It may not be 100% Trance, you may even classify this as Eurodance. But come on, it's Calvin Harris!??
What the heck? I had to post, mods feel free to move if you find relevant

Calvin Harris told Zane Lowe of Apple Music 1 about the song, “I definitely have very defined sort of likes and dislikes for music and artists. And one of my likes is an Ellie Goulding angelic vocal. One of a kind. You’re not going to get this from anyone else. Ellie can do a lot of different things, for me, this is my absolute favorite thing that she does, and only she can do it, in my opinion.”

He continued, “When I started making music, I was 14. It was 1998 and ’98, ’99, 2000, 2001 was for me kind of formative trance and house era. So what I did usually was just take bits from that and put it in a new context. But this time I thought maybe I’ll just try and maybe more recreate something that could be from back then… The only thing that I think makes it not sound like it’s from 1996 is the kick drum, because the kick drum’s pretty banging.”

It's probably worthy of being classed as trance more than 95% of trance so its worthy to be added into here.

Its actually not that bad, a little cheesey sounding but I enjoyed the first listen.

It almost seems like Harris heard DJ Heartstring and decided to do something similar?

Not Trance for me but I do quite like this. 143bpm too.

Worth a shot right? 😂

And on that note...

I'm personally not a fan of this - never was a fan of this style, plus the vocals are too 2023 for me here. But that's just my taste.

Updated the thread with a bit of what Calvin has to say about this track!

He continued, “When I started making music, I was 14. It was 1998 and ’98, ’99, 2000, 2001 was for me kind of formative trance and house era. So what I did usually was just take bits from that and put it in a new context.

I am so surprised lol, I would have never expected this little beauty was produced by someone housy/popy as Calvin.
