trance

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.

The Guatemalan Tractor-Trailer

The act of ramming a Taco Bell $.89 burrito in another's anus followed by inserting the penis between the gooey baked beans and soft tortilla layer while pouring an uncapped bottle of Tabasco around the base of the penis. An extra touch of culture can be added by screaming Mayan battle cries.
I've been dating this Latin chick for a while, and she likes to get freaky. Last night, we tried the Guatemalan Tractor-Trailer, it was amazing! Bad thing is, I don't have any Tabasco left for my wings.
