Lifeless electronic music of the 4/4 variety. Wishes it were techno. Signified by aggravatingly long drum rolls, low-frequency synth stabs opposite every downbeat and positively mindless melodies that evoke no feeling in serious-minded electronic music enthusiasts. Trance music is often favoured by unsocialized "emo" teens and grown men with ambiguous sexual identities.

Torrance is always working hard foe his money and he’ll make sure his girl is slayin. when you first meet him he’s very flirty. all he ever wants to do with his girl is cuddle and talk all night. Torrance is sometimes freaky and fight when necessary. Overall Torrance’s are the best.
