Trance Newbie...need suggestions!

So! I'm what you might consider a trance newbie, but I'm not necessarily new to trance, per say. I got really into Darude back in 2001-2002, and have stuck with him for a while (not a huge Sandstorm fan, but I LOVE Rush!). I spread out to PvD, Tiësto, Armin, Sasha, and the other big guns a few years back, and liked what I heard. Recently, I've been getting into some other performers (Ferry Corsten, Chicane, Underworld), and have fallen for a few tracks (Saltwater, Dirty Epic, Fire, Born Slippy).
I come here asking for recommendations as to what to where to move on from here. I'm open to anything (since I haven't really delved too deep yet), and appreciate any suggestions! I'll probably be downloading through the iTunes store at first, and I have no reservations about buying a lot of music.
Hope to hear from y'all soon!

Edit: I'm watching the video MJBJ suggested right now. Any articles/pieces on history or the like are appreciated as well! |

Underworld aren't DJs. Neither is Chicane, as far as I know. They're just producers and live performers.
DJ and producer are two different things. |

Oh, and I recommend that you watch this to get an idea of what trance is all about :

| just listen when you can, whether it's stuff like a state of trance or any other radio show, or maybe a cd or mp3. head to clubs if that's your thing where a dj is going to be playing, or even the big outdoor events. like i said, just become a listener! and introduce friends when you can. i introduced a few by bringing them to armin in nyc this past week and they can't wait to see paul van dyk in august. stuff like that :) |

I don't think there is an official list, here's what I recognized:
03:18 Kool And The Gang - Fresh (I don't think you really want this)
03:35 The Visions Of Shiva - How Much Can You Take? (Physical)
06:35 Effective Force - Diamond Bullet
09:55 Humate - Love Stimulation (Lovemix By Paul Van Dyk)
11:02 The Visions Of Shiva - Perfect Night
11:50 Marmion - Schöneberg
17:20 Robert Armani - Circus Bells (Hardfloor Remix)
20:00 Vernon - Wonderer (Instrumental Mix)
24:45 Paul Van Dyk - My World (Visual Valley Mix)
2 or 3 tracks sound very familiar, but I coldn't ID them |

Start off with some classic compilations like the old In Search of Sunrise series and then move up.
Also recommend Above & Beyond.
Haha on PvD, so young on the video :D |
