I've always been a trance man myself , but I kept away from the mainstream stuff cause it was so ... bland. You can ocasionally find some gold nuggets in the streat of rabit droppings at Newgrounds.
All that changed when I found out about Deadmau5 of course. Now I'm listening to alot of minimalistic and soft trance:P
Tiesto is pretty much overhyped imo. I am mostly listening to old Stuff.
I was listening Trance and Vocal Trance before I got into Goa and Psychedelic.
