Recommend an album to 'get someone into trance'
After 3 months of dating, my girlfreind still hates my music selection just as much as the day we met. I have my turntables and would love nothing more than it spin a set or 2 while she watches, just so i have an audience.
She likes oldies.... like 1960's oldies 'because everything was so upbeat and nice back then' which is weird because shes only 21.....
Anyway, im looking for someone to recommened an album for me to buy her so she can kind of get her feet wet and open her mind to some great songs that there are.
Im considering the super cheesy route and almost putting shivers and as the rush comes and all that other garbage on their, but since she doesnt know very much about the genre she wont appreciate a higher level of production than the very commercial stuff.
thanks

It depends, honestly you'll get better results if you find out what kind of 'sound' she likes. So just play like a record from a genere/style of what you think she might like, then just ask on here or using your knowledge burn her some CDs / spin some shit in that style.
For example, I found out my girlfriend LOVES the dark tribial proggy stuff.. So I gave her Lights Out 1 and a bunch of other stuff. She hated EDM at first but now is starting to apperciate it more and more.
It just takes time and effort :P
But if you want general trance selections, maybe look into some ISOS 1/2/3? BT's work, Kyau and Albert or some Micro de Govia.

Why is it so important to you that she enjoy your music?
Buy her Crazy Frog and tell her to shut the fuck up. Or break up with her. Either way, you aren't going to change her opinion of your music.

lol its important to me because then she wont roll her eyes when im all fucking pumped up about some new track on my ipod thats playing when i pick her up. Granted its not like i would ever change the song to really appeal to her unless it was like a looooong car ride, but i have enjoyed my journey thus far into the trance scene and wish i could share it with someone else i share everything else with.
Why not play some house music that always works out better for females, Swedish House Mafia, David Guetta, or Bob Sinclar.

Long ago I was in the same boat you were. It was hard because in the car I wanted to listen to the music I loved, yet she hated it. What changed everything was one night, some pills, and Xpander. From that night forward, our musical tastes have been one and that was 5 years ago.
Your girlfriend is a moron. Or maybe you are. Or both. The point is, break up with her immediately and find someone who at least respects the things that are important to you.
