| I dont know what it is about trance, but it mostly only sounds good loud. If you play trance too low, you can't really hear a lot of the intricate lower frequency sounds. So it needs to be played somewhat loud to hear all of it imo. Which brings me to my next point. I was playing it at work, and a lot of songs that we all know and love, sound great when it's blasted. However I can't play it too loud at times, due to work and other people present, so I try to keep it at a medium volume. However trance at a medium volume does no justice, you can't really hear anything and it sounds flat. Anyone ever get this? |

| I agree. It's incredible to hear the little nuances and layers from the producer when it's played louder. |

| Techno and Trance is body music, we must feel the bass. The physical sensation of feeling the kick drum and bass throughout our bodies triggers a release of endorphins and enhances the overall enjoyment of the music to five rising stars and a galaxy. The vibration and the tactile sensation create a unique and immersive experience, .... the noise crates of a PC or portable speakers cannot provide this, they are not satisfying ... and hence, a sweeter spot is in front of Funktion One Infrahorns, Martin Audio kick bass and JBL speakers, with their sweet transparency 💜 ... |

Sometimes I'm glad my 'work office' is in such a tucked away corner of the building that I can blast music from a bass-heavy bluetooth speaker and no one's fussed about it.
/still too far to go for a bathroom break
//no, I will not demean myself with a piss pot |

| All dance music is deliberately designed to be heard extremely loud through a club sound system on drugs. This is not new information. |

| Most dance music sounds bad / annoying without significant low frequency representation |

| How did they manage to make much more decent dance music in the 90s and early 2000's when they had more primitive technology in comparison what we have now |

How did they make more memorable special effects in the '90s when they had more primitive technology in comparison? Sometimes when you have less to work with, you make more of what you have to work with.
/not that a lot of '90s CGI looked like ass as well
//there was a lot of ass-sounding music in the '90s too |

I see what you mean.
I have to say Robert Miles - Children is not cheese, I know it's been overpalyed on the radio but it is a dream trance classic. |
