Trance

Trance is a style of electronic dance music that developed in the 1980s. Trance music is generally characterized by a tempo of between 130 and 160 BPM, featuring repeating melodic synthesizer phrases, and a musical form that builds up and down throughout a track. It often features crescendos and breakdowns. Sometimes vocals are also utilized. The style is arguably derived from a combination of largely electronic music such as ambient music, techno, and house.

You can't say "it sucks" about a music genre if you can't understand it. For me, metal = garbage! Pop, dance, r&b singers are just some idiots who loves playback (most of them).

I just think it's funny how people who've apparently never heard proper trance music all of a sudden have enough knowledge to say it is "LOL TEH EPIC FAIL *jacks off*". It's just as bad as when people blindly say hip-hop sucks or metal sucks when all they hear are the most cliched, stereotypical examples of those genres.

Lack of appreciation for trance music + use of the phrase "epic fail" = obvious lack of intelligence and imagination....

LOL Trance. Garbage. Too funny. Although I can't blame someone for thinking that, based on how bad the tags are messed up.

LOFL @ Cascada, Basshunter, and Scooter being in the top artists. Where's Signum? Or Fictivision? Or Airwave? Or any of the other great talents who would better fit the bill of what "trance" music is. What a shit load of fuck.
