I have heard a lot of definitions about trance but I thought I'd ask everyone here what they think the word and genre means. Any thouhgt and opinions would be great. As well, if anyone would like to drop a couple song names that'd be great

a psychological state induced by (or as if induced by) a magical incantation
A state in which the soul seems to have passed out of the body into another state of being, or to be rapt into visions; an ecstasy.
A hypnotic, cataleptic, or ecstatic state.
Detachment from one's physical surroundings, as in contemplation or daydreaming.
A semiconscious state, as between sleeping and waking; a daze.
A tedious journey
the dictionary definition pretty much sums up the musik for me

pure Trance examples
Bedrock - Heaven Scent
Sasha - Xpander
BT - Dreaming
Paul van Dyk - Avenue
basically anything on our all-time favourites list... in other words.
trance music should at best take you to a journey and throw you into a state T-Funk quoted... and at worst, still being able to make you stop thinking. when it goes too hard or too fast, the focus is shifted to the beats, then it's becoming "music for the body", not your mind.

Trance is a music genre like no other, every genre is unique in itself but trance is something that stands further all other! Trance is an epic genre full of journeys and harmonical adventures. Every trance tune is unique in itself, with its own beats and melodys.
You have a favourite tune that you love above all other, and when you put it on, you feel that 'tingeling' feeling that makes your spirit wanna fly away and touch the heavens!
Everytime you hear a song you love you will get this feeling, and trance gives you this shivering feeling, this wonderfull emotion!
Very nice article man....really a wonderful one...
I couldn't have said it better either
You know: You can't explain Trance with words....feelings do the talking
