"overall loads of classical/opera-infused trance tracks that will definitely sound familiar from horror/scary movies" - createdaneweruseraccount

junh1024 - "Gating is the name of the game here. With some classical/orchestral tunes that I vaguely recognize, but can't name."

"My biggest complaint was around the 31 minute mark, there was a heavy effect cutting the bass in and out that wasn't necessary and sounded off. But overall, well done!" - KevinMCombes

Hello everyone! Could you please tell me how is the sound/instrument from 2:07 to 2:45 called? It sounds like magic in my ears! Could you suggest me other tracks with this type of sound/instrument? Many thanks!

The first trance song I listened to was Johan Vilborg - Stellar, I initially discovered this song in a Cities Skylines series called Verville created by CityScapes, but it's not the song that introduced me to trance. The songs that introduced me to Trance are Paul van Dyk - For an Angel, Tiësto - Adagio for Strings and Armin van Buuren & Sharon den Adel - In and Out Of Love. It was around fall 2021.

But it was in 2024 with Rank 1 - Airwave and EDM Cow Cow videos that I listened to this genre more often.

Luminosity just announced the full line up for their 2025 beach festival! Some great names again, so.... see you there! (And hopefully lots of new interviews for me hehe)

I've been trying to track down this trance song I used to love, likely from around 2010–2015. It features female vocals singing: "When the lights go down, when the lights go down, ohh ohh," followed by a melodic drop breakdown. It's not Ellie Goulding lights. I can't recall the artist or exact title, and it’s been driving me crazy! If anyone recognizes it, I’d be so grateful for your help. Thanks in advance!

SOLVED: Paul Van Dyk - Lights. Thank you everyone who tried to help!

Question for the DJs - Do you change the track metadata for Trance subgenres?

For example, I change the track subgenre to "Tech Trance" if it's a less melodic tech trance track, however would you consider "Uplifting Trance" to be worth including in the metadata?

Right now in my library I only have 3 types of trance:

- Tech Trance (Key4050, Karney type tracks)
- Eurodance Trance (DJ Heartstring, Marlon Hoffstadt, etc)
- Trance (Everything else)

Of course, I'm sure everyone's library will look different. Just throwing a question out there! :)
