Talking

In your Track Comments on each Track in the Download Page, you speak about Uplifting Trance and some other sub-divisions of Trance. Please can you explain me what are those sub-styles and what are their caracteristics?
Thank you very much.

wow thats a cool website

but half of the stuff that they explain what trance is, is not true like paul van dyk is more of a progressive trance trance not epic trance.

and binary finary is not that

everything else seems to be somewhat right though.

but thats my 2-cents

PEACE!!!!

the samples for each, are pretty much right (For An Engel is NOT progressive in a million years tran-o-holik, you can call it epic, but Uplifting is the word of choice) but the evolution is pretty much wrong for trance and techno
The format is bad too, all the genres are basically intertwined, spllitting really gives you no sense of evolution

but it's good to get to know what each genre approx. sounds like

Epic trance and uplifting trance are the same thing (aren't they?)

Nope, they are different big time.....Uplifting would be tiesto kinda stuff, not that heavy....Epic would be more Dumonde and System F stuff, heavy synths.....

I love this page! It's so specific! I listened to the Rotterdam music at the Hardcore part, and my stomach just started to hurt, cuz I was longing for the good ol' days! ...but I'm doing better now

That little flash program was made by the creator of this site, which has some other funny rave-related things on it too: http://www.ishkur.com/

Dumonde is hard trance.

Epic Trance is uplifting. ex: Ferry Corsten, Tiesto

Hard trance has heavy percussion, bassline or kick & usually faster. Ex: Cosmic Gate, Warp Brothers, Scot Project.

Progressive trance has funky, subtle progression doesn't have strong driving melodies or heavy synths. ex: James Holden- Horizons. Joshua Ryan- Pistol Whip. Max Graham. Sasha- Expander
