LMAO!! Trance sucks d!ck. Only thing worse than Trance is Rap and Country.

 

[LordMaul]

Like any genre, some of it really blows, and some of it kicks ass. But generally, I like a lot of it.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Various mixes of Marc Aurel's Sound of Love are my latest love.

 

[Lichee]

you guys just dont have an ear for it.

besides, i cant believe you people would say something "sucks". whatever happened to the "to each his/her own" phrase that was mentioned?

btw, stuff that came out in '00 or '01 differs from the '02 and '03 stuff by far. people that say they dont listen to it because it is a "been there done that" sorta thing should listen to what is hot now. either that or get some japanese trance or what not. im sure THAT sort of trance will spike your appeal.

look up any trance versions of songs by:
Ayumi Hamasaki
ie:
Far Away (Rank 1 mix)
M (Above & Beyond remix)

I have been into electronic music for a long time, and I have always hated listening to trance.

Maybe I would like it if I was constantly on acid.

ATers rip on anything that's trendy basically. They like to think they're better than trendy people or something. They have that mentality atleast.

I've already listened to Japanese trance. Ayumi is a been there, done that also. She has some good nontrance songs also, but I can only take so much of her high pitched, shrill, nasal voice.

I've been getting back into house/club, LA stations play from clubs and stuff on weekends and it sounds good.

First, develop your own opinion instead of trying to figure out what you like via ATOT polls and threads.

I usually dig 70s and 80s rock, but I have been getting into Trance more and more.

I often leave that Digitally Imported sight up to listen to some stuff while I surf the net.

Trance is so-so, Jungle/Drum and Bass = Way better.

Ok, I just download some Paul Oakenfold and Ayumi Hamasaki stuff and I'm not impressed. I must say the songs all sound very, very similar. If I was in a club, maybe, but just listening to? Not for me.

Ok, now go and download some jungle or d&b before you write off electronic music. Go to Drum and Bass Arena and Bassdrive and come to the dark side

If its nothing but a beat I'm not interested.

they sound horribly repetitive to me, almost mind numbing.

Try listening to Sasha and Digweed - Northern Exposure (Disc One)
:Q

or if you are too lazy to listen to a 80 minute mix, try this song:
Sarah McLachlan - Remixed - 05 - Silence (DJ Ti&euml;sto's in Search of Sunrise Remix)

 

[nan0bug]

The easiest way to describe it would be to say trance is the 'pop' of electronic music. Drum and Bass is more like the heavy metal of electronic music Its darker, faster, more mentally engaging. Trance hit its peak and hasn't evolved much since, Drum and Bass is always pushing forward with a constantly fresh blend of old and new.

Listened to the Sarah McLachlan and I still don't like it. Now you try:
Mogwai - Happy Songs for Happy People - 06 - Ratts of the Capital
That's some good stuff,

I have been in love with trance ever since I listened to an old "Re-Activate" double CD 6 years ago. Then I discovered BT, the king of trance, and I basically had to get all his albums and anything else he has touched. People say trance has been done to death and it cannot offer anything new anymore. Well, they should listen to his albums in the order of their release and see how much he has changed his music over the years. He still plays trance, but his latest album is very different from his first.

Sure, a lot of trance musicians out there just keep regurgitating old loops and instruments, but isn't that the same with every genre? I mean, how many "grunge" (or whatever they call themselves) bands are out there right now that sound exactly like Pearl Jam? And how many rap artists have a truly unique style? You could pick any genre and say it has been done to death, but that would be incredibly ignorant. You just have to find the real gems among a multitude of mediocre musicians.

Dude, BT isn't just a trance DJ. Thats why he's so good. If he were spinning just trance he'd be about as crappy as everyone else.
