trance

Trance [music] is experimental electronic (opposite to instrumental) dance [music] which orients around harmonious sound textures (a.[k].a. [melody] textures). It originated back in late 80's but became an official genre in 1993. Since then trance producers started to form definition in various ways, what led to creation of many trance sub-genres.. Some of the most known are: (1) Progressive trance - lowers ratio between [melody] progression and [melody] texturing to some solid level.. (2) Epic & Anthem trance - emphasizes sound [melody] more than melody texturing. This trance-sellout led to big disappointment for original-trance listeners (3) Psychedelic trance - changed the sound texturing dimension.. original trance tried to make a repetitive sound by combining complex layers of melody textures.. psy-trance tried to make it more progressive in time - by making it more complex in gating Opposite to trance is techno - which orients around non-harmonic (percussive) textures.

Trance

A type of Electronic Dance Music. Reached it's peak in the late 90's where Trance actually became somewhat mainstream in the U.S. Although not as strong as it used to be...Trance is far from dead.

Trance...best music ever.

By Bobby De Niro

Trance

To put it simply...The best music ever devolped. Uses a pulse pounding beat and uplifting, euophoric melodies. Trance music can be listened to under any circumstances: Getting pumped b4 a game, get wild at a club or party, speeding down the freeway, Chillin in a lounge, sleeping too, even trippin out...

The club exploded when Paul Oakenfold began spinnin.
