Gielen isn't hard trance.

Check out:
Armani & Ghost - Airport
Basic Dawn - Pure Thrust (Nu-NRG Remix)
DJ Slideout - Reflection (La Cargo Remix)
Flutlicht - Icarus (S.H.O.K.K. Mix)
Flutlicht - The Fall (Deep Fall Mix) <--- Best of the lot
G&M Project - Control Of Your Mind (Flutlicht Remix)
S.H.O.K.K. - Isn 't It All A Little Strange (Flutlicht Remix)
Shockwave - Missing The Beat

Most of it is from earlier this year. I've fallen behind on hard trance releases lately.

Tech-Trance is another name (my preferred name actually) but I thought more people would respond to "hard trance". In fact, hard trance is more along the lines of psy-trance. I personally am trying to define a genre named "bassline trance" that combines dirty d&b basslines as the melody, with a hard, tech-trance build-up.

About maurio picatto - you're right, he usually doesn't produce this type of music. The track "new time - new place" is a co-op with another producer....

ANYONE know the name of the second producer??? I couldn't think of it off the top of my head, but this track is SICK!!! Check it out for sure!

hahahahaha you yank n00bs crack me up at times. fact is mate, none of wot u put down are actually hard trance bar maybe No Regular. also they are all pretty much entirely different types of trance. Hard trance and tech trance are certainly not the same thing.
here's a few recent (proper) hard trancers :

Thomas Rubin - Cold Night (DJ Scot Project Remix)
Technoboy - War Machine (Hardstyle influences but def hard trance imo)
Dark By Design - Blackout
Dave Joy - Third Pleasure (Uberdruck Remix)
Hennes & Cold - Can't Have Enough

scott mac - damager 2

at least i think that is the right track name. its been in a couple of cosmic gate sets and i think its on the new resonate cd...

geezz.. i have enough of hardtrance.. Hey Could you please go listen to Hardcore/Gabber first before you tell me your top 5 hardtrance? thank you.

Although many of us seem to disagree about style names, the point of the thread was to get some names coming up. Hard trance, tech-trance, energy trance, and hardstyle trance... post your favorites here. Any type really, just with some intensity, ok? Lets not argue genres and styles, I admit, my orignal post may have been a bit misleading.

Thanks to those posting tracks.

TwoPlow--> Good stuff, very much the sound of my cd mixed in august, so a bit outdated, as you know.

DJRaveMonkey--> You're right. But as I said above, I am trying to get people to respond. I will choose my wording carefully next time. Thanks for the tracks, heard H&C and the project remix. Waiting on the dave joy uberdruck... that'll be sick.

StalkerElmo--> Whatever man, the second response to my thread the guy didn't know it was co-produced (and said correct him if he's wrong). Not everyone here knows as much as you do, and some know more, so lighten up.

Sketch--> You're right -> Mauro Picotto & Riccardo Ferri - New Time, New Place
