Once upon a time in the land of trance...

- Tiesto was a good DJ and producer

- John 00 Fleming was on DJMag's top 100

- The only "vocal" songs were in the form of sci-fi movie quotes

Your turn!

I actually missed the entire trance scene. First and only trance show I went to was Tiestos Kalaidoscope tour (if that's trance..?)

Pretty awful I know. :hides:

Lucky for you guys there's still plenty of good Trance around, you just have to try a little harder to find it these days.

Thats pretty new, oldschool trance is stuff like this:

And to answer to the thread title:

...trance was no genre for it self. It was still techno. Just with a little bit more spacey atmosphere. Tiesto and co were still shitting their pants (or at least releasing stuff under "West & Storm"), and there was no supersaw ;-)

Hard Trance FTW.

Dubstep was yet to be born!!!

When Space Girl performed but alas... she's now an LNA I believe.

FYI if you don't know who Space Girl is... she would mix pre-produced tracks, and play multiple hardware synths over them live(I believe) Pretty good stuff last I remember, but I was 17 last time I heard that

I love techno, and I love the older trancy techno stuff before trance was around, but imo the late 90's and early 2000's were the trance hayday.
