I gave away all my old records so a lot of tunes are escaping me at the moment. This thread is great, btw. It's been a long time since I've listened to trance.. good trance that is. :toocool:

And some classic intense trance tracks (sorry if any of these were posted before). Surely the crucial factor must be the quality of E back in the 90s or something. Hypnotic bass, acid pulsations, piano-like arpeggios and sci-fi emotional cinematic strings its all there

ah, gotta love these threads...
how many people on here were actively listening to trance, buying CD's of trance, and going to shows/raves in the 1992-1994 years when trance first blew up? from what I've seen in this thread, probably on a few outside of myself.
I don't recall trance really being a specific genre, but a subset of BOTH house and techno with a hypnotic, experimental, evolving sound. look at the early trance sound of Hardfloor, more of a hypnotic house sound at what we still consider a house tempo (125-130ish) to some of the manic tunes of Spicelab was doing, crazy epic journeys that lasted 15 minutes or more at well over 150bpm! They were vastly different, but shared the trance "feeling" and the same label. Are any labels doing putting out such disparate music under the exact same label name these days like Harthouse used to? I don't think so, and labels often resort to sublabels when they do.

Ive just finished a mix of all new tunes that sounds very much like the oldskool progressive trance (sasha/oakey late 90's/early 00's) of yesteryear if anyone is keen i can post here

Haven't read through the whole thread but these are "classic trance", a but on the harder edgier side
