Forget the purism of the house & techno thread, this is where the hardcore hang out!
I know trance has been a dirty word round here & pretty much everywhere else, for a long time & for often good reason, so I chucked the word "Hard" in the title the hope of weeding out the weaker commercial vocal euro-pap. No links to Children by Robert Miles please? Okay?
Trance doesn't have to be all weak & hands in the air, all big breakdowns & even bigger quaffs! Nor does it have to be all soap dodging, jobless hippies with bootfulls of hash blocks & base speed! No, some normal people like trance music too, people like me!
I mean fuck, I joined BL back in 2002 to plug my own trance music, hence the name INGWE, my record label in the 90's
So I recently got a little more interested in trance music again, after getting back into writing music, & tripping in the studio, so I thought why not risk everything just to plug this much maligned genre on BL's EADD?
I'm sure I'm not alone in enjoying a touch of hynotic, driving trance music, but just to get the ball rolling, here's something that would have been issued on INGWE008 had I not run out of money in 2001. I do still have a few of these on test pressing!
