trance is music in Major (as opposed to minor like house) with a 4/4 beat.
Yes a kick is required for trance, thats like saying a Heavy Metal song without Guitars.
Breaks and Build-ups, as well as the tempo of the track all have factors of the genre.

You mean a major key? Not all trance is in a major key...

I don't care about kicks...trance is only a music that let you in a "tranzy state of mind"...

I gave up heavy metal a few years ago for trance.
Trance has got more power, plus lots of sexy females to make things a lot more interesting. Evanescence is somewhere in the gap as an exception. Just give me a Jan or Juistine or Mavie with some Tiesto or Armin or Oakey to back 'em up and I'm good to go. :D

Good for you.
Now, would you like to tell us what this has to do with the thread?

It never ceases to amaze me how close minded people can be. Oh well, your loss not mine.

Take some stuff by Tangerine Dream. No 4/4 kicks, but that IS trance music, more so than a lot of the crap that gets peddled as “trance” these days.


:rolleyes:

No. That's like saying a heavy metal song without a kick. A kick is percussion no matter what the genre.

song without a decent kick is called a thomas datt production....hahahaha.....ok cruel joke

Actually I think the kick makes the tune then again, I've heard good trance without kicks...does not work as well in clubs tho.

Well of course not! But if you were to take an amazing trance track and take away the kick, then you would still consider it to be trance. Correct?

How about 4/4 snares instead... :stongue:
