There.. I said it. 2005 is by far #2 for best year for the trance genre, it could possibly be just AS good, maybe even better than '99. Good trance, I think. I had so much fun at the clubs. It was looking a little bad in the first and 2nd quarter. but then BAM!
AWESOME! 1 month to go! 1 month for more AMAZING songs! |

have you been smoking crack, 2005 has been terrible. trance has just dwelled down to where it's bound to hit soon, the point of it's ultimate low, i thought it was going to be this year but it's possible it's 2006. the fact is that the tracks being released lack in quality, ideas, punch and producers just seem to loose the plot. more tracks are being hollow and run of the mill productions. i always wondered where the 303 went in my trancemusic, it used to be essential, now you barely hear it. but that's because producers can't figure out how to put a decent acidemulator in reason. and also these goddamn remakes and update remixes. it's like it never stops, i reckon it's good updating a track or two, but when that track or two number becomes 200, then it's just silly. and then the inevitable, when going in yearreviews in trance you have to go talk about the big forces. well ok then.
actually nevermind, so much has been said over these months it's unnecessary.
do i still have hope for trance, no
will i still listen to it, probably
is it going to redeem itself and get back the glamour of the mid90's, yes, for the reason that all music goes in cycles. something has to go down if something else has to peak. |

i think 2005 has been a good year...
even trance is good...but not the trance and artists that most people are going to refer to which is basically crap... |

Maybe it isn't trance.
But songs like
Markus Schulz Feat. Depature - Without you near
Marco V - More than a life away
Dogzilla - Without you
Paul van Dyk feat. Wayne Jackson - The Other Side
OMFG I LOVE IT! ANd I am not really into vocals. |

2005 = worst.year.ever... BY FAR (and I thought 1997 blew hardcore).
1994 = still the best year for trance ever IMNSHO. |

Flamebait.
montana said essentially what I would. The year has been worse than even 2003. |

Yeah, that's the one glimmer of hope, is that some good trance IS percolating again. It's just a matter of how long it will take for the epic empire to finally bottom out, to clear the way. |

you know i used to think that 2002-2003 were kinda bad years...but there is actually a ton of great stuff from then as in every year...i just didn't do the research i do now...there is good stuff out there...people just need to look. find labels...find tracks...find other labels...it goes on forever hehe |
