The ultimate music for improving your concentration. Great for studying, writing papers, reading long books, ect. Has a great beat to drown out all distractions but no words to distract you.
Fuck the mozart effect, i'm gonna listen to some trance while I write my report.

Trance is not a genre of music, but instead, a flow, an element. A true conveyance of human expression, culture, and diversity. Trance is not a style, it´s a way of music which gives expression to euphoric emotions from within yourself.
Once you have trance, you can turn it into whatever you want. Trance is the epitome of sound, the sound men was looking for, but instead that sound ended up creating himself.
Trance is so much more than music.................

Girls like to dance. So if you want to meet girls, go to a trance club. Thats how I met my wife.
Song:Im not fooled - by: John 00 Fleming - Album: Creamfields. I was lsitening to this song when I was re-united with my wife after spending 1 year in Afgan and 1 year in Iraq. It was also the same song I listened to when I had to leave to go to war and cryed like a baby. Trance music can enhance your true emotions and adapt to any situation.

A form, or a state, of traveling between nearby star systems, and to a lesser extent, between galaxies with relation to epic, melodic, and/or uplifting trance music.
After listening to the trance song, "Elements of Life," by DJ Tiesto, Kensuke took a one-way, first-class flight to the closest star system, Alpha Centauri.

Trance music is experimental electronic (opposite to instrumental) dance music which orients around harmonious sound textures (a.k.a. melody textures).

It originated back in late 80's but became an official genre in 1993. Since then trance producers started to form definition in various ways, what led to creation of many trance sub-genres.. Some of the most known are:

(1) Progressive trance - lowers ratio between melody progression and melody texturing to some solid level..
(2) Epic & Anthem trance - emphasizes sound melody more than melody texturing. This trance-sellout led to big disappointment for original-trance listeners
(3) Psychedelic trance - changed the sound texturing dimension.. original trance tried to make a repetitive sound by combining complex layers of melody textures.. psy-trance tried to make it more progressive in time - by making it more complex in gating

Opposite to trance is techno - which orients around non-harmonic (percussive) textures.

A type of Electronic Dance Music. Reached it's peak in the late 90's where Trance actually became somewhat mainstream in the U.S.
Although not as strong as it used to be...Trance is far from dead. Rather it is simply just evolving into different forms(Progressive Trance is the style now these days).
Popular in Europe.
Trance...best music ever.

To put it simply...The best music ever devolped. Uses a pulse pounding beat and uplifting, euophoric melodies. Trance music can be listened to under any circumstances: Getting pumped b4 a game, get wild at a club or party, speeding down the freeway, Chillin in a lounge, sleeping too, even trippin out...
