It is definately trance, but it is a much harder more edgey version many times based around 1 or 2 word samples. Labels such as ClusterF*ck and Routemaster (home to artists like chris liberator and d.a.v.e. the drummer) have coined to the term "hard acid tecno" to describe the sound, which I think is appropriate. It is one of those situations in which you know it is trance, but you just don't want to call it trance. :)

It is trance! Just a harder version, call it hard trance or acid trance if you want. It's the same old trance theme using harder more techno like sounds. Just because they are using similar sounds/gear as other techno producers doesn't make it techno IMHO. Gerald Jeff Richards wrote: > > ok, i was just wondering what everbody thinks.
