all of those dj's...zabs, sasha, fancuili, desyn, nick & jody, lawler, steve porter...
they are all at the top of their games and they are playing such a huge variety of sound and tracks i think what they are doing is recapturing that feeling...
armin and co...well...yeah |
+1
What i would call the Prog scene is really doing it at the moment almost to the standard of '99 but without the commerical backing and exposure that the tunes enojoyed back then, good or bad i'm not sure. |

ishkur: You're so full of its not even funny.
This is your own interpetation and experiences of trance. Please do not speak for the entire board and sputter your useless facts.
90% of people went the same path as you on this board?
I think i could speak for the whole majority on here except for a few that EVERYONE on this board loved the between 99 - 2001 who experienced the sounds at that time.
Once again, your logic is brutally flawed. |

It's funny, because I followed relatively the same path you did, but I personally did not get into trance (more of a house/breaks/hardcore guy) until about 97, though mostly through the industrial/goa tip.
By 99 I was completely ing sick of the stuff. The same god damn template, the same anthems, the same snare rolls, the same breakdowns, the same hands-in-the-air hold-me-I'm-rushing melodies so ing predictable you could set your watch to it, every single ing song at every single ing party, played by every single ing trance DJ. It was boring. It was stupid. It was ing ridiculous.
That was why it exploded. Because it had become this tepid, manufactured, feather-lite pap. Bull McTrance for the stupid majority of people who didn't like trance originally, until it started sounding like commercial crap sing-a-long jingles. The most memorable violation of a form of music since black funk became white disco in the late 70s.
^ this may not apply to you specifically, but I'm willing to bet it applies to 90% of the people on this web forum. |
you and radagast aka aiwendil should have a gay marriage with Star Wars as a theme...you can be princess leia and radagast can be a stormtrooper...otherwise you can ride your trance high-horse up a herpes infested vagina |

i agree with most of them except for Steve Lawler...hes an amazing DJ and i love his dark tribal/house sound....however his 2005 tracklists are upsetting though...and i hope he goes back to his sound for lights out 3.

blew me away..........still does |
The set that got me into trance right there.
BTW, notice how the "flanger" was whored so much in many of Oakie's '99 sets? Except it actually worked well right at the peak of the buildups. Oakie was perfection back then. :eyes: |

Hi everybody. I just came back from the future. I went to the year 2010, and looked up this board. Apparently the general consensus is that trance sucks and it's not like the glory years 2004-2006, when everyone started listening to this music.
Nothing ever compares to the first time you experience something. |

Some people need to stop living in past and look into the present. Trance is still as good as those years if not better. |
We are not living in the past, but what we are saying that the 99 ara was much better for trance than it is now, maybe you should get all these tracks and sets and see for yourself and stop making bold comments. Trance better these days? Well i guess you dont know Trance very well my friend. Like i said, get these sets that TAs mentioned and then make a comment. |
