how did this turn into a 'hate thread' .. i thought the topic was about being the only tranceaddict in town .. there are many edm lovers here in new orleans. sadly, they all follow the mainstream stuff, like darude, alice deejay, sylver, oakenfold stuff ('ready set go', 'hypnotised' .. etc ...), and etc etc .. nobody really listens to the good stuff that is not mainstream radio ..

Hell no, there are plenty of trance fans where I live (about 15 miles from Sheffield, hello Gatecrasher).

And although many of my friends think trance is what you find on Clubland, all of them enjoy it. Even one of my friends who is a massive punk rock and ska fan enjoys trance.

before i left for university, everyone in my hometown thought of trance music as "that techno crap" which sounds like "a broken record"...disgusting...if people like that would just take the time to actually LISTEN to the song rather than criticize it...i get very frustrated at times

my problem exactly, however if i were to say come were off to gatecrasher to see armin van buuren theyd be like who? wheres ultrabeat playing? grrr, anyway i think here in england proper trance gets no where near enough coverage, i i wish it had enough coverage so that ppl will go and buy a magik album instead of clubland extreme but thats not gonna happen, so i live with it. oh and that track close to the edge by solex, my mate sed to me the other week have you heard this its so good ect ect. i replied the following..
a) iv been listening to that for ages so yes i have heard it and...
b) it sounds like the sick lovechild of jurgen vries
this just proves my point exactly he would have heard it ages ago if proper trance got more coverage
