OMG!!!! The End of Trance!!!! (pg. 5)
View this Thread in Original format
Narcotic Mind
I will say this once again:
you think that our generation isn't expose to trance? perhaps, but most of the people in my country know what trance is, and most of them listened to trance, and there are many trance lovers, but many of my friends still prefer rock upon trance (not much of pop in my country), so don't think that anyone who will listen to trance will become a trance fan.

No I don't think that the majority of people outside of Europe do know what trance is. Look at all the stories earlier in this thread about people hearing trance and not knowing what the hell it is.

That's way I say it needs exposure, regardless of how commercial you construe this music to be.

Who the hell is this goon from MTV thinking he can
put a trance compilation out. First of all, I downloaded
it not because I wanted to listen to it but because
I wanted to see how bad the transitions were and if he had
any talent at all. He uses songs like

1) Silence (Tiesto remake)
2) Darude - Sandstorm
3) Castles in the Sky
4) Ascension (Thrillseekers remake)

And so on....As you can see he is trying to appeal to all those
damn teeny-boppers out there....I swear if MTV starts playing
trance I will kill myself....I know Im going to see a bunch of
little twelve year old girls at Best Buy buying this cd saying
how Ray Munn looks like the backstreet boys....That reminds isnt
Ray Munn a backdoor boy anyways????Oh by the way the transition between songs is absolute shyte!!!!AND TO TOP IT OFF, HE CONCLUDED
THE CD WITH ONE OF THE GREATEST TRANCE TUNES OF ALL TIME

Slyder - Score

Please someone shoot me!


Excuse me, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ASCENSION "SOMEONE" (THRILLSEEKERS REMIX)??? I love that tune! "Castles In The Sky" and OMG "Sandstorm" are both BAD though!

I find it saddening and even a little disturbing the attitude of some of the trance community. It seems that whenever certain productions get successful or a DJ gets big somewhere else, they get hassled for making the scene too commercialised. It appears there is a portion of those who listen to trance who would rather the music remain underground and in a niche instead of achieving wide acceptance. Do people feel threatened that "their" space is being invaded?

The trance "community" does not own the music that gets produced, if you don't like it, then don't listen to it. Everyone appreciates different types of trance, so to write off tracks as "cheese" or crap is unfair. MANY people enjoy that music. It reminds me of those people who say that all trance is crap, it's the same metality.

One of the things people have to accept, is that if trance had not effectively been commercialised, due to sponsorship of events, and clubs etc, the scene would not be so healthy now. Whether you like to accept it or not, the scene HAS to make money, and naturally artists want to spread their work as far as possible.

As for Paul Oakenfold (topic recently posted..) personally I dont like the guy. But I respect his work and what he has accomplished. The time to criticize those who work in the industry that makes the music we love, is the time we stand on an equal platform with them, by having released several albums and played numerous live sets. Until then, you have no idea what it takes to be a successful DJ and/or Artist.

Respect to those who love the music, create the music and take the music to the people. Without always looking for ways to expand and progress, trance will stagnate.

P.S Ferry Corsten kicks all those other DJs asses!
:D

klawd, i disagree with you.
"The trance "community" does not own the music that gets produced, if you don't like it, then don't listen to it.

i will write off the tracks i wish as cheese, regardless of whether or not people enjoy it. i enjoy some cheese. and others i do not.
its not trashing an entire genre, like "all of trance" but its criticizing individual productions and sets. some out there are just HORRIBLE.

but others can create excellent commercial trance (ferry corsten is a great example)
many produce annoying commercial trance (judge jules, pulsedriver, that scot project junk)

also you said "One of the things people have to accept, is that if trance had not effectively been commercialised, due to sponsorship of events, and clubs etc, the scene would not be so healthy now."

well john digweed is possibly the biggest underground dj of ALL TIME, and when he does play trance, its somethin else.

if people start calling dj scot project commercial then whats stopping them from calling all trance commercial? where do we draw the line?

well its that voodoo & serano, warp brothers type of sound.
maybe its not the most commercial sound, but everyone knows it

i just happen not to like it

The Greek
i know what you mean i dont like voodoo and serano either and the only song by waro brothers i like is not even a song its a remix of the norman bass song how you like bass...but dj scot project like them two? they sound nothing alike to me because i hear quality with scot project but with the others i dont...i guess its just my opinion just like you got yours theres nothing wrong with having an opinion but i definitely think that scot project cannot even be compared to those other two you mentioned or their specific sound like the blade soundtrack...i am finished now :)
