But what's the conclusion, because you all got me a bit confused.
Is Epic trance a lighter form of uplifting trance (just stuff like Chicane/ATB), or is Epic trance similar to Uplifting trance ( reaching from Chicane to System F)? |

Oh how i love that track, when Tiesto came to town last month, I got to meet him and I mentioned to him about how much I just absolutely -adore- this song. His reply was "It's a fun song eh?" Which it is!
other favorites:
CloudWalking - Pulsar
Ordinary World - Aurora
Sky Dive - Free Fall
Gouryella - Gouryella
Everytime - Lustral

this is in reply to infinity's question...
in my opinion, epic trance and uplifting trance are separated by a fine line only... i think the only differrence is the popularity of the track. you wouldnt call anything thats not played by the top dj's epic, b/c its just not the same as binary finary or gouryella. it can still be uplifting and not be epic, but pretty much all epic songs are uplifting. thats how i c it :)

yeah the mike koglin mix was the one i was talking about, even though the nalin & kane mix of everytime got more play.
that (i think) is epic trance epitomized. absolutely uplifting, it'll put a smile on anyone's face. i guess epic trance = uplifting trance, i just never liked using that word because it seemed like some bull term that someone made up . heh
but in response to dwingo, id say its that chicane stuff to system f... most of ferry's stuff, like cry, solstice for example is maybe borderline. because it can still be linked to music like signum's what ya got 4 me (which i dont think is epic at all)
but like i said before, if you say epic trance, saltwater immediately pops up in my mind.
i think a common quality they all have is a strings instrumental.. look back thru the stuff, tenshi, gouryella, lustral.. am i right?
gotta love the strings |

| I have never thought that epic trance could be used to describe a genre. To me, each person's idea of epic trance is right for them. As for my own taste, I prefer uplifting and melodic trance, so what is epic for me certainly comes from those genres. I'd have to say Rank 1 - Airwave pretty much sums up my version of epic trance. |

I will for sure check that out!
One mix of that song that I am not to fond of is the Vocal mix, I think it ruins the song IMO.
Peace, |

You guys like commercial soft trance.
My view of epic is that it has to be uplifting and mind elevating...
Go to http://mp3fun.cjb.net to find out what tracks I consider are epic trance.
Dream trance does not mean epic trance!
I do however, like Armin's Communication but it was like played to death years ago!
I can pull out any of my favorite old tracks from 3 years ago and anyone will agree with me its epic..none of the soft boring stuff you guys listen to
try
Fiji - Atlantis vs Avatar (Lange Mix)
at least this track changes melody and isnt the same riff over and over 100 times!
if you like harder
The Generator - Where are you now
the stuff you guys like make me fall asleep! You guys need to get on napster and start listening to non commercial stuff |

Hmmm, I really am getting tired of seeing posts like this one. When exactly did elitist snobism enter the trance scene?
I know I can speak for the rest of us when I say that we certainly bow down to your mastery of music. Perhaps one day, the powers that be will shine down upon us and give us the brilliance and wisdom that have earned you the title of trancemaster. Oh, by the way, note the sarcasm. |

I'm quite partial to the following at the moment:
York - Farewell to the Moon (Original mix)
Major League - Wonder?(Vocal mix)
BT and PVD - Sunblind (ft. Jan Johnston)
Rank1 - Many Miles Too Soon

respekt to Aviston.
you could make the argument that atlantis - fiji or the lange mix or whatever, and armin - communication, are just as repetitive (formulaic if you will) as lustral, gouryella, or anything else. its called trance, which is always repetitive to a certain point. and they're just as commercial. was communication not on one of ferry's trance nation albums? bbc's radio one also plays fiji all the time.
case in point
im not trying to start an argument here, i just dont think you can be discrepant between the songs klumsy named, and the ones already listed |
