Is trance dead in Australia?
View this Thread in Original format

I rang a friend in Melbourne (progressive house DJ) today and he says trance is dead there. He said There is hard trance (and hard house) and progressive, but nothing in the middle.

I find that hard to believe. What do you guys think?

:conf:

Your friend is exactly right :(

hmm .. I wouldn't say trance in Australia is dead, but I would definitely say its underground. Simply because there is only a very small following.

Whether that's a bad thing or not, I'll leave up to you to decide :)

There seems to be a very small following, maybe due to there not being much Trance nights around, however I think it's ok that way.
I wouldn't say it was dead though.

Ok would you rather the way it is here, nice and quiet, underground compared to everything else, or like it is in UK/Holland where every man and his dog goes out to clubs to hear trance. I know which I'd rather have. :)

well we'll see who gets the main room(s) at two tribes and then we can decide if trance is dead in australia...


my bet is that armin, judge jules etc will have the main room.. :)

to be honest.. id rather it stay this way
makes it more of a treat when we get internationals and events and also the fact trance doesnt hit the charts (like it does in Holland and other european places)

Yep, I bet heaps of ppl would complain if it was really popular and it was played on the radio all the time.

I dont mind Trance been "underground", but I cant stand people reffering to trance as DJ Sammy or some cheap techno song :whip:
Lots of un-educated fools :D

That is a load of rubbish. Trance is just starting to take off again:


Surge@Eden has been packed pretty much every time
Altitude@Dendy also gets a good reception
Transmission will definately sell out.
Two Tribes will get big numbers
PVD@Home will sell out

Trance dead? What are you talking about??
basshound
lots and lots of uneducated fools in Aust. :rolleyes: :whip:

Australia has a big quiet base of trance lovers..
Trance gets a good reception at raves up here.. but is still underground, Bris mostly breaks, house, or hardhouse.. :gsmile:

but this year we have a monthly Trance nite put on by the ozSessions crew. :)

BRING ON DA TRANCE :D
