What you forgot to mention, though, is that they all suck compared to European artists... with the possible exception of BT, who is pretty famous.

Yep, with the exception of BT, they aren't too good. And those labels have some stupid names...and I'm really not surprised they are American labels...like Funked Up recordings, ugh, very creative, or Sunkissed.

and that ladies and gentlemen is why the music discussion area of this forum is so enlightening. with analysis like "suck compared to Europeans" and "stupid label names", i wonder whether anyone here listens to anything new that hasn't been played by some big-name euro dj. "just give me build-up, break-down trance on a label i know by a producer i know, and i'm happy," seems to be the attitude here.

What can one do, my fellow Batimorean?

you can't even begin to compare the trance scene in America to that in Europe so stop.

the important thing is the scene is developing here..give it some time people.

THE only American Trance DJ/Producer worth his salt IMHO has to be George Acosta. Now he can get a dancefloor moving both through his DJing and by the tunes that he makes. Emotions was probably his best tune, hes been very quiet lately though!

every 1 always disses america
