Bottom line the mainstream trance isnt as pure anymore.Most of it sounds the same and it is getting harder and harder to find a track that you ll remember 2 months from now.That wasnt the case a few years back. |
Few years back it was also not as congested with track release flow. We started getting hammered with all kinds of garbage around 2001 and up. From 1993 to around 1999, I could ID any track thrown at me, as there wasn't that much trance to remember.
I know you're a hardcore psy fan, and I can tell you're passionate about what you say about generic club trance, and how hard it is to find a good record lately, but you gotta admit, the ratio of good stuff to garbage is psy release scene is about the same. 95% pure crap. It is all over the music scene. I still find some goodies once in a blue moon, but nothing that lasts. It is either the scene is not the same, which obviously it isn't for many reasons, or someone is getting old 
p.s. One of the old albums that I still bring up as reference material is the first album by Scooter from 1993, and is the landmark time for me getting into trance. Got it at good old Fresh Records on St.Clair(whats Lou up to these days?) For 1993, the sound could not have been better developed, and years later most trance artists could not do better. The music was so intelligently done, it made German techno sound stupid. I was mesmerized, and then understood the true meaning of "trance". That was real trance, and with second album release and on, it just got worse and worse, and by album #4 or so, it became total fluff. Oh, and Platipus Records stuff was also ahead of its time.

It is not about the shit vocals and it sure isnt about this electro/minimal garbage that we have now either.
