The 40 Best Trance Songs Ever – EDM Sauce

Best Trance Songs 1-20

Since its origins in the 1990s, trance music has been known to have influences from genres such as house music, big room, ambient, techno and even tech house. Today, trance music can be broken down into many smaller sub-genres, some of which include hard, euphoric and commercial, uplifting trance and progressive trance.

Even though trance music has made many transitions throughout the years, the euphoric genre remains to have a tempo lying anywhere between 125 and 150 beats per minute.

In the early days of trance, the scene was being pushed forward by the likes of Tiesto, Rank 1, Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, Markus Schulz and a handful of other artists. In the current state of trance, artists such as Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, Andrew Rayel, Gareth Emery and Markus Schulz continue to push the scene in a new direction.

We have compiled 40 of the best trance songs of all time. While this list may be subjective to some, this list includes some of the most influential trance songs of all time.

Preview W&W’s New Trance Collab with Armin Van Buuren Under … – EDM Sauce

Posted: at 9:21 pm

True W&W fans know the Kings of Big Room didn't start out making Big Room House, but were well respected Trance artists first. After having formed as a duo in 2007, W&W released many Trance tracks up until around 2013 when they made the switch to Big Room. In between then, they had released many singles and even a full album on Armada Music called Impact'.However, they'rebest known in the TranceCommunityfor their track, Invasion', which was the ASOT 550 Anthem.

Rumors have been going around for awhile about a possible return to Trance Music for the DutchDuo, and they confirmed on Hardwell On Air Episode 300 that they were starting a new side project. Fans were ecstatic and the new name was finally revealed inthe Phase Two Lineup Announcement for Ultra Music Festival 2017. W&W was noticeably absent on the list, but when fans inquired Ultra about it, Ultraresponded look closer ;). After checking the list, fans were able to decipher that the never before heard about DJ, NWYR, isW&W's new side project.

W&W, or shall we say, NWYR, have taken to Twitter to say that they have lots of new music coming, and here's a preview at one of their new tracks, a massivecollaborationwith Trance legend, Armin Van Buuren.

Weve upgraded one of our most popular 2-channel mixers to create the DJM-250MK2. The new mixer is the entry point into the DJM series and is packed with professional features including the Magvel crossfader and Sound Color FX filter from the DJM-900NXS2.

You can also perform seamless blended mixes on the DJM-250MK2 using the smooth channel faders.

The upper half of the new mixer packs in several features including 3-band isolators, which you can use to completely eliminate your chosen frequency range. Each channel has its own filter inherited from the Sound Color FX on the DJM-900NXS2, which you can apply by twisting the dedicated knob and then add texture with the separate parameter knob.

Warm, high-quality audio from both analogue and digital sound sources comes thanks to the DJM-250MK2s dithering technology. The built-in sound card means you can connect the mixer to your PC/Mac with a single USB cable and use the bundled rekordbox dj application to mix music files stored on your computer via Pioneer DJ multi players. If you like to DJ using digital files but prefer the feel of vinyl, you can use rekordbox dj with rekordbox dvs plus pack application, which is also included, to control the tracks stored on your computer with turntables and our control vinyl (available separately). The software licences are worth a combined 248. Find out how to use them below.

The DJM-250MK2 will be available from early March 2017 at an SRP of 349 including VAT.

Mixing and scratching on the DJM-250MK2 feels instinctive and effortless. The Magvel crossfader taken from the flagship DJM-900NXS2 mixer is accurate, smooth, and durable for more than 10 million movements. Precise, fluid mixes are a breeze using the mixers channel faders, and the 3-band isolators give precision across the highs, mids and lows. You can use them to totally eliminate each frequency range when you turn the knob all the way to the left.

Get creative in the mix using the filter inherited from the Sound Color FX on the flagship DJM-900NXS2 mixer. Simply turn the knob on each channel to apply the filter, then create unique textures by twisting the parameter knob to adjust resonance and add tension to your performance.

Connect the DJM-250MK2 to your PC/Mac using a single USB cable. The USB connection supports sound input and output, so you can record your mixes to your computers hard drive.

The DJM-250MK2 comes with free licence keys for our professional dj performance applications, rekordbox dj (requires rekordbox version 4.3.0 or higher, available from 1st of March 2017) and rekordbox dvs, worth 248 combined.

Album Review: UNEARTHLY TRANCE Stalking The Ghost – Metal Injection.net

Posted: February 28, 2017 at 8:14 pm

Unearthly Trance had quite a run from 2000 to 2012; five albums and a plethora of splits with bands like the mighty Endless Blockade and Minsk, along with several demos and a few solo EPs. But then they decided to call it off and Serpentine Path happened. Nothing wrong with that, always sad to see a good band go, but Serpentine Path has been plenty good. And then a 2015 announcement came. Unearthly Trance were back in business.

Having been around for over thirty years, I get it when someone or ones want to hang it up and move on. Its the natural progression of life. New things come along and you sink into them whether out of comfort or bitter acceptance. Its easy to think that nostalgia is sometimes wringing blood from the stones but Unearthly Trance really werent gone for very long. Stalking the Ghost is their sixth full-length and first one in six-and-a-half years.

Stalking the Ghost is familiar territory. Unearthly Trance didnt seem to step away to try and find a breath of fresh air or let ideas stew. And the album doesnt sound rushed either. Its like a reunion of old ideals/expectations done right. I mean, its doomy/sludge done well without trying to dial in the harshest distortion ever. More so, its the moodiness that Unearthly Trance dials in that keeps you there, adrift.

The album opens on Into the Spiral, a slow banger that never goes for an assault, but also gives us no introduction or b.s. build up. Its immediately groovy and heavy, setting the mood perfectly. But it may also feel a bit misleading because from here on out Stalking the Ghost actually sounds more like its being played in a dark, empty haunted house.

Its more of an ethereal experience. Its the moody, heavy band come back to haunt. Its infectious sometimes, and Unearthly Trance can do a great job of, well, putting you in a trance. Sometimes songs get a little faster (Famine) but, as youd expect, its the emphasis on the slower.

Whats more, slower music does run the risk of losing attention and Ill admit that I drifted off almost every time I have spun this record. Its likely my attention span but Stalking the Ghost isnt reinventing the wheel either. The final two tracks are what really lost me. It reached a point where it felt more like a slog.

Honesty, if you really want to get into this I suggest some herb. Its a heavy album that needs mediation and a spacey disposition. I think its most appreciate that way. But that could go on a case-by-case scenario. And as far as cases go, Stalking the Ghost is a good album. Doom/sludge fans will find this not terribly aggressive or noisy but plenty heavy. And it doesnt need to be. Its got a Neurosis/Yob fusion that can draw you in. Its not the end-all or grand evolution of the doom/sludge genre, but it is a good incantation.

Score: 7/10

Stalking the Ghost – PopMatters

Posted: at 6:28 am

Underground respected doom merchants Unearthly Trance are back after a break of a few years with the monumental new banger Stalking the Ghost. From the opening song, Into the Spiral, where the New York-based band charge into the fray with the same kind of sense of purpose that made the title track to Neurosis ninth album Given to the Rising such a massive opening album cut, to the trippy album-closing song In the Forests Keep, it is evident that the time Unearthly Trance members spent since 2010s V. working on Serpentine Path records and Thralldom stuff also allowed them to meditate on what the next kind of statement should be from a band that is frankly somewhat underappreciated.

On the weekends I often meet at 3:00 am with a bouncer from a different bar than the one I work at, stuffing my face with mozzarella sticks while he tries in vain to find good vegan options at a greasy spoon in the wee hours of the morning. While we bitch about drunks we had to 86 often, we also tend to talk music. Last weekend we were discussing Megadeths Grammy win and if that was what metal really is now. Despite his favorite band being Baroness, my friend felt they were more of a proggy hard rock band now and that Megadeths style of thrash was too dated to warrant a current metal nomination. He felt like Gojira was the only band in the category who fairly represented how heavy metal has gotten and that even Black Sabbath should now be considered classic rock instead of metal.

While his points are interesting, I think it is more complicated. Sub-genres in the family tree of metal are as fun to name as all the ex-members of Napalm Death, and all lead back to certain landmarks. Whether you like your doom with a charred style of hardcore attached (Thou) or prefer your stoner rock and sludge with more melodic leaning tendencies these days ala Torche, Lo-Pan or Clutch, all of these bands are still cousins in the theatre of pain, as far removed as they might seem from Mtley Cre as can be.

Unearthly Trace mine a certain territory between extreme metal and the more traditionally Sabbathian where the vocals are generally harsher, a more torn throat and scorched earth style of doom that vocally might even appeal to some black metal or death metal fans rather than people who prefer their walls of fuzz with a slice of Josh Homme on top. Unearthly Trance also have less of a formal obligation to stick closer to hard rock forms all the time, something they share in common with also heavy as heck but experimental acts who likewise deserve way more love like Ultraphallus and Ufomammut.

Dont let me imply that Unearthly Trance are always a difficult listen. Most of their history is now on Bandcamp and will keep you thrilled and rocking out for days and days. For some, they will find it just too much of an audio ass-walloping, but most metalheads who like slower stuff will end up worshiping this band if they dont mind harsher vocals. Dream State Arsenal is positively bludgeoning, like the band Saint Vitus on steroids if Godzilla was singing after a three-day bender destroying Asia and drinking an ocean of whiskey. It is telling that the band just slotted nicely on a bill between Buzzoven and my psych rocker pals INN:IS.

Unearthly Trances appeal is that (like classic NYC band Unsane) they always have sounded dangerous underneath the distortion, not really concerned if they harsh your buzz or remind you the world can be painful. With more extreme acts like Inter Arma or even Deafheaven getting many more eyes on them than bands not named Converge have for the last decade or so, the time is ripe for Unearthly Trance to finally get more of the credit they deserve.

Famine is perhaps the highlight of these eight tracks that descend to varied depths, possibly the heaviest song on the record. The quality of the material is so high that despite this song being emotionally fatiguing enough that most bands would put Famine last on their record, Unearthly Trance keep you invested for four more six- to nine-minute length beasts AFTER that. Kudos and horns.

Borscht Diez’s Coral Orgy With Animal Collective Lured Audiences Into a Trippy Trance – Miami New Times

Posted: February 26, 2017 at 11:26 pm

The New World Symphonys home on Miami Beach has seen many interesting performances over the years. But none of them matched the event Borscht Corp., III Points, Coral Morphologic and Animal Collective, among other musicians, threw together for Friday night.

Part of the 10th iteration of of the Borscht Film Festival, Coral Orgy was hyped as a collaborative site-specific performance celebrating the cosmic synchronicity of sex on the reef. The imagery was provided by Miamis Coral Morphologic. A collaboration between marine biologist Colin Foord and musician Jared McKay, Coral Morphologics closeup scenes of coral life under water present sea life as you have never seen before. The brilliant colors of the sea creatures are always presented in tight close up, out of context of their habitat, allowing their natural color, movement and texture to define them. With McKays ambient music, these creatures become psychedelic experiences unto themselves. The images could have been shot on an undiscovered planet or in another dimension, for all the viewer knows.

During this event, high definition video of the sea creatures was projection mapped onto the five curved screens in the main hall of the New World Symphony. As can be expected by the Borscht crew, who pride themselves on being so Miami, the event started late. After a taste of Coral Morphologics images, the first musician to take the stage was Hot Sugar, a DJ/producer based in New York. The Coral images were replaced by digital projections featuring things like digitally created roses in opulent mirrors, which Hot Sugar has used in previous shows. It was all a bit dull, considering the anticipation for the main act.

Offering ambient music with a glitchy beat that sounded like Aphex Twin, Hot Sugar real name Nick Koenig danced at his deck as if in a rave, yet most of the audience sat on the floor in giant beanbags or the venues seating. After mixing it up by picking up an electric guitar with a clear body for added panache, Koenig asked Is anybody still out there? You're all so chill.

At that point I wandered to the Suntrust Pavilion for Otto Von Shriachs Bermuda triangle ritual. He was advertised as having a surprise guest, and what a treat that guest was. Joseph Keckler is a performance artist from New York who is classically trained in opera. He prepped attendees with a little speech in a nasally voice that could have never readied you for the baritone that sang in Italian about a bad mushroom trip (lyrics were projected on a screen). There were some technical difficulties during the laughing part (translated as Ha. Ha. Ha. on the screen), as the video froze to buffer and some unseen technician who didnt reply to Kecklers pleas of Could someone tell me what is happening? re-cued to the laughter part and Keckler resumed his operatic laughter. But the glitch only added to the charm of the performance.

After Keckler gave the crowd an encore with a song that revealed the perils of spying on a lovers text messages, Von Shriach climbed up a pyramid inside the pavilion to kick of his set. To images of Mayan pyramids projected next to his deck and black and white vortex animation that spilled onto Von Shriachs white onesie, he wrapped/sang in Miami Spanglish about another dimension. Below him Santeria-like priestesses writhed around in sheer gowns holding light-up wands drawing triangles on attendees foreheads with white grease pencils. Meanwhile, Von Shriach offered a cheesy instrumental cover of Under the Sea and sang about third eyes and the Bermuda Triangle with the mic echoing his lyrics three times (of course). Oh, and there was a half white tiger/half man guy with a scepter.

Prepare for the Coral Orgy.

After this trippy experience, it was back to the main hall for the headline event. As thrilling as the moment in the Suntrust Pavilion felt, the impressive, though relaxing, melding of the coral orgy and the modern psychedelic rock/ambient drone music of Animal Collective was divinely impressive.

A sort of musical breeze wafted from the dark stage below the imagery of coral tendrils that seemed to wave along to the spare organs and the echoey vocals of Avey Tare, whose voice was so processed, he might as well have been singing in a foreign language. The music built steadily, as layers were piled on, including electronic rhythms that sounded like treated hammered dulcimers, metallic grinding and hyper-stylized laser-treated chirping. Tare sang sparingly, his mostly unintelligible vocals melting with the music.

Who knows what the instrumentation actually was? The stage was dark and the coral orgy took the limelight. Cameras panned over undulating orbs that sometimes collapsed into themselves before puffing up again. Little pink bubbles drifted heavenward as layers of chirping and the cooing of Tare rode a wave of humming melodies. When the semen spewed forth, it didnt come with a tacky bang, but in little wisps, adding to the breezy quality of the event.

The pieces by Animal Collective bled into each other; only in spare moments would there be a slight shift in tone, as the trio which also includedGeologist and Deakin (Panda Bear wasn't there) in the shadows gave birth to a new song with new layers of rhythms, drones and melodies. The changes were as slight, varied and unnoticeable as the repetition of waves lapping at the shore. There was no chance for applause, as many in the audience were lulled into a trance. Still, you could hear plenty of chatter from attendees who could not invest in the spectacle, but it all bled into the drones.

Out of the 400 hundred or so people inside, maybe 40 concert goers were pressed up to the edge of the stage giving full attention to the band, below the towering colorful images of coral, worms and anemones. A lot of people walked in and out, as some slept on the giant bean bags or stared up into the heights of the towering coral orgy. During an ominous, heavy, warped, synthesized drone and whir, the camera slowly zoomed into the maw of a creature, revealing layers of lips that spewed a milky substance into the sea water around it. Red bulbous tendrils encircled a neon green center that may as well have held infinity itself an ouroboros from the co-opters of the ouroboros.

Is Mat Zo making a return to trance? – EARMILK (blog)

Posted: at 3:30 pm

Just last week, we reported onMat Zo making a "return to his roots" in a remix of a classic house track, "Son of a Gun." With its release, he called it a sort of answer to all of his fans that throughout his career have been asking him to "return" to his trance roots. Zo has explored many a genre and sound throughout that career as a DJ and producer, while the beginnings of his career lay with trance and the Anjunabeats label.

As we've seen little blips like this before exploring disco, dubstep, rock, and ultimately trance the question is, will Mat Zo land in one place? If we're evaluating based on his music in the past four years, the answer is probably not. But, the British artist continues to give us hints and more and more trance. This week, he revived a relic from his past, a track integral to his career, but in a new way. "Hurricane" was a track off of his first album,Damage Control, in 2013. The album was highly regarded, with impressive collaborations and style explorations all around, and successfully told a story in a time when just about every electronic artist was throwing themselves in the "need to release an album" club.Damage Control went on to be nominated for a Grammy and climb the Billboard heatseekers and electronic charts. Surely, the album was an impressive achievement for the British artist.

But of course, there is a creative process in developing any music, and this week Mat Zo has offered up vulnerability and what could have been for the track "Hurricane." In a personal post on Instagram, Zo explained his struggle with the creation of the track.

This is actually the original version of Hurricane. I didn't put it on the album because it was at a time where I wanted to move away from trance, so I remade it into the version that's on Damage Control. I played it once on a live broadcast and ever since people have been asking for it. Luckily I found a copy on my old HD. It's terribly mixed and partly unfinished, but I figured since people still ask about it to this day, why not just give it away.

With his trance roots seemingly in his way, Zo continued developing "Hurricane" into a track that felt more Chemical Brotherswith an Anjunabeats-style vocal from Eyes That Lie. Now nearly four years later, we get a glimpse at the track's original form. And from the date, it looks like Zo had this one working from 2011.The second trance release in a few weeks, "Hurricane (2011 Club Mix)," makes us wonder, is this something that will continue? But that's not the end of the story, either.

Zo posted another video of himself to Instagram, this time playing piano over a classic Ferry Corsten track: "Out of the Blue" from his System F moniker. The classic track has been made over again and again through its near 17-year existence, and it looks like Zo is toying with it too.

So now, he's releasing trance tracks, openly composing them and even more, he announced the return to his home at Anjunabeats for their annual Miami Music Week party in March. It's been some years since he's joined the party's lineup, and he's coupled the announcement with that of his Self Disassemble Tour that follows the release ofSelf Assemblein 2016. He's been clear this Anjunabeats-style will not be leaving us for now, and the Self Disassemble Tour will be genre specific offering just that style that fans always seem to ask him about. But performances aside,it leaves us wondering, what kind of music will we see Mat Zo release in the rest of 2017?
