Here's my story...
Last year I went to a club, for the first serious time in my life, and they played "easy-to-swallow" music that bordered on Dance, with nice melodies and a cool beat, and I left that place feeling pretty impressed. Prior to that I'd never seriously listened to any dance music at all, let alone buy records or CD's.
So, wishing to "follow up" on that I started looking for dance-music CD's and reading reviews on sites like Amazon. The first trance CD I bought was none other than Oakenfold's Tranceport, which was praised by many listeners as "a great introduction to trance." Personally, when I listened to it, I was severely disappointed. I expected to hear something very melodic and danceable, what I got instead was some slow transcendental -- or so it seemed to me back then, although I'm not a big fan of it even now -- and I thought to myself, "alas... so, is *all* trance like this? In this case maybe I picked the wrong genre in my search..." The road ahead to find something I liked in the dance-music field seemed pretty long, and I was discouraged.
Then I decided to try my luck again with trance and ordered -- quite blindly, I admit -- Kimball Collins' ICU Generation Trance 2000. That was February of this year, 2001, one week after I bought Tranceport. The minute I got that gray CD by mail and popped it into my CD player, my life was changed forever!!! That CD simply rocked my world!
I've been a fan of trance ever since, and now I'm even an amateur DJ. But my first glimpse of trance was pretty discouraging, and I was lucky to find something else that was not just good but also, as I learned later, more representative of the genre, which I was about to bypass completely. |

dunno bout you guys, but Puerto Rico is somewhat lagging in trance parties. DnB is what's mainstream here. I got my first good trance overdoze the first time Mr. George Acosta came over on December 1, 2000, and dat was some gig(a few weeks after I got to rip the copy of the concert that's going arround jeje)
after that, it's been trance all the way, with the help of you guys |

I fell in love with trance when I heard Orbital - Halcyon & on & on from the hackers soundtrack. I always looked for trance but no one around my neighborhood knew it.
What really got me into the club/trance scene was listening to DJ Tiesto - Live @ Energy 2000. This set took my to new levels - sober! lol. Ever since then i've been hooked helplessly. |
