One thing I hadn't thought of earlier is that Paul very avidly describes his music as simply being, "electronic dance music," whereas in this article he places his music and that of van Dahl's and DJ Sammy's pop music on the same playing field, as if they were in the same genre--which they are not. Something seems inherently wrong about this, especially in the end when he says that people who buy his records are not the same people who buy DJ Sammy's.

He does bring up a great point, though, in that trance is quite different than most of van Dahl's and Sammy's work. It's too bad that people consider these to be largely trance artists.

IvD in my opinion kicks ass... Yes, I admit it... I have nothing to hide... I love castles in the sky and Reason... Also, DJ Sammy kicks ass... He has some very good tracks... Just my opinion...

i think everybody has some cheese stashed away in their crate...even the almighty van dyk!!!!

i think you also have to look at the remixes...like "boys of summer"..the martin eyer mix and humate or both tight...and hardly resemble the original. "sunlight"..minimalistic rmx...had a wicked groove!!..i wish the would have just kept that breakdown with the synth's out!!

the lange rmx of "will i" is alrigt

most on here prolly got into trance from listening to chesse, but later found out how chessy and shitty it is!!...so maybe chesse does serve some type of service?

lol

that's because its a remix that turned a shitty song into gold... kinda like the Dumonde remix of Barthezz - On The Move (what was he thinking releasing that original track) ... hey if shitty music inspires a good producer to make some banging trance more power to them

Connected is the most overrated track of the year.

I agree with everything else though, other than Ian van Dahl always being cheesy..

as much as i agree with PVD about the cheesy artists who make a quick dollar at the expense of the genre, trance, i think he needs to look at himself. He hasn't been creative lately and from hearing samples of Reflections were disappointing. All the other big names are busy mixing, remixing and producing at top quality except for PVD (and fCorsten as well). The same kick with 4 strings isn't pushing trance in any direction
