Recommend me some trance?

Wippenberg - Promised Land (Sphaera Dub)
Man am i loving this tune at the moment. Starts off really dirty with one hell of a bassline that has a cool uplifting ending (in sample).

Signum - Harmonic
The boys are back, after a year out from producing the due release a massive new EP with this as the B-Side. Quality track, very 'trancy'

Enmass - CQ 2007
Another quality track with a dirty bassline, this seems to be getting ever more popular which can only be a good thing!

Mirco De Govia - Epic Monolith
Thought i'd chuck in a bit of an oldie, very uplifting and epic

Plastic Angel - Call The Galaxy Taxi (Martin Roth)
Did i mention this was the dirty bassline post? This seems to be getting played be just about everyone at the minute
 
This thread is very much inspired by my weekend of trance. I got to meet Jon O'Bir on friday at one of the most fun trance nights i've ever had. There was a very small intimate atmosphere and the music right through from the warm up DJ to Jon O'Bir and then Paul Pearson who closed b2b with Jon O'Bir was spot on. The original venue kicked us out at 1.30 because not enough people had turned up, not to be deterred the promoter found another club with a spare room so we all trecked along to the new venue and carried on partying!! Completely random but very cool.

Then Saturday was Crasher Day, the line up was very techy which suited me down to a T. Mauro Picotto played some really dirty, trippy, minimal techno (enough adjectives there for you?) and finished his set with all the old classics; Lizard, Verdi and check out this video of komodo what an incredible moment. Randy Katana played next and having never seen him before i was very very impressed, boshy music from start to finish, just relentless percussion and energy it was fantastic. I'm really going through a massive tech trance phase so Marcel Woods was the DJ i was waiting to see the most and he certainly didnt disappoint! Those 3 DJs combined probably put on the best 4 or 5 hours of music i have ever heard in a club. Awesome stuff

Maor Levi - Reflect
Really nice progressive trancer, i've known about it and liked it for a while now but it took on an extra meaning after hearing it this weekend

Markus Schulz - Never be the same again (Coldharbour Club Remix)
Exactly the same description as before :p

Simon Patterson - Panic Attack
Trance meets full on psy in this belter of a track.

Randy Katana - Another Wave
Very bouncy and very dancy, much like the divini and warning track posted by smilie man

Marcel Woods - Dont tar me with the same brush
He opened his set with this track on sat, it's just a quality piece of tech trance

Whilst I do like this track, you can't deny that A&F are getting samey :(

Yep, and a bit too 'fluffy' for my liking. Their remix of 'Deems - Tears of hope' for example, the breakdown goes on foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever

Also i don't suppose you know much about Andy Bagguley? There is a small possibility i'll be seeing him at the weekend

Thanks Grrrrr, some great tracks there, must have been a good night :)

Im really liking Airbase - One Tear Away at the moment

Also, Airbase - Rest In Peace is very nice :)

Airbase -

I've just listened to the full tracks of both and i'm not to keen on the first one, the second one however is pretty cool. Needs to be cranked up a few bpm i feel but definitely worth listening to again :)
 
Ok quite a few this time round and i have to confess i'm putting up a lot of these for my own reference it's pretty tricky remembering millions of tracks. I still think there are at least a couple of you that check these out as well though


Emjay & The Atari Babes - Real High (AK47 Remix)
This track is from last year but i rediscovered it this week, very epic, very trancy, love it

Re:Locate vs. Jonas Steur - Nasty
Very 'electronic' would be a good track to pick up the energy a little bit in a set

Marcel Woods - Get the kleenex
Not his best but still a banging tech trancer from Marcel

DJ Atmospherik - Poker Cat (Will B's Texas Hold 'em Remix)
Pretty cool track i found, quite high energy

Carl B - Cursed
Fairly generic trance this one but a bit better than a lot of other stuff i've heard. It's got a bit of a dark edge to it

Hennes & Cold - Pressure
Bosh bosh bosh, you'll see what i mean if you listen to it :p

Kenidal Lopez - Heaven's Caliber
Not my cup of tea but i uploaded it for someone else so i figured i'd include it. It's very fluffy, hands in the air, long breakdown style trance

My first recommendations. Not particularly new tracks or anything, just ones I like at the moment. :)

Marcel Woods - Cherry Blossom

The Cherry blossom track is really really cool from 1.55 onwards (in your sample), ever since the first time i heard it the silly epic bit that starts at 53seconds has just annoyed me. When Marcel played CB at crasher he laid a vocal sample over top of that bit which improved the track loads :)

i'd say it was Tech Trance, but we could spend all day pigeon holing tracks

To be honest i don't think there is a right or wrong way of labelling tracks. It all comes down to personal opinion, stuff by marcel woods i would call tech-trance while 'life less ordinary' and 'rippin base' i would say was more electro
 
Afraid not, it's over a year old now. I've also been waiting to hear it in a club but alas i haven't yet :(

EDIT\ had a thought, maybe there will be more interest in it when their album (+ album samplers) come out later this year, here's to hoping!
 
Nothing super amazing but a few cool tracks i've been playing

Marc Marberg & Kyau vs. Albert - Megashira
Very cool track. A blend of vocals a big bassy synth

Albert Vorne - Ares (Mac Zimms)
Not really sure about this track, it's kind of cool but boring, but still cool

Adam White - Never Tell What You Think (Paul Kershew)
Good old fashioned trancy trance

DJ ECO - Light At The End (Lost Word Remix)
This has definately got that Jogn O'Callaghan sound to it, decent EP and this is probably the best mix

John O'Callaghan - Space & Time (Club Mix)
I wish he didn't use such stupidly long build ups in this track, it's still a decent track though. Taken from his new album

Jaytech - Genesis (Jimbo's Afterburner Remix)
Something a little different here, it's getting on a bit now but love it none the less

Few more tracks :)

Andain - Beautiful Things (Have a break, have a K&D Remix)
Everyone loves the original and G&D remix but this newmix certainly does it justice. It's kind of breakbeat-ish and incorporates the vocals well

Everwake - First
I've not been that big on melodic trance of late but this track really stood out. A nice breakdown with a quite energetic and uplifting melody

Joni Ljungqvist - I Never Tell You (Signalrunners Remix)
The Scottish lads seem to be on fire lately, loving this remix at the mo. Lots of energy with a slight techy feel to it

Kuffdam & Plant - Maziko
Damn, this is one hell of a tune. Very high tempo and with bags of energy, love it

Judge Jules - Without Love (Signalrunners Remix)
Another solid remix

Robert Burns & Hydroid - Magnolia
A really nice orchestral breakdown that turns into a really dark and techy track.

Trance aint as good as it used to be :(

Personally i'm loving the state of trance at the minute. My taste is very noticeably evolving and i'm constantly finding more and more artists and DJs that suit my style. Each week i listen to a fair few single releases and most weeks will find 5-10 tracks i like and maybe 1-3 of those i will really enjoy and still be playing in a few months time.

I'd have guessed Tyas before Ottaviani even though musically it makes no sense.

I think ottaviani is doing a live show again and he had all his kit at the front of the dancefloor last time. It takes up quite a lot of space so it think they'll put him on early so they can open up the frotn of the dancefloor for when it gets busier
