The point they miss is that tech-house uses these elements because they suit the mood; when used with trance they just sound ridiculous.

if you listen to old old trance (like circa 1992-96ish) youll find that a lot of the percussion in the old classics is very similar - maybe dated but still similar - and its trance

Excellent production.

Yes, similar to Adrenaline... but Adrenaline was / still is a great dance floor bomb. Purple Haze guise is pretty reliable for dark moody stuff!

While there are some trance tracks out there that may fit into what you describe, this isn't one of them. Did you even listen to it? This is a trance track, pure and simple. Its a good one too as are all the Purple haze productions because of the moody melody, great percussion and excellent groove.

Absolutely nothing tech-house about this nor does it in anyway sound like its trying to be..

Originally posted by Paradox Lost Interesting, I recall reading in an interview last year (that was posted here) that SVD had intended to abandon his production aliases, and just release everything under 'Sander van Doorn.'

I read that, too. It may appear funny, but he has probably realized he is popular enough to finally release a track under one of his aliases. I like that track from the very first listen and couldn't agree more with what Damerchi wrote.

Decent tune indeed. Nice to see some producers are still making listenable trance.

Yeah, I'm pretty much done with trance but every now and then someone like Doorn delivers.

No.

Old trance has energy. This has a 1-2-1-2 groove which just doesn't work well.

Okay, so people seem to like the fact that this tune is dark and yet still uplifting.

Try this one instead:

It has a proper bassline and decent percussion.

Purplze Haze has always been hes best alias.
Pretty good tune for todays low standards.

Not a bad track. Nothing really mind blowing either, but decent nonetheless (unlike 99,9% of trance today).
