ok here you go:
different eras have different sounds
the trance that I grew up on, the '96-'00 sounds of oakey and van dyk, is indeed dead.
this period, ie 2000-present is the era of prog- sasha, sander, zabiela, etc
maybe soon trance will make a comeback but it won't be the '96-'00 sound, maybe it will complete its progressive transformation through guys like markus schultz, or maybe van dyk will get his head out of his ass and stop his commercial bullshit
some gendres however just keep on plugging and have stayed pretty consistent... i feel that techno hasn't changed that much since '99, at least carl cox's sound has stayed pretty level
whatever the next era of dance music holds in store for us, you can be sure that it will be led by Sasha. he holds all the keys!
