| I'd still have Point Zero in there, it basically set the blueprint for 'epic' trance records 4/5 years in advance. |

Anything by Dash Berlin :haha:
On a serious note, What absolutely did it for me was Hardfloor- Aceperience. Same era as Jam & Spoon- Stella. PVD & BT- Forbidden Fruit was the start of the epic-produced trance era for me. Lots of great stuff came out after that. Another important trance tune for me was Way Out West- Domination. Was epic style production but full on stormer. |

nah, i think "Icon - Desire (Icarus Mix)" from '93 on Eye Q would be a better example of that. |

both of you guys that release was huge for them I know they had been around for a long time before that |
How was it any more important than the number of big hits they had around the same time? How did it "launch" Hooj? Basically you just like this one track a lot and are trying to justify it with some bull historical importance, which happens way too much on TA and is exactly what the OP asked you not to do. Great job. |

How about the influence of DJs on the scene?
Who were the first guys that start spinning trance music and who had the most influence on the scene? |

That's what I meant when I said you shouldn't just look at individual tracks. DJs, record labels and club nights are all important. It's not as though people just heard any of these tracks in isolation at home and started copying them. People would go to clubs and hear lots of similar records being played, and collectively those tracks would influence people. |

question for Trance-MB: you german/dutch-speaking guys still call trance "hammer" or is that reserved for the old stuff? |
I think you have been trying to catch one with your head...

Again probably a long list, besides the more obvious ones I would put names like Yves Deruyter, Jens Mahlstedt, Gary D, DJ Hooligan and Mark Spoon on it. |

I definitely think DJs had a huge influence. DJ Dag, Paul Van Dyke, Paul Oakenfold but the list is endless.
I also think clubs were ,also hugely important in terms of trance. Again,I'm no expert but I think Tresor, E-Werk, Dorian Gray in Germany in the early 1990s. Then Gatecrasher and Cream in the UK later on. |

A few of mine would be:
Chicane - Saltwater
Planet Perfecto - Not Over Yet (Matt Darey '99 mix)
Jam & Spoon - Be Angeled (Hivver & Hammer mix)
Paul van Dyk - For An Angel
Miro - Paradise (Red Jerry's Longdubbyvocal Mix)
Robert Miles - Children
Albion - Air (and remixes) |
|
|
| EddieZilker |
Deepsky - Stargazer
Art of Trance - Madagascar
Just to add a couple to those already mentioned. |
