but anyway, whatever... its just genres.


I consider the progressive trance of 97-99 to be classic trance.

Don't care much for the epic stuff from that time.

That looks like a paradox to me.

Well, if classic rock has gone on to include the 80s now (and even a bit of the 90s), it'll only a matter of time before anything from the 90s is considered 'classic' trance.

Yeah, but i don't see how "progressive trance" and "classic trance" could join.:clown:

It wouldn't. The term 'classic' would refer to music from a particular era, not a specific style. Probably what's termed classic trance -as a style- will take on a different term, maybe German trance or old-school trance.

When I said I consider progressive trance to be classic, I meant as part of, not that it is solely classic trance.

Stuff that was new and exciting back then.

So the trance of the early 90's, the much more stripped down simple stuff is classic, but so are the type tracks that Oakenfold, Sasha, and Digweed were playing in the late 90's.
