Help a metal head find the trance he wants!!!
View this Thread in Original format

Yes, I am a metal head. Through and through. I love melodic, symphonic, progressive, black and death metal, and I would be nowhere without it; there is no other music that comes close to giving me the feelings this does. Bands like Opeth, Dream Theater, Sonata Arctica, Sigur Ros, Dimmu Borgir, Edguy, Symphony X, etc etc.

At the same time, I am not an elitist wank. Metal is my thing, but I can happily listen to, purely on fun or background music merits, punk, rock, etc etc.

Recently I have heard a few trance tracks I loved. Only one I can put a name to is Kontakt's "show me a sign". Maybe you guys are more underground and regard this as commercial wank, however I love it because of the female vocals and the dark, minor-key sound of it all.

Im just wondering if people can suggest trance music along these lines, not necessarily with vocals?

Thanks all!

EDIT: HA, and dare I say it, Britney Spears "me against the music". After you have repeatedly hit me over the head, hopefully you kinda get the idea of the stuff I am after :p.

he said kontact - show me a sign i wonder why no one has suggested binary finary - 1998?. also try evanescence - hello (tri vs g&d mix), and also brainbug - nightmare (ingo remix):D :D
p.s welcome to the wonderful world of trance :stongue:
Vigilante
Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes (Sweeping Strings Mix)

just so you know mate, a lot of people on these forums don't like this song, because it is "too commercial" or "cheese", but i think you might like it if you are new to trance

Other suggestions:

Delerium - Silence (DJ Tiesto Remix)
Andain - Beautiful Things (Gabriel & Dresden Mix)
Gouryella - Ligaya
Oceanlab - Satellite (Above & Beyond Mix)
Plummet - Damaged (Antillas Mix)
Roc Project (feat. Tina Arena) - Never (DJ Tiesto Remix)

[b]Yahel - Voyage

This track isn't vocal, but it is a personal favourite and it kicks ass!


P.S. I think pretty much all trance is minor key (i'm sure there are exceptions)
