Oddly I've written a few posts mentioning p2p progs and they get censored off...

thats strange

I think a better way to get into real trance is to listen to live dj sets by real trance djs! :P

I would recommand alot of artists like PvD, Ferry, Armin and Tiesto. PvD - Mayday 2000 and Enegry 2003, Ferry Corsten Live @ Spundae, LA (I have the CD/DVD ) and Tiesto's Enegry 2000, Club Space 2002 and Magik 6.

Three tracks I love would be Binary Finary - 1998, Three Drives - Carrera 2 and Delerium - Silence (DJ Tiësto's ISoS Remix)

I live in a town of 4400 people who listen to Shania Twain and think that Armen Van Buren is a wrestler... the big city (TORONTO) is 4 hours away.
Got any other bright ideas?

Since your new to electronic music i suggest you get a couple of tunes by the likes of glen wilson, adam beyer and henrik b.

then for seconds why not try sven wittekind with lahings of dj amok and a side serving of lars klein.

that should ease you in nicely

you're confusing the poor lad, let him ease in slowly, with more 'commercial artists' (im not bashing them before you lot start but he'll recognise the ferry's and such much more)

Above & Beyond would be a pretty good starting point for melodic/uplifting trance... used to listen to them a lot, still do for that matter.

Above & Beyond - Far From In Love (Airbase Remix)
Delerium - Underwater (Above & Beyond Remix)
Rollerball - Albinoni (Above & Beyond Remix)
Three Drives - Sunset On Ibiza (Above & Beyond Remix)

Or Armin Van Buuren...

Armin Van Buuren - Song For The Ocean
Iio - Rapture (Armin Van Buuren Remix)
Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes (Armin's Universal Religion Mix)
Perpetuous Dreamer - Sound Of Goodbye (Armin's Tribal Feel)
Solid Sessions - Janeiro (Armin Van Buuren Remix)

Hang out in the forums, you'll notice a few names being mentioned quite often... Ferry, Tiesto, Armin, PVD, Oakenfold... get a few of their remixes/tunes, check out what they play in their livesets and so on... you'll have this whole trance thing down in no time.

Oh, and a must for listening to trance: get a player with pitch control, Traktor or PCDJ or sth... some tracks you just don't get until you play them loud at +7%.

Some good advice ... Here's what I've learned after being immersed for lil over one week in your suggestions.

Tiesto is comin' along... I like his remix stuff better than his own work for now.
Bangalter & Falcon didn't mix "Call On Me"!!! (That choon kix my ass all night!!!)
Gabriel & Dresden make wicked versions so go for them first if you can
mp3's from the internet suck...usually tagged wrong.
The niche I currently favour is called Dream trance but I swing to Epic and Anthem Trance as well. There are too many sub-genres.
Everyone here thinks DJ Sammy is cheese!
James Holden - Nothing kinda grows on you. KINDA.

Thanks to this community for all of its kind efforts.
This site is newb freindly!
