hahahaha...thank you!!


seriously...lets just list all the trance songs that we'd list in any other listing type thread...



you guys want some sad melancholy beautiful type songs...you need to dig into some downtempo...

hmm I really love sad emotional tracks as well and most of your picks here are certainly good. I wanna add some.

System F - Solstice (Back in the days [2000 I think] where Slinky was a top club and on a night that Armin and Ferry [at top form] were playing together I asked this from Ferry and he played it straight away. That was probably the very first time [and one of the few] that I actually felt...ehm ...ecstacy.)
Altituted - Night Stalker (Chris Raven Remix) (Absolutely wonderful)
Armin - Communication (Armin's best ever)
Kuffdam & Plant - Seduction (The Level Above Mix) (SOOOO SAD)
2 Players - Signet (Plastic Angel Mix)
Midway - Inca
Cass & Slide - Glad I Ate Her (Original Mix)
Signum - Second Wave (Original Mix) (In my book probably the best trancer ever...well hard to say really but it's definetely up there)
adgio for strings (you can't deny it, and the fred baker version rocks)
Darren Tate Vs. Jono Grant - Let The Light Shine In
Ferry Corsten - sweet sorrow (album extended mix) (I like all versions but this is probably the sadest)
Jas van houten - heaven's gate (katana remix) (I'm a HUGE fan of Randy Katana but when I first heard this I wasn't THAT impressed. About a month after I heard it played live by Tiesto in Thessaloniki/Greece and had a completely different effect on me since)
kamaya painters - cryptomnesia (i'm actually listening to the tracks I'm proposing and I think I'm gonna slice my wrists in the end!)
Leama - Requiem For A Dream (Leama Dream Mix) (don't get me started on the progressive ones. lots of sad tunes there)
Lustral - Everytime (Nalin & Kane Mix) (psssssss goosebumbs)
M.I.K.E. - Sunrise At Palamos (If it wasn't for this guy I don't know where trance would be today)
Mekka - Diamondback
Moon Project - Moments Are Forever (M.I.K.E. again)
Mogwai - Hunted By A Freak (Attention Deficit Remix) (Did this ever actually get a realese??)
Oliver Prime - Velvet Sunshine (almost all of this guys productions and sets are fantastic and have a very sad mood)
P.G.L. - Sunshine
Plastic Boy - Silver Bath (yet again)
Pulser - My Religion
Push - Strange World (and again)
Rank 1 Feat. Shanokee - Such Is Life (The deep dub was so ahead of it's time, one of the earliest techtrance tunes)
Three drives - Sunset on Ibiza (What A classic!)
Three Drives - Carrera 2
The Digital Blonde - Electra (The Digital Blonde RULES)
The Digital Blonde - Legato
Arc In The Sky - Vainqueur
Tony Walker - Fields Of Joy (Flutlicht Mix)
Yahel - Voyage (A proper voyage or trip if you like)
Yoji Biomehanika - Ding A Ling (DJ Scot Project Remix) (Well this is very bangin indeed but that melody...the synth is crying there)

...and many many more

If you're looking for new ones try these:
Visior & Dark Moon - Hidden Sun
Vivid - Love Again (Dark Moon Remix)

Indeed. Not much trance is sad. Its too happy to be sad.
Try my fav online radio station Soma FM.
Try Groove Salad, Drone Zone, or Beat Blender.

good idea for a thread indeed

my contributions: (so far), more to come

D-Fuse ft. Jes - Everything With You (Club Mix)

Originally posted by djmetatron I totally agree with you on the themes thing. I love sad music, I find it to be the most beautiful. At the risk of sounding like a spammer, my mixes are always theme'd to an extent, at least I try for them to be. Embalm is probably my best example of a more meloncholly theme'd set. Maybe they aren't your style, but I hope you check a couple of them out.

WOW
Very smooth mix. Sounds like it could be on Oslo Nights.
