I know why a track is labeled as cheese, my question is how many people stop liking it because its overplayed? A great example i guess is rapture, last year everyone talked soo much about it, and it was like #3 in single of the year votes here, now people say its horse shit doesnt make sense to me

d00d, what are you talking about

if you don't like it, don't listen to it.. go and listen to the good trance. there is tonz of wikked trance singles/livesets out right now.

QUIT using the ghey word CHEESEY

I think some of you have missed the point.
I agree with Acid Circus. Stuff like Flip & Fill, Kelly Lorenna etc is included on 'Trance Nation' or 'Addicted To Trance' and it is not trance music at all. Its pop music for young kids. To include it on a trance compilation just ruins the reputation of proper trance music.
These producers are just creating a simple melody, adding a cheesy vocal, et voila, a hit is assured. It's easy and it makes them money so why should they stop??
But to call it trance is wrong.

Mon opinion!

No, Altitude does not usually remix cheese, but neither does Flutlicht, and they remixed Will I. Both those remixes are good, though, and not cheese in my opinion, even though the originals were cheesy.

Anyway, what I think the basic problem here, is that many people are calling certain music "trance" when it is not really trance. MoS is a major culprit here. It's annoying, but you can't really blame them, they're only trying to make money, and it works.

hmmm cheese trance is still trance.... oh and there is no such thing as a genre called "cheese trance" =) but i see your point.... but its just a matter of a song being over played. if you dont like it then dont listen to it.... stick to progressive or harder stuff.... no one is force'n any of us to listen to it so.... lets just put this thread to rest.

Some of you guys have got what I was attempting to get out with my original message.

For those guys who tell me not to listen to it if I don't like it, well I don't listen to it! I can't avoid it if I am checking a big batch of tunes, its annoying to me to have to listen to so much rubbish to get but a few good tunes. Too many producers are taking the easy route out by sticking the most cringe-worthy vocals on top of their tunes.

Also, as I try to promote a new night in Glasgow I cannot call it a trance night, although thats what it is. Too many club bosses and punters who we have told "its a new trance night" just avoid us like the plague. The name has been muddied beyond repair I'm afraid.

This really isn't a new phenomenon. Would you really consider "Alice Deejay - Better off Alone" as trance? I sure as hell wouldn't (with the exception of the Signum remix). And yet that's what a lot of people were calling it. That stuff is no different than N'Sync or Britney etc... (except for the smaller marketing budget) Pure Pop. Catchy vocals that all the drunk girls can remember at the bar.

It's cheese because you don't like it in your opinion. Hell, it's CHEESE to me too! But they're doing this to market to the mainstream, to suck them into the real good shit!
That's how I see it. I mean when you first heard Trance, was it not cheesy mainstream/commercial material?
The CD that turned me onto Trance and into investigation for better music was a lot of the "Trance" Compilations sold in CD stores. Like "The Element of Zen" and The Crystal Method and Global Dance shit. This was back in 98. But very soon I learned what quality trance was and listened to better stuff.
