| I had just moved to Orlando to start a new job. The guy who sat next to me was one of the first to introduce himself....and soon thereafter started sending mp3s my way. Soon I was borrowing cds and asking for more mp3s on a daily basis...I was hooked...and he is now one of my best friends! :) |

| what got me hooked into trance? cd compilation called "dreamdance volume one" - all the classics are on it, "insomnia" by faithless, "x-cabs" by neuro, "l'esperanza" by sven vath, "age of love" and many many more... that was around 1996... then i started djing two years later and 12" called "1998" by binary finary fell into my hands...THAT DID IT...respect... |

I'd have to agree with Robert Miles - Children in '95. Man, my friend said he just got it and played it in the car on the way to Seattle. Just a great CD with friends an a trip.
That and the fact that the Portland/Seattle scene at the time was all about Trance. We hated house so much back then that we "Boo-ed" Bad Boy Bill of the stage. haha. (I know we were disrespectful, but man it was not the music in our cities at the time.

| My first trance experiance would have to be when i was younger...i came home on a head full of acid and my mate gave me a CD(urbal beats 1) to "chill" out with...i flipped through songs and wasnt to interested, then i stumbled upon RITM - OBE. i was completely stunned i thought i was in a dreamworld...i had to keep opeing my eyes to make sure i was alive, i think that song is more breaks..but it got me started in electrica music, which for some reason i use to hate |

I use to think Trance was just a bunch of repetative club music for ghetto, trendy ravers that have no life (or music education). In fact I use to talk a bunch of about trance, especially after hearing the chart toppers on mp3.com (which was one of the only places I could hear trance besides the clubs). I would think:
What no chord change for two minutes?
What no main melody, just a bunch of effects for the first minute?
What, a simple arppegio holding the song together?
What, a 909 again, how many times can it be used?
Then sometime in late '99 or early '00 I was out clubbing semi drunk on the dancefloor and something different happened. It was a beautiful synth lead, drowning in reverb and delay. I looked at my group of friends dancing with me and I yelled "I can feel it, I can feel it". And with wave after wave of chills flowing through my sweaty body I forgot about my everyday worries and felt free and happy. I danced with my eyes half closed for the next three songs feeling each one of them along with the rest of the crowd and then an even more beautiful synth lead came in and everyone was cheering. It was, Out of the Blue.
The next week at work, I spent the whole time doing searches on Napster for Trance music and using suggestions from write-ups on Amazon.com I found melodic/Uplifting trance to be the only thing I listen to and create. And about what I said before, now I enjoy some of the trance chart toppers on mp3.com. |

I have listened to house music and techno since the early 90's about 2 or 3 years ago I went to a rave and thought it was cool. This past year my buddy Rob has given me some cd's to burn and thats where I heard Sasha & John Digweed Northern Exposure. I started to search the net for trance music as well. Before this I only knew this sort of music as being called house music. Rob also introduced me to other DJ's in the states like Frankie Bones, Maa Bell, and Bad Boy Bill to name a few. They were nothing like the Europe sound of trance but I still liked them. Ever since my collection of trance has been growing as well as my knowledge of the music and DJ's. I still have a lot to learn though and if it were not for this cool site called TRANCE ADDICT that I just happened to stumble upon one day, I might have been still left in the dark.
Thanks!
