Neo-trance? Someone explain!

I also think 2006 was a great year for House, some massive tunes out. And yea, 2006 definately was the year of the digital.

It's been explained, but to re-iterate:

Neo-trance is an offshoot of the 'minimal' techno camps that bares similarities to what trance sounded like in the early 90s. Simple, loopy, hypnotic stuff that is concerned about creating atmosphere rather than bludgeoning you with big synths and redundant breakdowns.

I only know a certain amount of tracks from 06, but to tell you the truth, I think 06 was a pretty decent year for EDM.

I listened to trance, hardstyle, house, techno, tek-house and a little bit of old rock through the year.

2007 expects to be more of a surprise.

What is the name of this tune?

This year is definiately the year for Funky House Music. I really think Funky House Music will really take off in 2007 with more 80's sythn-pop remixes.

As far as Trance wise, the big guys like Armin and Ferry are doing okay. It really the new middle class such as Kyau vs Alber, Stoneface and Terminal, Menno De Jong, Sean Tyas, Robert Nickson, Thomas Datt, Thomas Bonzwaez pushing the new Trance sounds. And lets not forget Airwave who did a 3 cd album this year and as well as 2 singles for velvet girl. Big props for Airwave, keep the melodic progressive scene alive. As far as Progressive Trance, meh.

And finally lets not forget Topher Jones and Blake Jarelle bootleg of Chasing Cars. Big Props to both of you guys. Awesome remix....

The cringe worthy moment for me!

Hearing people singing along to it made me leave the floor.

Hope not so, 2006 was the worsest year for house since it was invented. Always liked house, but I think I bought only 1 house tune this year and that was in january. Hope that this fuckinn funky house is going to die soon, so we can concentrate on well-made house tunes with good vocals, pianos & organs!!!!

But no problem everything apart from house was fine this year in EDM.

Hmm.. really curious to see him this Friday.. Never really been into him but as my tastes broadened significantly over the past few months, it might just go down very well.
