It's interesting as 'trance' has changed in its definition over time so that a diversity of artists and music from different subcultures and generations now goes under that title. I remember someone saying that Waveform Transmission Vol 1 was 'trancey' - I still don't hear that. But now when people say 'techno trance' I think of someone like Timo Maas - commercial trance with elements of commercial techno, very derivative. Even Seb Fontaine is going down that route. It may be a personal thing, but I ain't feeling it. And, as for Oliver Lieb, I put him, rightly and wrongly, in the same bracket as Moby. I just don't get him at all. The most soul-less 'underground' DJ and producer I have ever heard.
