Pretty good tune indeed but I would have to name drop "The Train Of Thought 1.2" or Paragliders - Change Me...found only Tetsuo and Tranceportation labels. The version released on Hooj Choons does not have the Original that Sasha would drop in his sets.
This video is misleading with the Hooj Choons picture but it's the Tranceportation Original Mix.

This might be abit OT but is there anyone from the last 10 years or so that has made techno/trance that sounds like Lieb's old stuff?
SYSTEM-J
This is from 2020 and it mixes like a dream with Netherworld. Try it at home:
Trance-M
From beginning till end I personally always liked these better:
Resistance D - Skyline (Bytes Mix) (1994)
Zyon - No Fate (No Fate Mix '93)
L.S.G - Fontana (Processed Mix) (1995)

I recorded Armin playing Netherworld in Toronto back in Aug 2008... was one of the last great sets I heard live from him.

He also said LSG - Netherworld two more times in 2017 and earlier this year (from what I'm aware of). He does shoutout Li Kwan - Point Zero as well though...

Wow, he even name-drops CBL's Interloper as a favourite album.
Nice reminder that Armin The Person does have good taste in music, even if Armin The Icon does not.
Trance-M
It's still funny how Armin thinks Trance started when he started listening to trance. He's right that in Holland we called everything house in the early 90's and Trance became a lot more popular around 95 and 96, but e.g. Trancemaster 1 and Reactivate Five - Pure Trance And Techno were released in 1992 so the word Trance as a genre was there, but he just wasn't listening at the time.
Netherworld is great, but the first part often is skipped, which is why it's not at the top of my list.
Armin never listened early hardtrance, so there won't be any early hardtrance tracks in his list, but I'm sure enough early trancers would mention some as best ever. I always thought it had to do with the fact he's from Leiden. For sure it would have been different when would have lived in Rotterdam like Ferry.
Point Zero is also in my best ever list, but also Quench - Dreams (1993)
There isn't a best ever trance track, just maybe a most popular.

Trance-M ended this thread. I was confident until I realized Point Zero exists.

Great track and one that I rarely ever heard played live. So many elements to it

He's always been upfront about the fact that he is an entertainer and that his personal taste does not align with what he plays out.
