Totally agree except for that last part. There are some pretty uneducated people in here who dont know trance pre 99. Some of the so called classics really arent.

Some more to add that i cant believe havent been mentioned so far

Orbital - Belfast (1991)

FSOL - Papua New Guinea (1991)

Marmion - Schonenberg (Fuck knows 92/3?)

Orbital - Lush 3 (1993) - how this is has been left off, ten million times better than Halycon and the best trance record ever imo.

Jam & Spoon - Oddyssey to Anyoona (1993) - Better than the Age of Love or Stella imo.

Humate - 3.1 (1994/5?)

Sasha & Maria - Be As One (1995) - until Airdrawndagger, his best work. If ur after a true trance classic, this is it.

Chicane - Offshore (1995/6?)

HHC - We Are Not Alone (1996)

Paul Van Dyk - Forbidden Fruit (1996)

Freefall - Skydive (1997?)

Tilt - Rendezvous (1997)

K90 - Deliverance (1998)

Breeder - Twilo Thunder (1998)

Jose Amnesia - The Eternal (1999) - was 99, not 2001 as earlier stated.

Purple Haze - Genetic (1999)

Quivver - She Does (1999)

Sander Kleinenberg - 4 Seasons EP 1/3 (1999)

Nautious - Amber (1999)

The Thrilseekers - Synaethaesia (1999) - Probably my favourite modern trance record i think.

Bodyshock - Full Moon (1999)

Solid Sessions - Janeiro (2000)

Laurent Garnier - Man With The Red Face (2000) If ur gonna have Knights of the Jaguar down as trance, then u have to have this too. Techno really.

Shmeul Flash - Chilling Moments (2001)

Probably more, but thats all of the glaringly obvious ones that i can think of at the moment.


Classics are partly down to personal taste, but ur list is quite funny at the minute. A mix of obvious classics and some really average records.

hmm. i see gouryella and tenshi on the list, but what about walhalla?

just wanted to say that Mahadeva by Astral Projection has to be included..

Too Lazy to make a signature

Sorry, I was mistaken.. Yes, it's 1999.

Final Fantasy - I close my eyes (Techno club mix) (1998)
Junk Project - Control (Timebase remix) (1999)

faithless - don't leave (euphoric mix)




i think this should really be included! it's 1997, i think!

Hi People, here is the newest update. Thanks again to all who contributed to this list. And please don't debate about the issue if a track is a classic or not, I think it always depends on the listeners himself if he considers a track as a classic or not. Thatswhy I add every legitimate suggestion. thx
