A euphoric electronic dance music genre that's the love child of classical music, house & techno. In essence classical music for the dancefloor or 'the next generation of classical music'.
One of the most uplifting, beautiful, spirtual & at times religious types of music available today (although it composes today of a fragmented genre with many subgenres now available). Trance at times can be very ambiguous because of this fragmentation along with Trance remixes of contempary pop & rock music added for good measure.
Often symphonic / orchestral sounding in form it uses classical forms in melody & chord structure. Binary & Minimalist forms an example along with use of classical piano & organ. Fused with the four to the floor beats & rhythm structures of House & Techno. As such many classical composers & Classically trained piansts have fallen in love with the genre composing there own trance tracks either produced by well known Trance producers or by themselves.
Because of the similarities both Trance & classical music works can be converted or translated into versions of one another.
Although the Rhythms employ patterns more like Techno, Trance was termed 'Atmospheric House' at it's emergence by some.

The breakdown is often considered the heart of an Trance track, especially one of the euphoric variety & is often very emotional. It can either overcome the whole club with joy or make everyone spantaneously burst into tears, yes even with out the use of narcotics.
If only Vivaldi, Mozart & Bach could see what this has become now, they would be reaching for the lasers, glow sticks & there JP 8000 synthesiers shouting 'Trance Music!

A Pussy-Trance happens when life is unexpectedly and sometimes terribly disrupted and/or turned upside-down, because you've become infatuated with a "She-Devil." Everything becomes secondary to this woman. She has literally become the center of your universe. Your friends and family can see it, but you are totally blinded to it, and completely hypnotized by her. This often happens to unattractive males, or guys who have the confidence of an old dog, that knows its moments away from being euthanized.
"Those Bouncers weren't paying attention, they' were all stuck in a "Pussy-Trance." He crashed his car because that jiggling, jogger, in yoga pants. put him in a "Pussy-Trance." "No dude, I'm staying home tonight. I really don't feel like getting sucked into a Pussy-Trance and spending all my money again this weekend!" Many a man has fallen victim to girls, using the magic power of the "pussy-trance," to drain their wallets and go home with someone else.

The aim of Trance music is to give you a feeling of 'high' from the sound of the high musical keys used and the repeating of the beats that are between 125 bpm to 180 bpm. The nature of the songs have long intros, long endings, key change, fast interchange, happy melodies and classical music. It has many sub-genres that encompasses different electronic dance music mix such as techno, progressive house, deep house, pop, euro dance. For example, progressive trance can be a hybrid of trance with pop, classical, opera, techno and house elements. Although trance is hard to dance to in a clubbing environment, trance events are state of the art high tech laser shows with dancers and trapeze artists with superstars dj's. It truly is a music that does not appeal to everyone but to specific people who appreciate quality in their music and gives them an uplifting feeling that is unique and can only come from trance music.

Trance music is unique to other electronic dance music.

the trance (zoning out) a non-tech person goes into when lost at an IT Tech meeting when the Tech people start throwing around terms like xml, url, code validation, parameters, servers, etc.
Melissa - "What was the matter with you in that meeting? You were in another place."

Ann Marie - "I had nothing to contribute in that tech meeting. All that talk put me in a cyber trance."
