Whenever someone mentions Hard Trance, I always hear about S.H.O.K.K, Cosmic Gate, Marc Dawn, Alphazone, Kai Tracid, Flutlicht, etc.
I don't mind these artists, infact I enjoy them greatly, but they seem to be the "cheesier" side of Hard Trance, all hi-hats that are endless.
I've come to think "real" Hard Trance is the stuff Paul Maddox plays, really hard banging stuff, almost a cross breed of Hard House I guess.
I'd consider these Hard Trance :
Paul Maddox & Niki Max - Reach Out
Tomeat - State of Motion
Guyver - Trapped
Am I confusing Hard Trance tunes with Hard House tunes or does anyone else consider this the "real" Hard Trance? |

Trance. It might be a bit harder than what I usually connect with trance, but it's not hard trance! |

comedy, you say the above are cheesy yet name cheeys hardhouse hybrid artists.
i find that a lot of hard trance can be considered cheesy because of the bare nature of the genre, but artists like shokk and m woods make their tunes a bit more vbaried and complex rather than a lot of other artist, for example the uk hard trance and their smaey rolly soft kick and wob bassline, to the german style with the "just-like-scot-project" sound.
flutlicht used to be hard trance, and used to be different, and quality. their productions i nthe last year before their end were far from hard trance. |

| You are thinking of UK hard trance, which I think is the better variety. |

| REAL hard trance is stuff like Lab 4 and J. Biomehanika, The only thing I dont like from it is that it is a little to drugy for me |

uk hard trance is on the whole hardhouse with a bit of trance synthy action.
generally its ing but there are quite a few decent tunes, the ones which are less like HH really and dont go for the steretypical synth styles and OTT cheesy melodies. |

I'm thankful I'm not the only one who sees the similarities in that regard... but really, trance is arp house. Semi-jest. But seriously, it's all connected, somehow. ;) |
