i think everything its a cycle.. if you know/read up after your favorite producers/dj you'll find a common pattern. they all started because they didn't like how the music was changing in their times. so they did something about it. are you?

thats why i bought my turntables. i said fuck it, i know my style.

Yeah it's a great lineup... for any other event.

Trance Energy has always been hands in the air, balls to the walls, high energy Trance. From the opening DJ to the last track played.

That EXECUTE stage is ummm, not trance at all.

And judging by the lineup on the PLAY stage, I doubt any of them will be playing much trance either.

Never heard of Kutski.

And that's supposed to be Lange, not Long.

Yeah I've been thinking the same thing. The thing is, Trance Energy has such a following, that people just automatically know it's that time of year, and/or are waiting for it to be announced, and it had that special feeling from being around so long, and having shitloads of it's livesets spread around the 'net.

People come from all over the world to Trance Energy, and the hype starts really early. This new party is "just another event" now, and most of the people giving negative feedback, are the same people that are usually hyping the hell out of it.

So I wonder if changing the event is going to eliminate a lot of the internationally crowd that doesn't want to spend a grand or two for "just another party."

I really haven't seen any positive response from people that actually attend the event.

Man I hope this party flops.

Plus there's already an "Energy" in Switzerland.

Like I've been saying in other threads, the problem with "Energy" is that it's no longer a signature festival with a specific theme.

Now it's another clone festival where the promoters try to 'expand' their audience by bringing in a variety of acts, but the result is a festival that's similar to everything else. Everyone is trying to do the "we're gonna cover all bases" thing. And it's pretty fucking boring IMO.

There are a million other big festivals you can go to if you want to hear electro/house/techno. But there was only one big event you could go to if you wanted to hear trance: Trance Energy. And with the renaming of the brand and lineup revealed, ID&T has killed the niche they created.

First...im so sad t.nu is gone. I dont even have words!!!


Second, the complaining about TE is driving me nuts. It was never all trance to begin with. And the line up now is decent imo and im a trance brat. People need to take a moment and realize that not only is music involved but money. end of story.


either go, or dont- but nothings really changing all that much.

In regards to t.nu, it's not the first site to go down....

A lot is going on behind the scene's in the music media industry. Much of it has to do with the economy and website administration processes. Unfortunately I have experienced the same situation myself in recent months.


Many of them work in one of the following ways:

Site pays for hosting, and requests donations to keep it going from members.

Site gets advertisers, and uses this money to pay their hosting fee's and/or contributors.

The end result is.... no paid advertising = no income = no resources to pay your team = no more team or you are left with whatever volunteers you have left afterward so you experience a decline in content.

Teams which are 100% volunteer can keep running since the staff was never paid in the first place as long as the site owner continues to pay the hosting fee.

There are also sites that are proven in their success like TA, and other sites which are related to a magazine or other publication are still solid and will likely always be.

sadly tommie and kevin didnt really have the time anymore from what i understand as well. and with twan leaving it was pretty obvious something like this was going to happen.....

i wonder if the removal of the trance.nu stage at Energy has anything to do with either the closing of the site or the removal of "trance" ???

PS many people have gone to tommie and asked to purchase there are a ton of us willing to help as well and always have....but its a no go. I just hope someone can come to some sort of agreement before it is too late.


at the very least that site currently houses a wealth of information not to mention a LOT of our time and energy went into articles, threads, arguments, educating people ect ect on that site and it would be a shame for people in the future to no longer have the resource

Look what happened to Sensation, it used to have a lot of trance DJs'. Also, remember "Innercity" party back in the days ? Its crazy why would they change Trance Energy to "Energy". TranceEnergy is (or was) such a unique party, why change such a GOOD concept? i'm still in shock
