i think the better question is, what are the similarities?

1. sometimes they are both all digitally created, not always though

i think that's all
im sure there are more similarities between trance and rap

actaully i thought RAiN had a lot of techno elemnts to it..

Breakdowns and builds? Naw, both genres have them. Heck, techno made ludicrous use of them back in the early 90's just as much as trance has in recent years.

Melodies? Techno's had them too. Strings Of Life, anyone? Again, it's only in recent years that techno shyed away from melody, more as a resentment to trance's over-abundence use of them than anything else.

Some might say that it's down to the drum programming, that techno tends to be more intuitive whereas trance has gotten very simplistic. This aruguement's a load of crock when you throw Oliver Lieb into the equation.

The only difference between trance and techno tends to be what made the two splinter in the beginning: atmosphere. Specifically spacey, heavenly, or euphoric elements tend to dominate trance and futuristic, robotic, distopian elements are common in techno.

Techno = More percussion, less melody
Trance = More melody, less percussion, loots of arpeggiation and gate effects

Other than that they're pretty similar...

ok, i think

trance has a gradual build up of layers of sound reaching a climax at some point and then just "building down" soon after that

techno builds up as well, but since there is little or no melody, there isnt really a climax so it ends up being pretty much flat all the wy through

thats just my opinion

edit> omg..two posts while i posted that :P

uhhh

Listen to like Deetron, or Patrik Skoog, maybe Ken Ishii, or maybe even hideyuki eto.

Then listen to "Generic Trance Artist"

I hope you notice a difference.
