But now I have to ask: why is Above and Beyond, Tiesto and others like that so popular compared to John 00 Fleming? I think epic trance is really what killed it. I like Cosmic Baby though. He made some great tracks.

I was joking man.... Cosmic baby was keepin it real! Euro fag epic trance killed it.

As for modern day acid trance, check out Union Jack's latest album, Pylon Pigs. Also he did a guest mix in John 00 Flemings latest podcast.

They are more popular because its basically a competition of whos music is more magic, how many unicorns they can fit into their music videos, and how many candy kids they have putting their hands in the air jumping around like monkeys to determine who is the best trance DJ. Basically you as a DJ are rated on how lame and generic you can be. The more, the better. Horrendous trance diva spewing nonsense all over your cheesy super saw lead? Hit. Gigantic 3 minute buildup and breakdown? Hit. Electro pop fart bass with PLENTY of white noise? Hit.

The majority of modern trance listeners are to busy tweaking on meth tabs to know what good music is.

What is popular doesn't = good. Also they have a lot of followers who try to produce generic bland sounding tracks to get signed & it works. John's sound works because there are some good artists out there who can produce the sounds we're after and if it got mainstream popular it would lose a lot of what makes it special imo.

Try these out.

Die.

Not acid but Airbase i think it's pretty cool, his productions have still some old sound

Personally I find this anthem like melody sound very cheap, feels like an imitation.
I like the melody of Emotion more. Airbase - Emotion
Indeed they sound pre 2000.
