To some extent I agree with u stipsy. I love the really nice big uplifting tunes but they do so much more when played amongst more simple and minimal or solid and driving tunes.
This is what makes Armin so good, he leads into the big tracks with more simple ones, so in effect the set constanly builds around the tracks not in them, if u get my meaning? |

thats exactly why I love the genre so much these days. Its not limited to one specific sound or beat and has an incorporation of many genres. |

John 00 Flemming = Awesome.
He is leading the way in my opinion. |

Personally, I'd be placing Armin in the category of stale uplifting trance DJs, every time I listen to ASOT (which admittedly isn't often these days) it seems like he's still playing the same tunes as last time, or at least tunes that sound exactly like the tunes he was playing last time.
Marco V and j00f are the ones who really do it for me these days. Tiesto seems to be hot and cold, while Paul van Dyk's sets are very hit and miss. Ferry seems to be keeping uplifting real, but there's only so many times I can stand hearing that damn Synaesthesia remix :mad:
This is all just subjective of course, I haven't listened to much music for the last 12 months or so, thanks to stupid crappy dialup :whip: |

well, am sure all you guys know more about/have heard way more uplifting trance than yours truly. but im happy to say that im still a total UT slut and loving every second of it. i keep hearing all about the pre 2000 brilliance of trance, but the stuff ive managed to get a hold of makes me yawn.
as for prog, tek, house, breaks -ewwwwww. maybe im just not the conniseur (sp?) everyone else is, but im still lovin the build, breakdown, peak formula. :D |

| stips man i know what you mean - 2004 has been a bit of a downer compared to 2003 however there have been a number of releases in the last couple months that Hybrid Junkie has found which are pretty damn nice... i wont name them coz he wants them on his new cd :p |

Its a case of being overindulged & spoilt. Being around when there were many many hits, now turned anthems was great and all.
But what its done to us is make us want people to churn out anthem after anthem. I too agree that uplifting has lost its direction, there is nothing innovative/fresh about it anymore.
I do however find myself venturing off into other avenues, but at the end of the day i still come back and listen to the great tracks of the past. |

wen armin plays it its amazing, seems like every 2nd trance dj copies everything he does and makes me get over the tracks!!
rach's tip: dont play communication unless u R armin gosh that shud b a given! (altho wen diggs and morro played it at alt relaunch that was aweeesome but that is the only exception) |
