I have tried many many times to look for new stuff, but I feel like finding "good new stuff" can only come from people with some prestige experience in what's actually good and what's not--- one who can discern the two. Any time I find good new stuff, it's extremely rare to find, or other old school listeners show me it.

I'll have to do some much harder digging around, but thanks for showing those other tracks, I like those ones.

Originally posted by LoveHate I feel like trance will make a return this decade as far as being the leading genre in dance music you already see it happening

already been happening for 10 years, that's why the techno scene is full of maladjusted middle class twitter warriors. It's also why many clubs won't be able to open after covid, quite looking forward to it actually! Will separate the girls from the women and the men from the boys. bring back real dirty sexy industrial funk. I mean, trance was dead after 1994 anyway.

As much as i try, i know that i will always miss good music when looking for new releases, no matter what i do. It's a frustration that i have to learn how to deal with.

Thanks for these suggestions. Appreciate it.

Interesting. This one sounds like some of the trancier Gregor Tresher records of the late 2000s, or even a few softer mid-90s Belgian-German techno-trance records.

Blimey. Even Cobalt has come back.

Isolation

Here's one Ellen Allien was cranking out on her FB livestream the other night. I could certainly live without the Matrix sample, but otherwise it's like the last 25 years never happened:

Amazing. Sensing some 90s vibes here in Canada too, although BPM still lags a bit:







Maybe it's a trend
