      Re: Trance Music

      Yeh ... but people will actually argue how brilliant some of the drab clicky uninsprining miminal stuff is or how great electro is

      The fact is that Sasha and Digweed played trance tracks over the years ... if it was playable back then then some of it still is now. Personally I like variety and great music regardless of tags or trends.

      This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.

        At best it is hopefully a gateway to listening to other styles of EDM. A lot of so called trance DJ's seem to be gearing toward a more techno like sound, but for a recommendation, check out 4Mal's recent sets, Kintar/Rex, Shiva, and Micheal/Levan, The sound may be a little more progressive, but asking for Carry Foreskin, AVB, PVD and the rest will bring some serious heat on this board, There is an understanding that excessive chedda will not be tolerated in the promos section.

        So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

        1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
        2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
        3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
        4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

        Am I close here?

                Well that's why we're all on [ms] and not elsewhere. I like it that I can visit P&R and there is a 'benchmark' of quality to the sets.

                I have nothing against trance like For An Angel or Xpander or the Platipus stuff. Armin's not too bad either when I caught him last year.

                  why? can't tolerate major synth chords? not a big fan of snare rolls?

                  I recommend dling PVD's Essential hotmix live from cafe mambo. music can be fun, ya know.

                  ffs dude, digweed use to drop "cafe del mar". sasha dropped nalin & kane. are you suggesting I"ll get heat for posting those sets?

                    Re: Trance Music

                    ^^^ It's not 98 anymore, first of all, secondly I have seen some of the chedda heads out in a club, Carry Foreskin for example, play a lot of heavy sounding techno beats, was not typical trance,even though it did have though synths, all it seemed to me was that the bpm's were cranked up, no basslines or variety. If you want to rock Binary Finary, by all means, but don't forget the glowsticks and the gurners smile.

                    On a seperate note, just had to big up those 4Mal sets in the P&R, very melodic, say even trance like, those sets just get it done, if you get overwhelmed with the current tech house craze. If you want to get trance old school just bust out that Sasha New Years Eve E Mix from Alexandria Palace, now that really gets it going.

                          I think he's talking about different stuff, trance has come a long way since those days when we were introduced to it. Just like how today's electro house is kinda electro influenced but I refer to it as plain irritating electro though I might not have any issue if I heard some other electro track from a different era.

                          No doubt back in the day trance rocked. You can never eclipse stuff like Nalin Kane or PVD or Three Drives, but trance today is just irritating and predictable.

                            Im glad to see a bit of hype was uncovered.

                            "No doubt back in the day trance rocked. You can never eclipse stuff like Nalin Kane or PVD or Three Drives, but trance today is just irritating and predictable."

                            I do agree that some trance is irritating but you cannot deny that some of it is good. Especially the classics. But i think for now i will rest my case.
                            Time is the best teacher. The problem is that it kills all of its students.
