sander van doorn definitely plays a good mix of house and trance..which is tolerable and quite enjoyable.

Hey, at least include my quote about thinking the song is crap! Now people are gonna think I posted it because I liked it. D:

Originally posted by DaveT Wow, I was way off. It was his July one. And I must've been drunk or somethign when I listened to it becuase looking at the tracklist, it's not really filled with many classics. He did play his recon of Yilmaz Altanhan - Eighties, though. Was one of my favorite tracks of 2005!

haha no worries. you made a good point about djs playing classics in longer sets- i love it. i downloaded markus' set closing amnesia in 2009 - 7 hours or so with a good selection of classics mostly featured in the end of the set. god i'd love to spend that amount of time at a club in ibiza and as the suns coming up hear the dj drop beachball

these threads are always good for many many laughs. i tip my hat to you threadstarter... trance people trying to wrap their heads around house music will always be funny as shit. by the way, when's the last time someone produced a trance track anyway? all i've ever heard from so-called "trance" producers these last several years is eurodance.

Ok, I'll admit I really dig this track.

I still like trance more, though. To me, house is about primal instincts like dancing, sweating, and watching women's bodies move.

Trance, on the other hand, spurs my imagination and makes me think of things not even remotely related to dancing. It's music to listen to when you're staring at the ceiling with the headphones on, and to me that makes it much better.

I know everybody thinks they're similar, but they really aren't all that similar. I'd say trance has more in common with new age music than house, honestly. It's dreaming music set to a beat, whereas house is pure dancing music.

EDIT: There are always exceptions, though. Tech house has a lot of dreamy elements to it, and is honestly closer to progressive trance than it is mainstream house.

Thanks, I'm glad you noticed this. My first line and final lines are clear indicators of where I wanted this thread to go. It's part troll and part serious. Kind of hard to explain actually. Everyone knows I like to

I was going to delete the thread earlier (just to piss people off and be a jackass), but I didn't because I liked where the thread was going.

It wouldn't be funny anymore if I did, earlier during the discussion it would have been more appropriate.

Isn't this the point of Electronic DANCE Music?

Hence the name "trance." I think it's more about getting lost in one's mind than it is about dancing.

I don't know what tech house you're listening to. Perhaps you're confusing prog house with tech house?

I knew right when you posted this that you were on to something good. TA has been boring lately. We need a good conversation or argument every now and then. I especially like how Bas chimes in from time to time. The old man is really checking up on us to make sure we're behaving.

As for house music > trance music. thats a tough call and hard to explain what defines house.

I asked on another thread whats the difference between Armin or Ferry or Tiesto or PvD. They all sounded the same to me. Nobody answered. People just said they were different. I could only imagine that it was tough to explain.

Do what i do. Drink a loooottttt of booze, fat rail and a good pill. Then you'll have a good time... even to gabber
