***"Trance:
-Early 1990s. This form of music owes much more to early 1980's synthpop than to house music (though it is now known as a flavour of house music). The transition between early 1980's synthpop and early 1990's trance was extremely smooth. Musically, the only difference is the deletion of the bass note on the first and third quarter notes of a bar. Think of Dead or Alive's "You spin me right round" only instead of the bassline going "oobah oobah" it now would go "(kick drum) bah (kick drum) bah."
One of the earliest trance superhit songs was "Age of Love" by Age of Love."***
Another early trance song Planet Soul - Set You Free back in 1996
Moby's Go is also a pretty old one. Don't know if it's older than Age Of Love though.
Also some of Jam&Spoon's earlier work, but again I don't quite remember the exact year and it's not really strictly trance by todays standards (Stella, My first fantastic fist f.).

If I read this I think about tunes like:
Jay D - Plastik Dreams
Airscape - Cruising
A Thing - A Quest of thousands
Also Prodigy - No good is a very trancy tune IMO!!
