Don't you think that '99 are coming back in '03 ?
even I am finding myself in listening more & more to uplifting & melodic trance for the past month. (don't get me wrong but I still listen to tribal & prog music) There are alot of quality uplifting stuff out there
What's up with that?
What do you think all , is it just me or you also think so ?!

In a way yes
99 was a great year for music
03 I think is better tho. Much more quality in tunes

it definitely seems that theres a lot of quality trance around atm... a bit more diversity than there has been for a while!
but i think 99 will always be the best year for me!

I dfenitely agree here! I opened a similiar thread in the Germany forum, and that was even BEFORE being @ Tiesto in Concert. Now im fully convinced that uplifting trance is experiencing a huge renaissance; its more sophisticated and perhaps a bit harder but carries the same euphoria and happiness as those 99' classics! As a matter of fact I find myself listening to progressive less and less again. Just shows how I used prog to compensate the lack of quality trance in the last 2-3 years. Not that prog is bad, but I've got my priorities

i've never regarded '99 trance as uplifting, i've always thought that it had its year(s) more in 2000/01
to me, listening to oakies world tour em's, the trance in 99 was deep and a little dark, yet still powerful and driving. it was simple yet also complex, and it had all the power and emotion that makes trance good. there were definately some good uplifting tracks around then, but i think that became the prelude to 2000/01 where uplifting really became big.

I think the quality of the tracks are approaching the quality of those in '99, but the current tracks have a much different sound from all the monsters of '99. I think trance has a softer side now than it did in '99.
