I'm not entirely sure if it was the first one I heard, but it was the first one that made me addicted to trance:

Astral Projection - People Can Fly

It's still my favourite track Smile

I think it was out in 1996 and was played a lot on MTV Europe and VIVA...I remember the really cool 3d-animated video for it Very Happy

Disco Citizens - Footprint
Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar
BBE - Seven Days & One Week
BBE - Flash
Agnelli & Nelson - El Nino
Chicaine - Offshore

All still fresh as the day of release! Very Happy

Chakra - Home
Freefall Ft Jan Johnston - Skydive
Ayla -Ayla

DjOhn · **Posted:** Sat May 25, 2002 6:34 am

Kamaya Painters - Endless Wave(Albion Mix)

Above&Beyond · **Posted:** Sat May 25, 2002 8:44 am

docsavage · **Posted:** Sat May 25, 2002 9:00 am

It was a Man with No Name track, although I don't remember the name of the track. Second track was Astral Projection's Enlightened Evolution, followed by the Oakenfold remix of Olive's You're Not Alone.

All off a site called the Temple, one of the first mp3 sites on the net. So underground, it existed only as an IP address. I'd spend like 5 hours on a 14.4 to get one track!

White_Lightning · **Posted:** Sat May 25, 2002 1:37 pm

erm good question, probably these mainly. but a progression from happy hardcore/rave really got me into trance stuff mainly around 97

cafe del mar (the orignal)
bt- flaming june (not really trance though)
3 Drives- Greece 2000 (the first version that was released)
Push- Universal Nation
binary finary (the first one released
chicane- offshore
AmenUK- Passion (pvd mix)
camisra- let me show you (is it trance not sure)
ayla- ayla
HUMATE- LOVE STIMULATION!!!!!!
Naylin and Kane- Beach Ball

then the later ones:

Verecocha- Carte Blanche
Blue Adonis- Disco Kop
VDM- Orion city
Armin- Comunication
rank 1- airwave
4strings- daytime
dutch force- deadline
system f- out the blue
blank and jones- cream
Transcend- Cascade
Pulp Victim- The world 99
svenson- clubbing on sunshine
Lovechild- Liberta

but the best trance (from the 97-2000 where trance peaked) albums ive got are probably:

Innercity 99- Ferry Corsten
Gatecrasher- Black and Red
Platinum- mixed by Scott Bond & John Kelly

believe it or not my first trance experience was with Robert Miles - Children in 1997, before then i was into The Orb, Orbital...all the ravey stuff and prior to that the man himself Trent Reznor (9 INCH Nails) got me into dance/electronic music

zox · **Posted:** Sun May 26, 2002 7:07 am

My first trance experience was veracocha - carte blanche as i remember. that was the first tune i really like.

Ami · **Posted:** Mon May 27, 2002 7:41 am

Robert Miles - Children in 1997, still got that cd with childern, one and one, and 4Us, wow, still can sweep me off my feet that tune after all this time

same with BBE, sven days and 1 week, and chicane - saltwater
then i heard 9pm ,

First ferry corsten tune was Ayumi Hamasaki - Whatever (Ferry Corsten Remix),
but odd thing was, at that time when i heard them, i did not associate any of them as Trance, but i knew it was kickass music, kinda thought it was a dance Surprised

doh, stupid me, when i look back

now zip forward all the way to last few days of feb 2002 , mate reconmended me a few tunes, and fully introduced me to trance Very Happy

, finally i knew what it was

first was nu-nrg - dreamland, wow what a tune to start with, by end of that day, i got thro enough quality stuff

Aria – Dido (Armin Mix)
Delerium - Silence (Airscape mix)
Gouryella - Tenshi
Gaia – 4 Elements
Push – Till We Meet Again
Push – Universal Nation
Push – Strange World
System F - Elevate
System F - The Game
System F - Solstice
System F - Out of the Blue
System F - Exhale

and few others!

so thats pretty much the first tunes, that i knew i was listening to trance Very Happy

Dj Imy · **Posted:** Mon May 27, 2002 8:44 am

hmm, the first track i heard was Dance 2 Trance - Take A Free Fall, it took me ages to find out this tune was called...still KICKSASS

Also early songs I heard:

Mory Kanté - Yeke Yeke (released early 1995, thanks DJ Imy for reminding me on this one)

and Roos - Instant Moments....great track!

of course the songs you have mentioned above are good classics too Wink

Above&Beyond · **Posted:** Thu May 30, 2002 9:18 am

3 tunes i forgot about: Jam & Spoon's "Stella", "Right In The Night" & "Find Me" outdate all the tunes i mentioned in my earlier post. Just though id mention it...

Hint: for a tune that was made in 1994 "Find Me" still sounds fresh today. check it out... Very Happy

LordCrimson · **Posted:** Mon Jun 03, 2002 12:16 pm

was on my boss's computer at work listening to shoutcast, and Oakies EM at space, Ibiza was on. the tune that got me hooked was:

Brainchild-Symmetry C(Lange's Breakbeat Mix)

That's what got me started into listening to more trance tunes.

carlos - silmarillia
Dj Quicksilver - planet love
robert miles - children

ASD · **Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2002 5:50 pm

I remember hearing tunes like Gouryella, 1999, For an Angel, etc. when I didn't realy know what trance was, I liked the little I heard, but I never thought too much about it until tunes Better Off Alone, 9PM and Sandstorm came out. My interest level increased drastically and when Hurley and Todd - Sunstorm and Angelic - It's My Turn came out, I was totally converted.

Finne · **Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2002 5:56 pm

- Some 'Tokyo Getto Pussycat' track
- Sash - Adelante
- Rank 1 - Airwave

NandoMan · **Posted:** Fri Jun 14, 2002 5:11 am
