ive been a loyal tranceaddict for around 2 years now and im always asking myself, whats the differance between melodic and uplifting?

| I'm sick of everyone always trying to classify trance! Just call it trance! Or even better do what Van Dyk does. Electronic Dance music. |

| Melodic doesn't always mean what it sounds like it means, sometimes songs that are called 'meldodic' are called that because they don't have anything BUT a melody and very calm drums. But you can have an uplifting melodic song. Like, I think Gouryella - Tenshi fits into the uplifting category, certainly...yet it happens to be very melodic. A non-melodic 'uplifting' song might be Lost tribe - gamemaster. Not to say that it doesn't have really cool and inventive chord progressions and such, it's just not a very melody oriented thing. Uplifting/nonmelodic another example=Ayumi hamasaki - Trauma (Dumonde mix) and uplifting/melodic other example=Barthezz - on the move (dumonde mix) has one of the coolest most memorable tunes I can think of...but be sure to get that remix of it or it's not uplifting enough!!! Maybe will think of others later... |

I like that better, then i dont have to hear people (not on the msg board) bicker and fight over what the definition of techno is, and what trance is. sheesh :rolleyes: |

| Listen to like 2 seconds of a melody in a song. If you love just those two seconds, it's melodic. |

| ya melodic os a track with a "CATCHY" beat or sound to it...the term MELODIC is in all forms of music...not jus trance...its basically a catchy sound |
