Euro-trance - Much of what is labeled today as 'trance' is eurotrance.
Binary Finary's '1998' is a good example. Also called melodic trance,
since not all of it is made in Europe.

Progressive trance - This is tricky. Used to be, 'progressive' was
used to differentiate a type of trance from goa (essentially
'eurotrance'). But now, 'progressive' has come to mean non-melodic,
more banging, deeper, and often darker trance. And it's often used
without trance after it (just 'progressive', which causes confusions
w/ progressive rock fans, who call that 'progressive',).

Goa Trance - Fairly melodic, often has a certain driving sound which I
can't quite describe, somewhat trippy . IMHO, A good example would be
Acidphase IV's "We Are Back", but commercial stuff like Juno Reactor
is also apparently goa. Paul Oakenfold used to play Goa a lot, but has
moved away from it of late. The best known example would be the Man
With No Name's stuff (most of it), also Hallucinogen.

Psy Trance - Very similar to goa, but as I've heard it defined, is
less 'ethnic' ('asian' or 'Indian') sounding. I'd say it's a bit
harsher, less melodic, and more experimental than goa. Electric
Universe - "Stardiver". Infected Mushroom seems to be a very popular
psy-trance artist

Acid Trance - Features the unqiue, 'wormy' sound of a Roland 303 synth
in a trance format. A lot of goa and psy also feature that sound.
Tilt - "What's This".

Uplifting Trance - Not really a specific musical style so much as
attitude, uplifting trance is positive, and have a pleasant effect on
you. Lange = "I Believe", or Kamaya Painters "Endless Wave"

Dark Trance - The opposite of the above. Dark and brooding, and is
often deep as well. Sasha's "Arkham Asylum" is a pretty good (I think)
example of dark trance. Also perhaps Sosa's "The Wave"

Epic Trance - not often used, but when a song is really really , well,
big, it can be described as such. Moogwai - "Viola" or Yahel - Voyage

Hard Trance - trance with a harder edge to it. (For lack of a better
definition). Christopher Lawrence generally plays Hard Trance. Can be
melodic or progressive. Prizm & Eclipse's Genesis is a great example
of melodic hard trance.

Vocal trance - generally just trance with singing in it. Usually a
woman. Vocal trance is generally uplifting, but can be dark as well.
Chakra - "Love Shines Through" (uplifting),
Elan - "Find Your Way (Van Gough Blissed Mix) (sad). Often used with
melodic trance, but can also be used with more progressive stuff, like
in Cass & Slide's Perception.

Dutch trance - trance from the netherlands has sort of a unique style.
Some call it 'cheesy',
but not all dutch trance is that. Just about everything by DJ Tiesto
and Ferry Corsten quality
as dutch trance. The "In Trance We Trust" series is also mostly dutch
trance. Vimana - "We Came" is an excellent example of excellent dutch
trance

German trance - Like dutch trance, german trance tends to have a
semi-unique sound used in it's synths. DJ Mind-x is a good example.

"Cheesy" trance - a somewhat derogatory reference to overly sappy or
forumalic trance. Often applied to the work of Ferry Corsten, (Most
would say System F's "Out of the Blue" is cheesy), but is also applied
to virtually everything a person doesn't like, or is no longer the in
thing. I've seen 'cheesy' applied to Goa, everything ever played by
Paul Oakenfold, and even Sasha

Breakbeat trance - Basically, it's just trance only with a broken beat
(like found in breakbeat). Instead of the being regular 4/4 (thump
thump thump thump), it's thump thump thump-thump thump, or thump thump
_____ thump). Best example is the Tekara remix of Mike Koglins
Silence. Most of Hybrid's stuff is breakbeat trance. Also, Talisman
and Hudson "Leaving Planet Earth". 'Funkier' than regular trance.

Tech-trance - sort of an unholy cross between techno and trance.
Someone who likes it should
write a better description and example. Very similar to 'progressive'.

Classical trance - basically a reworking (or remixing) of classical
music (or classical sounding music) into trance. Examples include:
Aria - Dido, William Orbit - Barber's Adagio for Strings (Ferry
Corsten mix), Spiritual Project - O Fortuna, Mike Koglin - O Fortuna,
or Lumanaire - Flower Duet. There's also 'opera' trance which is
pretty much the same, since the difference between opera and choral
classical music is in how many people are singing - several (choral)
or a few fat people (opera).

Pop Trance - Pop trance is basically a somewhat watered down version
of euro trance. Often is gimmicky. Examples are ATB's 9pm ('Til I
come), Alice Deejay's "Better Off Alone", and a lot of the Vengaboys
stuff.

Drum N Bass - Sounds ranging at a speed of about 165 - 175 BPM. Even faster than most HAPPY HARDCORE songs. Songs consist mainly out of constant snares with really fast hi hats. Bass is of course the biggest elemant in the songs. Very fast and very bass-driven songs. Due to the nature of the songs, most of them have a bar length of about 64 beats. E.g. Diesel Boy, Dara etc. You also get commercial drum n bass, which includes "Wiseguys - Start The Commotion" for example.

Klubb - I used to call this music "Dutch House". I still don't know what it's really called. Includes all the stuff by Klubbheads, some Alex K stuff etc. It has that bouncy bassline that is called "cheesy" by most people today. I love it though.

Uk Garage - Not sure exactly what this music is. Can anyone help? As far as I know, "Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This" is an example of this type of music.

Euro - All the shit at [ www.euroadrenaline.com... ] or at least most of it. It's these really cheesy and shitty songs that somehow make it big in Europe. They include anything by "Rollergirl", "Fast food song" etc..

Hardstyle - Hard trance has developed into a magnificant genre. This is now known as Hardstyle and includes djs like "Dj Scot Project", "Bush" etc

Hardhouse - One of Europes biggest achievements. Includes the magnificant HOOVER sound. Artists include: Lisa Lashes, Lisa Pin-Up, Andey Farley, BK (the king of hardhouse), Rachel Auburn etc. List goes on forever. Check out [ www.nukleuz.com ] or [ www.tidy.com ]

hey u sorta put words in my mouth....I never said that I don't like House at all....I can enjoy it quite a lot as a matter of fact....I've been listening to House since I'm 9 years old but never liked the commercial crap so we can agree on that.....and yes, prog sucks to my ears but I never said that all House can't be of my liking.

well if you find the right dj "progrevise hard house" is so much fun...i swear there is this one base sound that i have only heard @ stereo...the sound just sends shivers down my spin:)

I am not fan of hardcore..but if done the right way i will bust a move...that applies to any style.
