I was looking for something more ....well...more "mature" than rock music...and less popular than top40 dance crap, which i simply couldn't stand...all that euro crud.
then one of my friends let me hear:
Robert Miles - Children..... I was almost convinced....
then he gave me a CD with one trance track...the rest was all progressive euro and house..(I only know that now)... the one trance track was...
VERACOCHA - CARTE BLANCHE...... and so I was addicted. |

Following up to the post above by me. Though I am 19 years old and was born on 83, I have lots of electronica all the way from '76.all over.... |
Yup...yer just a youngster...lol, but got hooked at the right time :D
I'd say my liking to "dance" turned in about 86, but my first dance track was Giorgio Moroder - Midnight Express: Chase from '78. I think I still have it on 8-track. :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: |

| The first electronic music I heard was Jean Michele Jearre "oxygen" and "equinox" when I was little (although I didn't label it electronic music, I just liked it), now when I conciously got into it was when I bought the album from chicane "behind the sun" after that I started downloading "trance music" in napster, then I bought an everythin but the girl cd "temperamental", kept downloading tracks and an aquaintance told me to download Xpander (which is a track I can't get over listening), bought "out there and back" from PVD, kept with the downloading, bought another everything but the girl cd (complilation of greatest hits?), now after reading in these forums I'm into Armin van Buuren (his kinda Jean michele jearre IMO but faster) |

| The Mortal Kombat soundtracks are what got me started. That and an uncle who has always listened to various forms of electronica who gave me an early Paul Oakenfold cd...which somehow dissapeared. |

| was into happy hardcore/oldskool back when i was at school in 96/97, then kinda moved with the times, i liked whatever was in. '99 was the year of trance in ibiza, thats when i really got into it, moved away from it a bit in 2000 when garage was in (but i NEVER admitted to liking garage, OK!!!!), then got sick of the attitude associated with that type of music. Don't think I'll ever change my tastes now, but thats definitely a good thing. Along with my car, my music is the second most important thing in my life (after my friends and family of course):) |

TOP THIS!
7 years ago (at age 11)
only type of music i listened to up till that age was rock,
and then, out of nowhere, i started making music (in impulse tracker)
i was very happy with what i produced, and i thought to myself,, isnt there a genre like this somewhere?
went to the music shop, browsed the whole thing for covers that looked like what i was after, found a couple,, listened and bought.
1 of them was mortal kombat, the other was astral projection.
am i the only ta who MADE trance before listening to it? :toocool: |

*bowing gracefully*
Big props to you!!!
I am a musician as well, but my story isn't quite as inspiring. I was pretty much leaving this place I had been doing a Karaoke contest at and on my way out, there was a dance floor I had to pass--Let's Go All the Way (Johnny Vicious Dub) was playing and my feet just wouldn't go anymore. The high's were calling me (literally) and hours later I found myself still there, dancing on the top box to Paul Oakenfold and the rest is history.
Those were the good old days...:o |
