I know most of you on here hate electronic music, but I know there are some trance fans out there. I think trance can be some of the most beautiful music out there if you find that right tracks. Uplifting, goa, progressive, hard, whatever style I just want to hear some new tunes.
BaltoABOVE & BEYOND DO NOT PLAY TRANCE ANYMORE AND ONLY PLAY PROGRESSIVE HOUSE/TROUSE. For fuck sake learn what REAL trance is, nothing you listen to is trance, the group therapy album while great does not have a single trance song on it

There's two ways to say everything. I'm not saying he's not right, just that he doesn't need to be an elitist prick about it. I personally hate the whole "edm" thing too. I'm very much a deep house and techno fan, but unless its a blatantly obvious mistake (like calling avicii techno for example) I'm not anal about calling people out on genres, because if someone enjoys the music then fuck it, that's a good thing. If someone's stoked on above and beyond shouldn't one be grateful they're not listening to Steve aoki and praising him like he's a god of dance music? I dunno, maybe I'm missing something here.
http://youtu.be/ysFsa9Q-OlYThe difference between trance and progressive house/electro is the same as the difference between classic rock and death metal, yes they use the same gear and instruments but they are NOT the same

dude i'm not arguing with you, i know there is a big difference. i'm just saying you don't need to be such a douche about it to people, it's just music. also i'm not sure at which point that implies i listen to hardwell and tritonal but that's a different conversation.

With regards to the last question, yes it's good, but if you listen to a large amount of electronic music the difference between trance and current A&B is as obvious as that between Avicii and techno. In BPM alone, it's pretty easy to distinguish the two, although I'm in no way saying that's the only difference.

Although I try not to be, I find myself pretty anal about categorizing songs in genres. I don't like when someone calls a drum and bass track dubstep, or trance house, even though I know it really doesn't matter. But anyways, there is some progressive house out there that is pretty good- https://www.youtu.be.com/watch?v=asZ9sIsnOS4
I know some of these tracks could be argued on the trance side, but in my mind they are really house. But whatever, this is a trance thread so get back at that!
How the fuck has no one mentioned Neelix yet? Been into Psy, prog for a while now.
Also Ace Ventura
It all started with Tiesto & Scooter back in the old days, but for me the legends are "Galaxee", a Trance band from Norway, i still love this song so fucking much that it's fucking ridic...Nostalgia as fuck, brother.
