Me and some guys are thinking of setting up a new type of techno/trance music - a techno band. We have someone on the guitar (for riffs etc) and on the bass for well, bass, we have a drummer, and of course someone on the synth.
The only trouble is, everyone round our town is into rock!! How we gonna get gigs? Trance is not very popular in UK :confused: |

| Wow, your idea would be pretty new if it was 1985 right now. |

Yes it ing is. If there's anywhere in the world it's popular, it'll be the UK. Why does everyone, of every nationality, swear that trance isn't popular where they live? |

With the aid of a small army of session musicians. Most of their recorded stuff is synths, but obviously when you take it live you have to do analogue.
It's quite a smart idea really. If you do some careful production you can reproduce a drum machine with live kit, and live you can strip the stuff down a lot. |

relative to other genres it isn't exactly popular anywhere. though i agree the UK is probably better off than most countries from what i've heard... seeing as we still get big sellout festivals like global gathering, creamfields, large crasher/godskitchen events etc as well as nights in most big towns. pretty sure holland tops us though :p
and to the topic starter... get some productions out there, may help ;) |
