They aren't really trance music producers, they don't even play much trance like Markus and Armin do...more like progressive house/electro house (which Markus does as well time to time). I just don't see anything resembling trance in "Beautiful Things" or "Summer Calling" other than a few remixes of those tracks...I can see guys arguing against these not being trance, or that cheesy euro stuff like Ian Van Dahl and Lasgo, because quite frankly it's just not trance. It's way different than the stuff by Micro de Govia, old Armin, Tiesto's old stuff (like Kamaya Painters), Ferry Corsten's old stuff like System F, Solar Stone, Ronski Speed, Art Of Trance, Vincent de Moor, Oliver Lieb, Steve Helstrip's stuff like Rapid Eye and Hydra, or any of that psy/goa stuff. |
Careful, Spirit, you're starting to sound like those you used to argue against.
PS: Beautiful Things is often regarded as trance just because Tiesto put it on a mix CD. That's it. Of course, it really isn't, but that doesn't stop the clueless from claiming otherwise, now does it?
