Although I wasn't into trance at the time, I think it's generally accepted that 1999 was the best year for trance. (I swear I was born 5 or so years too late :(!)
Question is, do you think we'll ever have another '99 in the future? I know music is very much a cyclic thing, but does this mean that there will be another brilliant year for trance or does it mean that simply trance has had it's time and it will fade away? |

| I think so. At some point (in the near future hopefully), trance producers will begin realizing that it all sounds the same and that we need to return to that late 90s sound. |

Your definition of Golden Age may differs from someone elses...
I do agree that trance was great back in 98-00 but I have heard plenty of quality tunes that have come out 01-04 too. |

I feel that trance live sets were best in 2000-2002 (i.e. Tiesto @ Energy, Pvd @ Rosenmontags 2002). But, production-wise, I think the best stuff came from the 1990s (Greece 2000, Cafe del Mar, Binary Finary, etc.) |

First off, this is a great thread :)
I ask myself the same thing sometimes. I got into trance in 2000, and apparently, according to some people, I just missed the "Golden Years" of trance. But imo, trance must still have it's quality and greatest even today, because if I missed the "Golden Years" of trance, than what the hell am I listening to now... because I love this :toocool:
... awaiting the next epiphany.

Figuratively speaking, of course there will be another '99. Where people go wrong is in thinking that it will sound like '99. The entire reason that trance exploded was that it was fresh and full of a new vibrance. That sound isn't coming back anytime in the near future, because people still remember it.
There will be a major shift in dance music sometime in the next decade, I'm sure, but it probably won't be anything people expect.
I had really hoped that tech-trance would be turning things over by now, but it just hasn't happened. |
