, i think alot of people here just hate all this new electrohouse stuff that they dont want to admit that trance is having its own sort of version of it.

because people love to make assumptions about my taste in music i should note that i hate "electrotrance" even though it doesnt really exist yet and i also hate electrohouse

I only read the first and last pages, but it from that it seems, everything in the middle is mostly the same: people dont think electro-trance is a genre. I would partly agree with that, but from my perspective (which is not vast or as knowledgable as a lot of you guys) I would say electro trance is more of a trend right now.

Two tracks that I would consider electrotrance (not necessarily ferry's LEF style though) are AvB - This world is watching me and Alex MORPH & Rank 1 - Life less Ordinary, and both of these tracks reached the top 20 in Armin's ASOT. I have only been really passionate about EDM music for less than a year, so I'm not too sure about this, but I would guess that that is 2 more electro-trance songs in the top 20 than last year or any other year.

I just wanted to show my perspective on this whole issue. Seems everyone is thinking in terms of black and white, with no grey area in between. So, electrotrance I guess I would say is a trendy style that has popped up recently. I don't think its been around long enough yet (someone correct me if I'm wrong though) to be called a genre yet, but it could possibly in the future.

Okay. There's still no such thing as electro-trance.
