I'm always a little afraid to put this question on a forum cuz lets face it, forums are ing brutal sometimes. But seriously, I'm interested in hearing where everyone thinks trance IS going and where they'd LIKE to see it going. I've been extremely frustrated throughout November and December because I've gotten really bored with not only that cheesy slower style that's become more mainstream, but also I've been hearing way too many ideas being repeated to death in all types of trance and progressive. I'd like to know what people think and what directions trance should start taking so that it can, once again, can have a fresh, original, and unique sound. Something to help it evolve for the best.
Thoughts, ideas, feedback?

I hope it evolves toward a harder, more driving sound again. Cheesy Vocals / Minimal is boring me to death. For some reason, the harder edge of the EDM spectrum seems to be confined to the UK scene.

It's obviously heading toward two different spectrums, some producers and DJs are incorporating the poppy, cheesey vocal crap (Armada). Other DJs are incorporating techno/house elements (High Contrast). And then some DJs are just combining the two.
I'd personally like to see more progressive stuff. But that sound doesn't get the casual fans jumping at shows, which is a shame.

its loseing the emotion
that new slower/techy sound is dominating it these days and alot of dj's and producers who never supported it in the past, now support it which doesnt help either
i dont want to turn this into another "i miss trance" or " trance sucks" kinda thread but it just seems that every year there seems to be some new trend that gives the genre a bad name
first it was everyone makeing cheeeesey vocals, then the useless remakes now its everyone doing the same bull slow/techy sound
dont get me wrong i love trance, and there is good trance out there, but for the most part alot of dj's live sets all sound the same these days
trance like this is a dieing breed

Curious as to what you'd think of this. Personally I think this track is brilliant.

Another one. Personally, and I'm not sure either of these would quite fit perfectly into the "trance" genre, but if trance were to go in any direction, I'd hope it'd be in one of these.

track is def nice, but imo it wouldnt work well in a club
thats more of a chillout when your home kinda song, but it is a nice song

Yeah you're right. I think it might work well for a sunrise set kinda afterhours thing at a club, but in general I think you're right.
At least for me I guess, the kind of music I want to hear in a club is not the same as the kind I listen to at home.
