Well first, try using the search button because posts like this happen every other day in this forum.
And if you are looking for the latest tunes and peoples opinions id check out the CD Reviews/New Releases discussion. There's even a section for DJing as well. |

Well for one you have to listen to various styles of trance ie. progressive, epic, tech, hard and goa. You have to decide which sub-genre do I like the best, or do I want a combination of different stuff (Prog and epic go well, prog and tech do, goa and hard do, any combo should go well except possibly prog and hard due to extreme tempo differences). And you really have to get yourself started, we can offer you advice and some recommendations, but it's your job to find out what you like. Since you spin on CDs (i do too for now until I get a TT again (traded them in for CDs due to costs of vinyl). You should check out Beatport, they have sub-genres divided up in the trance section. It might not be the best trance section but Beatport is fairly new so it has some time to grow. There is also AudioJelly, which is more expensive but has some exclusive, harder to find songs. |

Needles.. Haystacks.. Honestly good grief, you can't just say I like 'trance' so give me what you've got. Give some examples of what you do like and it will be easier to point you in the direction of more.

And also, ignore this irrelevant wet fag. What could you honestly expect to find in terms of track recommendation in a forum designed for discussion on mixing techniques, samples, etc? |
