    Re: Trance Music

    Im over trance. Its a thing of the past and I dont bother check anything trance related in the current "era".

    I think what we called trance in the late 90's is and sounded different from what we call trance today. The old sounding trance that Oakenfold played was very very good imo.

    I've gone through phases of genres in the edm world. Starting from house to techno, acid techno, trance, progressive, elecro/minimal back to house and deep house.

    One thing is for sure (imo) and something that has stayed pretty consistent and that's the house sound. I try and listen to some prog and I find it a tad bit boring at times (maybe its the "current" prog sound; I dont know).

    I see trance as just plain wack now. But thats the current stuff. My sound files in my head are corrupted and it does not allow me to withstand any of it.

    UNLESS they are classics... Bonzai, Lost Language, Green Martian, Xtravaganza, Additive, ATCR, Hook Recordings, Flammable, Manifesto, Perfecto, Barracuda, Liquid Asset, Platipus, Kinetic, shiiiit those were some fucking great trancey labels and the artists that carried them was insane.

    I think the same can be said of the early 2000 Progressive sound, the artists and its labels, I mean just check out the "They dont make them like they used to" mixes lol Yes self advertisement there; sorry...

    I will never get tired of Gouryella Gouryella, LSG Shecan, Moogwai Viola or Jon Vesta Gull

      Digweed played some trancey/balaeric tracks in the 3rd hour of his set at Pacha last year. To these ears, it was summer, he was enjoying himself in the booth and wanted to capture the moment/vibe by playing something different.

      I reported Trance-weed at the time last year !

      Report Renaissance @ Pacha Ibiza I'm still on a high after last night - what an amazing bill ... while the big festivals seem to draw a decent bill most clubs seem to just book one big DJ these days (I?m classing Sash and Digweed as a duo as they play b2b). So to have diggers and Hernan grace the worlds loveliest club, with


      Sasha always threw in trance tracks when he was at his best - Space Terrace'04 he played Nikola Gala - Swing 2 Harmony .. but being Sasha he played at at completely the right time to make your jaw drop. One of those moments when the whole club stops in its tracks, a chill goes down the back of your neck, and clubbers just look at each other in amazement.

      Sasha's taken the breakdowns out of his sets - maybe MAVEN doesn't offer that function, but back in the day ...

      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.

        I think its obvious that, if Digweed plays trance, its cool. Maybe because he doesn't overdo it. I agree that, at times his sets, and sasha's, to say the least, are quiet "trancey" and less "clicky".

        I remember coming across some Sasha/Digweed sets from Costa Rica a while back and they were nothing but trance. As good as they make it sound, it was a bit surprising.

        I agree that the binary finary days are over. Tiesto is a duchebag who jockies his success on the forefounders of what we know as good music today. Maybe, in the early days, I would have had respect for him, but, now that fame and success have got to him you can only snigger.

          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...

            Maybe putting up a video for his Dance 4 Life tour is a bad example of calling him an ass, considering all the proceeds from this track, and these events went to the charity to help raise awareness for HIV and AIDS
