yeah i wouldn't put it on my list either. i mean its a classic track and has influenced a lot in the genre, but not one of my personal favs either...

I wouldn't include airwave either to be honest im not sure how it got to be so big really. Also the fact that both vocals are aweful.

ps. I did buy the cd single can't say i like it that much now tho.

rank 1 did better ..

Baby D - Let Me Be Your Fantasy (Rank 1 Remix)
York - Reachers Of Civilization (Rank 1 Remix)

and the other tracks after airwave

in trance energy 2001 intro for rank1, the mc dude introduces rank1 as the heroes of 'last years' biggest hit airwave..i doubt they would have gotten to where they are without the tune. granted both are top notch producers.


now its cheese..how things change.



i still respect airwave..king kong aint got nothing on it.

Look, it didn't make the list because I don't like it. Don't get offended just because my tastes differ to yours.

Nice list.
I, honestly, couldn't make a personal top 100.
Main problem is lack of experience with trance, seeing how I'm listening to it for maybe 2 years.
I don't even have 100 tracks that are my favorites for real. And I wouldn't want to force it.

As for Papua New Guinea, I think it's alright, but I (kind of) found it a bit boring.

i'm not saying airwave should rank at the top of your list. what i'm saying is that any respectable top 100 edm tracks of all time would have to have it in there somewhere. btw where is gouryella, 'for an angel', 'out of the blue' and 'carte blanche? u obviously are not a big fan of classic uplifting trance in general.

It will click one day im sure, try the marco v remix for now. Might be too much of a 'shock' to go from tunes (c)200x to (c)1991, if you never heard the original before.

jay - z - 99 problems? im not gonna argue that hip hop isn't EDM because it is...but out of all the hip hop songs out there you choose an average track from jay-z? he's made far better songs than that

well that's just it isn't it. this isn't a top 100 of what the majority thinks...its a personal one.

Fuck Airwave. It has no meaning! But if you take Day Time (4 Strings), Airwave`s biggest competition at the time, you can tell that altho Day Time might not be as appealing/exciting as Airwave, it has much more meaning and was WELL thought out.

But anyway, this list is good!!! I don`t see ANY Belgian trance tho, not surprising. Do you like any? lol. Minimalistix - Close Cover? Sylver - Turn The Tide? Both classics!

Why don't you make your own top 100 instead of complaining about SYSTEM-J's? Just because you like Airwave doesn't make it the best trance track ever that "everyone needs in their list". Accept it.
