Trance Addict

Anyone else big in the trance scene :)

SHIT YEAH! Seeing Johan Gielen in 2 weeks, seeing Ferry Corsten in about a month and have already seen Tiesto perform twice this year.

Trance/Psi Trance/Hard House/Hardstyle/Hard Trance. Yeah.

Oh yeah! I always thought I hated Trance, Techno, House, whatever, until I started hitting up clubs in NYC. Damn! These DJ's actually know what their doing behind the tables. Well, I've been hooked since.

I'm in the US so i cant make it. Hopefully i'll catch him when he comes to the the West coast.

No good DJs ever come here :( we get one occasionally but not the big ones. We only have one techno club here too and i cant even get in it cause im not 21. bastards.

:( That sucks KDog.

Even though we're so far away from the rest of the world, we get heaps of good internationals coming here, plus a very healthy local scene. Heaps of good clubs in Sydney.

maybe i should visit you guys for a month haha. probably the closest city that good DJs come to is Chicago which is like an hour away.

Hell yeah!! Sydney clubbing odyssey with Ozzie :thumbsup: Bitchin'.

Went out last night to Sounds (www.sounds.net.au), was a damn good way to finish off the weekend. Good crowd, some nice uplifting trance from Jumping Jack.

well i just looked at the place in town where all the bands go... (www.therave.com) honestly i dont know why they calle it The Rave. Its far from a rave. its all rock and rap shows.

Thats awsome i didnt know the scene was so big in Australia. We have our fair share here in the Los Angeles area.

It's starting to catch on in central IL

I really like Trance/Electronica. Some of my favorite artists are, DJ Shadow, Blu Sphere, Christopher Lawrence, ILS.

I want to start mixing my own songs now.

I've met Christopher Lawrence. Absolutely excellent DJ.

I used to listen to a lot of trance, but I've kinda been falling into the house persuasion lately. When I was in high school I went to a lot of raves and totally fell in love with the music, but as time went by I started to find it a little bit too hyperactive for my tastes. Maybe I'm just getting old... I went from there to more progressive type stuff, and slowly into house tracks. A little downtempo now and then is cool too. I enjoy pretty much all things electronica in appropriate moderation except some of the hardcore acid trance and happy hardcore stuff I've heard. All that 180 bpm madness around fruity vocals is just a little bit too much for me.

Pfft. If the bass is too hard, you are too weak.

Happy Hardcore rocks, and so does tribal house.

Grant, you and I can make a new mix, we can call it "AF Revitalized". And I will come down under if I can play with the kangaroo's.

Hmm Kay. Drugs R Bad, Mike.

I don't think it's a matter of weakness, just a matter of taste. I appreciate a good hard bassline as much as the next guy when I'm in the mood. I still like to pull out a few of my favorite old trance records every once in a while, and anything but deep, throbbing bass in those is pretty much pointless. It's mainly the speed and silly vocals that gets to me in a lot of the tracks I hear. I think it just makes it unlistenable after a while, and I couldn't even begin to dance to it.

To each their own...

I like some trance, not a whole lot of it.

Big fan of industrial like Pig / KMFDM though.
