I'd guess 90% of people who will ever start listening to EDM begin with listening to trance (modern day McTrance/the cheesier kind, that is), the rest start out with some form of house (commercial funky house... you know, the MoS stuff). Ever checked out the discogs.com forums, or even littledetroit.net? Those people know their stuff, I mean really, they know their shit. They have intelligent discussions, I can't say much of that goes on here. And guess what; they don't listen to trance. They've been around for a long time. I expect some n00bs to reply with "you're a twat" when they don't understand what I'm saying. Sigh.

well its impossible to have intelligent discussion with "elitist whores" like yourself.

And yes you are a twat, but hey as you said in another thread, its only the internet.

Atleast I explain myself when I wanna get my point across. I don't go saying "Trance sucks", then give no reason for me believing that. Though maybe I should, since none of you seem to listen anyway.

Originally posted by Cobalt Hi there! I understand what you're saying. Trance is in the can, crap, pants, etc. these days. But I'll be there to the bitter end, because art has a way of renewing itself.

well put


i feel that if i listen to only one genre i get bored after a while, dosen't mean the genre is crap now....and even if trance has not evolved in some time, does that take away the feeling you got when you listened to the old stuff? Trance will never be dead it will just slow down untill someone comes along and uses it in a new way. I really hope that in 10-20 years i don't hear people calling the now new prog and such tracks 'cheese' (hate that term) and raving about how mature and sophisticated the new popular styles are. But that's how i suppose music has been forever

The problem with trance is everything has been done before, i mean like 5 years ago you heard some original killer tune and it was great for ages and ages,

Now you here a killer tune it stays with you for about what 10 mins lol nah a week or so and its boring

Trance is just going through a small phase where it has to revitalise itself to something new


Also another problem is people like Special C and Motorbike and people like that getting air play and stuff, here in the UK its hard to find a shop that sells Vinyl or CD for Trance, you only find Dj Samey and Blue Zone and crap like that

Hnn...

I've had a number of sabbaticals from the whole trance genre over the years but it wasn't really due to a growing distaste for it. Rather, when I start to hear similarily structured material dominate albums, compilations, and DJ mixes for a period of time, it gets boring fast. I had one such period of trance-rest when the early 90's sound was dying out, where I ended up checking out what else the EDM world had to offer (just in time for the 'electronica' boom! ). I had another around 2002, when the anthems were just getting redundent. Yet I keep coming back to the fold and have fun with a little catch-up. Whatever had initially piqued my interest in trance way back when I first heard Dance 2 Trance's We Came In Peace is still there -I just need a break from it every so often as well.

It may be a cliche but variety really is a most delicious spice.

Firstly,

WHat the Fuck is an elitist?


Secondly,
Trance is a changing genre, what that means is, that it will change.

In any change there will be some against it and some for it.

Some ppl will always say, "oh, this new shit, is shit". THey will be the ones that may drop off, assuming, they never start liking it. YEt, there will be others who will love and embrace teh new style more-so. And so... we gain fans...

Trance is always dying, but as long as it grows at the same pace... it's OOOKKKK....

an example of this is when a DJ changes his style, for whatever reason. Look at Tiesto. No doubt he has a new style. What theat means for him, is that shitloads of Tiesto listeners for ages have started dropping off, and stopped listening to him. Yet, so many ppl love him more, and so many ppl have started appreciating trance becasue of him.

This is all clearly evident on TA.

Yeah trance is shit! I'm gonna go listen to Linkin Park & Greenday!
