I doubt any genre of music will die a scene just re invents itself.

Anyone who posts on this site and asks if trance is dead is an idiot...HELLO THE WHOLE ENTIRE FUCKING SITE IS DEVOTED TO TRANCE.
Do you see websites with forums devoted to swing music. I think not.

In the underground trance scene it is still alive and kicking but looking at the charts its getting worse, and especially albums. This year there was no proper Euphoria, and a lot of major albums slipped a lot. There's been this annoying tendancy to look back at classic trance rather than focusing on the new stuff.
1999 and 2000 were great years, full of experimentation and chart success. 2001 dimmed slightly, but the music was more modern. If you look at 2002 all the big hits were remakes. The charts always reward originality in trance, so when Scooter's hardcore/trance crossover burst onto the scene, the charts lapped it up even if we hated it.
Anyway trance has been fairly major since 1996, so its seven years old now. If you look at rave and hardcore's domination in the early 90s it only lasted six years so we're living on borrowed time really. Soon a new style of dance will emerge and be the rage for a while.

Can you list off some of these hits?
Well there was Mauro Picotto with Pulsar 2002, Agnelli and Nelson with Everyday 2002, Traveller and In-Motion, the massive remix of Energy 52 by Marco V, then all the Ministry of Sound backed garbage like Flip and Fill which were all covers of early 90s happy hardcore tracks... A lot of others I can't quite bring to mind but I'd hear them, think finally an original release then find it was a re-release a month later.
