AHHG!!! TRANCE IS NOT TECHNO
I've seen soooo many situations where people call DJ Tiesto, Armin Van Burin, Paul Oakenfold, and similar artists techno and you are almost entirely wrong. There is the biggest fucking difference in the world between TRANCE and TECHNO. Yes they are both subcatagories of electronica but THEY ARE IN NO WAY SIMILAR. Techno is crappy ofton random noise making with a gay sounding bouncy bassline and virtually no melody except for random noise. The synths are ofton very jagged saw waves and usually has no or little filter cutoff.
Trance on the other hand is much more cleaner sounding and actually more melodic with more rounded sounding synths and a bassline closely in sync with the beat. The "arps" are usually filtered with a low pass filter so all the annoying high frequency's are filtered out that get that "screaming" synth that you ofton hear in techno music. So all you get is a smooth arp for teh harmony or melody.
Also another big difference is techno is usually in the upper 150-180 bpm (beats per minute) which is just fucking annoying. Trance is usually anywere between 120-140 bpm i think.
People many times have confused Trance with techno and sometimes they are dumb enough to say there is no difference. I have had even relatives before ask me "what type of music do you listen to again? Techno?" and they are so fucking stupid because i've told them time after time again that my music is trance and there is a big fucking difference between the two.
So those of you on here that cant tell the difference just remember techno is like fuckng random noise and trance is more melodic and no where as primitive. Surely trance music fans on this board can relate to what i'm talkin about this just bugs the hell out of me.Dopa Reviewed by Dopa on . AHHG!!!

AHHG!!! TRANCE IS NOT TECHNO
i really hate any electronic music seriously i cant imagine how ppl can listen it hours a day in their mp3 or whatever
but i must say its a good music to dance. but again, im not into techno or raves. i prefer big punk-metal slams!!
and i prefer melodic music with instruments, voices, solos, anything. really electronic music doesnt give me any emotions or nothing special.
but yes techno and trance arent the same, just like rap and hip-hop, punk and commercial punk, classic metal-heavy metal-power metal-death metal, etc etc

i agree techno and trance are way different. i dont listen to techno at all but trance i will on occasion, like when i am shrooming or when i am sober and i just want to hit the highway and drive like a bat outta hell. lol. but besides that all i really have to say is that trance gets me kinda pumped up in a sence so i have to be doing something exciting to listen and enjoy

AHHG!!! TRANCE IS NOT TECHNO
yea i love electronic music! it doesnt really bother me when people get them confused cause i really dont expect them to know any better, i dont listen to rap so i dont know the difference between rap and hip hop.
I usually tell people that i listen to techno thats faster than normal techno, cause if i said i listen to happy hardcore hardcore, gabber, industrial, drum and bass jungle trance psy trance goa trance they would be like.... "OMG REALLY?!!!?! i like DJ sammy!!", and then id have to kill them

dude wtf i guess there is no such thing as techno unles you wanna go bang on a bunch of stuff really fast and call it techno.....u guys are gay they sound the same... sure you can go make up subcategories for everything if you want to but there the same thing and some just sound different than others. You could say something like "this song is subhardcore terranian techno because it has 110 bpm and a 400 hz tune" but you will just sound like a retard.
