| well my hometown is 30 mins east of tampa, so those of you who know about tampa's music scene is that florida breaks is really prominent there. so i always heard it on the radio (baby anne, icey, tony faline, huda hudia, etc), got really into it in '98, from there i heard fragma - toca's miracle in 2000 and that's when i started a transition from florida breaks to trance... and that's how it happened... |

1995-1998
Got into Chicago House music after buying a mix tape from a kiosk at a nearby mall, as well as listening to a couple of records my cousin had at the time.
1999-2002
Got introduced to Euro dance music from a friend of mine, so I bought a couple of mix CD's from local dj's. Around the same time I walked into a store at the mall that was playing this different sound I hadn't heard so I asked what was playing and it turned out to be a mix CD that they got from a kiosk inside the mall. The CD had tracks like Mauro Picotto - 'Like This, Like That' (On Air rmx), Microbots - 'Cosmic Evolution' (Dj Scot Project rmx), and Barthez - 'On the Move' which really got my attention. I also bought another CD from another local dj that had tracks like Derb - 'Derbus', Voodoo & Serano - 'Blood is Pumpin', Cosmic Gate - 'Exploration of Space', and Cosmic Gate - 'Melt To The Ocean' all which were labeled here in Chicago as Progressive music.
Late 2002-2003
I bought a copy of FIFA 02 for the PS2 and there was this track that kept playing from time to time during the game, so I looked at the credits and found out it was Dj Tiesto - 'Flight 643'. I also bought this mix cd from a local dj that had Paul Oakenfold - 'Southern Sun' (Tiesto rmx) and Dj Tiesto - 'Lethal Industy', so in early 03 the same local dj made another mix CD which had the tracks Bedrock - 'Heaven Scent' (rmx), David Forbes - 'Answers', Aalto - 'Rush' (Super8 vs. Orkidea rmx), Solar Factor - 'Urban Shakedown', and Motorcycle - 'As The Rush Comes' (AVB rmx) which just blew me away. I also picked up a copy of Tiesto's Nyana CD.
2004
I picked up a copy of Armins A State Of Trance 2004 CD as well as Universal Religion 2004 Live from Amnesia, and from that day on I was completely hooked on Trance and still love it to this day...
I would also say that having access to the internet led me to trance since I used to listen to RUSH on Nova 96.9. |

Cosmicman - I Love You
I think this was the track that really sparked my interest back in the day. |

Pot. Literally.
I'd been into electronic music (old "north american electro" [:wtf:] records from the 80's and early 90's, a bit of euro, and loads of house) since I was a youngster, but never really got into "trance" specifically until I needed to drive to Madison to pick up some pot. On the way back, my best friend put on Resident: 2 Years of Oakenfold @ Cream, and I was pretty much hooked by the time "Blue Fear" was mixing into "Shine."

I listened to some EDM since 1995 but what really got me into it was:
Drugs + spring break in South Beach in 1999 + Oakie's 1999 EM world tour |
