One of the greats from the "sitting room" as Butler would say.

The more i think about that comment in the documentary, the more i feel what utter bull****e it actually was.

How narrow minded a view can you get when you have Trance tracks like these that were played in the best of venues,

If you cannot see the merit in these phenomenal tracks and the serious ecstasy and euphoric out of this world feeling they deliver you have definitely imposed a self inflicted snobbery onto yourself.

Was never a fan of that trance sound tbh, nothing to do with snobbery

Don't think it's aged particularly well either

Wow, i feel like i have an obligation now to find an Oldskool Trance track that you will give a nod to....:)

How about this,

Nah, wouldn't be big on that either

The "trance" genre is fairly wide ranging imo, I'm not saying I dislike it all but that particular EyeQ/Cosmic Baby type faster sound does nothing for me

Anyway here's a sample of old "trance" music I would still listen to although some people might argue this isn't trance at all so what the f*ck do I know???

On the above tracks, i would have put number one as Acid, Two as Trance..... and seeing as Trance is in the title of the third one well who is going to argue with the producer of the track:)

I will have a second punt at an Eye Q track, what about this?

It's alright, wouldn't be in a hurry to listen to it again

I remember when i first got my hands on this album when it was just released, i listened to it on Acid called globes when I was alone and i necked one, then i necked a second one a while later, and then a third shortly after that, listened to it on repeat from start to finish i think about 5 or 6 times that night pumping loud.

I have a deep appreciation for it ever since.

I also recall first seeing this video in a similar fashion about 7am one morning after returning from the Rave..... man it was fcuking weird,

Much prefer the 7" mix to the 12" because of the punchier drums. Why on earth does the 12" mix have the lighter pitty pat drums from the 1991 release?

Gonna go for an all out Trance track, this is excellent stuff,

NOW you're talking. A classic from the golden era that represents the genre well. Matt Darey (one half of Lost Tribe coincidentally) was untouchable around that time.

What's this you say about Binary Finary and boards.ie? They were trio of producers from England I thought...

Edit: You're right, Matt Laws is the guy's name.

Here is a legend of a post if you are into music production, I have read this a couple of times now,

Edited original post,

I remember hearing this first at Homelands in one of the big tents. I only heard this track again recently and it instantly brought me back. Quality breakdown

WOW, thats a great piece.

I love the syncopated voice at 01:26, i haven't tried to do anything like that production wise yet, its sounds brilliant.

And at 03:23, I would venture as far as to say it has a very Trancey sound of it, but all combines well at the end with the 303 sounds back in and voice.

I was going to post this one!! I first heard it on a free Mixmag CD by Nick Warren, Tech Trance I think it was called, and it was the last track. No word of a lie, I listened to it non-stop on my CD walkman (the size of those things!) for the entire month of February after first hearing it. It's still one of the best (and most memorable) tracks I've ever heard.

I havnt had time to listen to this properly yet, i was amazed to discover that Steve Davis the 6 times world snooker champion is a DJ and a collaborative producer,

He is supposed to be a very,..... very dark horse by all accounts.

Never heard him mixing yet, but if he is half as good as he was at snooker?

He must be better than Idris Elba?

Love this, it has so much power and flow to it, it really pulls you along with it,

Wasn't Nigel Benn the boxer at it in the 90's as well?
