Just curious, what kind of trance do you like? What kind of trance music has this emotion that you speak of? What artists and DJs are you referring to.

Thanks for the welcoming comments. I see I have angered the beat thumpers. No longer will I visit this site. My musical intrests are not that of yours and clearly your rudeness is something that comes with the modern day society. My post was about feelings I clearly stated that in the subject. I cant tell you what to like and nor can you. So why be so belligerent towards me? Clearly im not welcome here and say what you want after this post. I sure as hell wont read it. Bye Bye
Piss off, you haven't even discovered the good versions of trance
A lot of acid techno is very classic trancey as is tribal/prog house. Let alone trance wasn't really that trancey and quality post 95. Theres plenty of quality stuff, you haven't even begun to look hard enough.

Trance just isn't that great of club music. Go to some actual raves and you'll hear it.
Or if you are home listener, dig a little and you'll find loads of shit being produced all the time.
Don't worry mang, trance is pretty much the newest genre of music on the planet. It takes a while for stuff to become stable.

Uk garage 98ish I believe?
dubstep 2001/02 ish I believe?
Psy 97/98?
Goa 03?
Minimal 98?
Progressive 95?
All newer? Plus there's plenty that are around the same time. Those years are probably vastly wrong, however its by no means the newest genre. Hell house and techno have only been around since mid 80s.

The name of this site is tranceaddict, however, I find more discussion about other electronic music (house, techno etc.) all of which I despise. The reason for my complete disliking of these other variants of electronic music is simple; Trance has made such a profound impact on my life unlike any other form of music. I have found Trance in particular to be very emotional and inspiring, unlike any other form of music I have ever listened to. From my stance. These other variants of electronic music lack emotion. It seems as if they are more "beaty" and boxy and more repetitive than trance. I almost get the feel im listening to hip hop or even some old jazzy bit when I listen to these other variants of electronic music. It affects me greatly to see this transition taking place between the once popular trance from the late 90's to early 2000s into a more "beaty" boxy music movement. I find so many House, Progressive and Techno songs are ever so similar beyond just the base beat. Trance seems to require more skill in making for surely I can put together a beat and some off set chord with ease and try to make it big. What we need is more creativity and less conforming. Less followers and more innovators. Until that Im afraid Trance will continue to decline and we will see our music becoming much like politics of today's society-full of zombies.

I said "pretty much"
also:
uk garage fits into house
psy is a sub-genre of trance & it emerged at the same time (early 90s) - don't believe me, look up pioneers of the warped groove
goa? look above - only a psy/goa freak like you thinks it is a completely separate deal
minimal is techno
depending on what fucked up definition of progressive you have, it fits into other categories of edm easily
also trance basically comes right from techno. the early releases were all called "techno"
let's not kid ourselves here
it's all the same fuckin music, it all came from disco, and it's extremely recent.
by your reasoning you should be including electrohouse/mashup/blah blah blah
dubstep is a pretty good answer, that shit is fresh, but in my opinion it's just a weird crossbreed of garage and d&b slowed way down. not entirely new.
like none of it is new -
what differentiates trance is that it takes from everything and doesn't give a shit about defining itself.
