| I definately notice a connection here. Im a piano major at Las Vegas Acedemy, and while all of my peers are stupid about EDM, they seem to enjoy it for the most part. (Im talking DJ Sammy - Heaven bull) On the classical forums in gamingforce, a large amount of posters there seem to like it as well. With many of the big trance names out there, you cant help but notice the influence of Baroque and Impressionistic styles within their music. As a producer, or just as an avid listener, has any of you ever had classical training? If you have, do you incorporate what you know from that into your own music? I would like to start a list of songs that you guys feel have some classical essence within it. (PLEASE NO ADAGIO FOR STRINGS!!!) |

| stylistically, they couldn't be any more different. both are harmony based however and the only connection is on a technical level. just b/c they both aren't pop doesn't mean we need to find similarities between them |

I agree with you bout the connection.
most producers were trained in classical music. |

| a lot of older trance uses the same type of melodies/scales as some classical music. a good example is most tracks from gouryella |

You'd probably be surprised by how many EDM producers are classically trained. I can think of a few notable trance guys. |

"A few" is hardly the same thing as "most", now is it. |

No, but I was just clarifying that there are some. |

Absolutely.
I'd go so far as to say that trance is the 21st century equivalent of classical. If those crazy guys back then had midi, who knows what kind of crazy they would come up with! |
