hmm....I would think that cosmic gate would be more hard trance....IE:because of the bassline.....More layered heavy percussion and bass.....

Epic: has it's name because of the very melodic synth parts.....IE: something you would hear in the movie gladiator or something along those lines....big drowning synths...like a pipe organ....were one note is held for 16 even 32 bars.....like System F- solsitice or Dumonde- Never look back.....Alot heavier then uplifting...more dark, and layered......

Yes, but if u listen to some of Dumonde's other productions/remixes then u'll see why Twilogoddess put em' under hard trance.

umm...I never disagreed with Twilochick....I was just saying the difference between Uplifting and epic....it's a fine line really.....

[QUOTE Progressive trance has funky, subtle progression doesn't have strong driving melodies or heavy synths. ex: James Holden- Horizons. Joshua Ryan- Pistol Whip. Max Graham. Sasha- Expander

that's hilarious .. i remember perhaps a month ago .. some one used sasha - expander as an example of dream trance... i'm not saying your wrong ... (as i have no opionion on the subject.. ) i just find it entertaining how these discussions play.. that two people can use the same song as a typical example of a form of music.. just shows how much opionion differs on this forum (and especially on such unclear subjects as this.. )

cheers
Mike

I think its hilarious someone thinks Expander is Dream Trance.

Cool site, I didn't know the difference btween the music genres or styles. So this was very usefull. Thnx

Laterzzzzzz
