Unbroken1 I was referring to the Dutch stuff which sounds dated. There has been somewhat of a resurgence in trance like sounds and dynamics though in recent music/dj sets. The melodic techno (Watergate, Afterlife etc) as Beatport calls it is essentially slowed down trance. Much of cocoon’s recent stuff harks back to those old trance sounds. The Bonzai stuff seems to be regularly wheeled out too.
A History of Trance Music in Ten Tracks
Holden is Prog, not Trance, his stuff isn’t saccharine enough to be Trance.
Acid Eiffel shouldn’t be in there, Greece 2000 and a few other bits missing, but I’d happily play Humate - Love Stimulation to just about any crowd on the planet, it just makes me grin from ear to ear.
It’s a shit list.
There’s no Veracocha - Carte Blanche for starters.
can we debate trance vs Trance now?

As ever, lots of revisionism. Let’s be honest, which person partial to a bit of trance at the time didn’t cream themselves the first few times they heard the PVD mix of Binary Finary. Remember Jackmaster playing it a few years back to a so called cool crowd and it blew the roof off.
Jackmaster did some GHB and shit in a kettle and harassed a bunch of women at a festival. He was cancelled for awhile after that.
Looks like a De’Longhi kettle that.
Sacrilege.
