If something really great doesn't come out till the end of 2002 then i think this is the worst year. Most of the tunes look similar to each other. And many guys who have no idea of what trance is, want to get into the indusrty.

for sure 2002, this is the problem: the trance becomes in a thing too commercial for many dj's, oakey and pvd for example...

99' was awesome. 00' sucked. 01' got a little better. 02' is going the right direction.

worst i dont know, since i have not much stuff from 90-95.
but the worst is 2001. imho

i heard 458[bc] was a bad year, too much of a tribal influence

2001 Was absolutely the worst year i can think of 2002 hit off correctly tho. 1999-2000 loved the progressive sounds of those times.

Originally posted by TimeportE agreed but also: 2002 not for the trance itself but for the direction it's heading!here in holland the whole trance scene is going commercial!! most trance tunes are on tv and a lot of stupid cheeze producers are totally ruining the scene!! dj sammie and gigi d'agostino are considered trance just because there have sythns in the tracks... pleeeeaaassse people are you really that ignorant.. it's just sooo annoying!! btw 2002 is the year of rip offs (commercially-like)!! but trance-like 2002 is quite good year, so far!

Yeah... A lot of the same styles tracks this year which is pissing me off!!!
