1998! Loads of AMAZING (now 'classic') tunes were made in this year.

I can't believe there are more votes for 2000 than 1997. 1997 was the year and 2000 was the decline of trance.

Sorry I have to agree.. 1999 all the way.. I got into trance in 1998.. o.o
1999:
Delerium - Heaven's Earth (matt darey remix)
Storm - Love is Here to Stay (blank & jones remix)
Gouryella - Gouryella
And others mentioned already.. 2000 comes in close second for me.. don't get me wrong.. there are some tunes before that.. but I grew up with trance these 2 years.. that makes the impact bigger..

it is definitely 98-99. i mean every year has amazing releases, but nothing can compare to the massive influx of new listeners and the scene taking off from the underground and into the public eye. definitely these 2 years.

For me it was the first year I started listening to it, 99. I think trance was at its best from 99 till mid 2000. Style has changed up a bit, going more toward uplifting progressive and progressive but there are still a few good tunes out there. There are just too many artists out there trying to bite off each other tunes and taking advantage of the music industry. Its reached to a point where its starting to sound all the same, and there are fewer songs that stand out. Thats why to me 99 stands out. The other day I was searching for a tune from 99 called Project A - Angelhair, but instead I found The Arrival by the same artist. I listened to RA clip and man did this bring back memories of 99 style trance. I was so hyped up about this tune I sent the RA clip to all my trance buddies, and they couldnt agree with me more.....
I take my Trance 99 and only club temperature thank you. I think the matter is settled. 99 by far. Not that it has gone bad since but 99 was the big bang of the trance universe man. things just escalated from there. Thank God for Ferry Corsten and the rest of the Dutch massive.
Bring back '99.eeemmmm,ok
thinks:"or maybe the pills were better?"

I went for 1999... it aint dubbed as the year of trance for nothing! Tho this year, there have been lots of really good tunes released, so 2001 would be it's closest rival!
