48 bars most trance has like 9 bar patterns that repeat? maybe key changes if your good at them but 9 bars always seemed enough to me

Processing a highly structured and complex pattern of sensory input as a unified percept of "music" is probably one of the most elaborate features of the human brain.....understanding how music is perceived and how it may elicit intense sensations is far from being understood.

oh that was me being a bit dumb! it's 4 lots of 8 bars.

I think learning about theory is more useful and natural if you supplement it with a lot of playing. Thinking about how it works is one thing, but actually feeling it as your hands execute the movements on an instrument is another.

I would also suggest trying to work out the chord progressions and melodies to your favorite tracks, and thinking about how they use the principles you are learning. One of the most interesting exercises for me has been to take a melody or chord sequence from a track, then change it at different points or try to develop it in a new direction, and think about why some things work and others don't.
