Pioneer DDJ-T1, Traktor Pro 2, Trance.
it depends how you see trance, and how you understand it's development.
For me around the end of the 90's the main genre took a departure in to a more commercial direction, while the subgenres went in different directions.
Todays more popular trance IMHO doesnt have that much in common to the stuff in the mi 90's, yes it is still energetic but it is not so hypnotic and depedns a lot on long breaks and over the top build ups, also a lot of vocals.
But when you look at sybgenres like psy progr trance, dark psy, even progressive tyhere is still a lot of the old ethos there.
SO basically there is Mctrance, easy to consume and trance for the crazy people outhere which like long parties, long festivals and getting lost in to music.
Of course this is all my opinion.
Early 2000's but again it fits the bill, this track is one I get lost in everytime, headphones on and drift away![]()

Depends what you're referring to in saying "trance."
There's still plenty of great high-bpm trance out there that isn't underground, and there is plenty of amazing underground trance and progressive trance.
However, what Above & Beyond, Sander van Doorn, Cosmic Gate, Armin van Buuren and all of the other "trance giants" are playing these days is commercial as fuck. Big saw electro basslines, cheesy leads and fluffy vocals. It's pure crap compared to what trance used to be. It's funny because years ago I regarded all of these DJs as gods. Oh how quickly they sell out...
