Step 1.Borrow Cream Live 2 from a friend just cos the plain white embossed plastic package lookes cool.
Step 2. Buy Cream Anthems '97 the following christmas and hammer the Paul Oakenfold disc.
Step 3. Go to Cream on 28.03.98 to see Paul Oakenfold play as resident in the legendery Courtyard. Playing tunes such as;
Y Traxx "Mystery Land"
Mansun "Wide Open Space" perfecto mix
Tile vs. Paul Van Dyk "Rendezvouz"
Armin "Blue Fear"
Transa "Enervate"
CJ Bolland "The Prophet"

You are now officially a TranceAddict

Kevin & Perry go large lol

But my first album cd was Robert Miles - Dreamland when I was 11 ! I think I have this music in my blood but in France it's impossible to listen to trance!!in the preview of the movie there were two cuts :
lange ft the morrighan - follow me
sunburst - eyeball
It reminds me BBE - 7 days 1 week/flash ... so good !!
Now I'm totally addicted to trance...I think this is my drug.

Tranceaddict: PvD - Forbidden Fruit

Houseaddict: John Creamer and Stephane K - I Wish You Were Here (Lexicon Avenue Mix)

Breaksaddict: Ficta - Eli (Zabiela Rave Lizard Mix)

Originally posted by davepiazza the very very first dance music I ever heard was bad boy bill on the radio in Chicago in late 80s. I was like 7 or 8 years old and from then on I was always interestedin Dance Music. In the mid 90's I started to like euro cheese because of of a DJ here in Chicago by DJ Markski started to introduce me to Euro Dance. I was like 16. I think I got tired of euro dance and thought it was cheesy when I discovered Paul van Dyk on a Euro Dance webnsite. I rember the site actually, it was www.eurodancehits.com they review euro cds and for some reason Paul van Dyk was one of those Cds reviewed. The Cd was Out there and Back. When I listened to it the first time I just remeber saying to myself this is the future of dance music not that cheese. His music really inspired me and made me wonder agian (like a child) how could someone make such beautiful music. I could feel emotions in each track different and more unique than those I previously found in euro dance. I never heard live sets from pvd ( I ddint have dsl) but bought all his production work. Naturally after dicovering PVD I found the other trance DJ's. I think Fery was next followed by Armin then tiesto. Because of my childhood experices and continous passion and love for dance music I found myself waqnting to become a DJ. It is only recently after I started to be a bedroom dj that I became a serious trance addict (i.e. following track lists, knowing artists and labels, knowing all those "newer" djs , etc.) I think dj'ing has made me more of a music freak.

Me too, I've been out of that loop on B96. Whatever happened to those mid90's mixmasters. Bobby D and Markski have been gone for quite a while. If it wasn't for Markski I might not still have any interest in music at all. The Armin Club Eau set along with some of Markski's Trance Cd's (Vol 19 esp.) converted me to Trance in 2000.

Magik 4 baby...one of my favorite mixes ever

My first major blow to the head was in a friends car listening to this dude called "Carl Cox" & the tune was Cygnus Xs "The Orange Theme". That was it, after that trance lead my life.

At first I really hated trance... Or well, I hated Darude, Ian van Dahl, Scooter and that crap on the radio, and I thought that was trance. So I decided that electronic music was crappy.
Then I started listening to Prodigy, and I liked what I heard. And I started playing EVE, that game has very good music And that's how I got into electronic music in general. This was around a year and a half ago.
Someone also sent me an ASYS track around that time and I loved it.

Then I started to listen to di.fm and downloaded some sets and tracks here at TA, and I got hooked. That was ~1 year ago, so I'm still kind of a newbie
