Techno trancier than trance

Gagi · Jul 5, 2020

Lately some techno started sounding like old trance, and people have posted a few productions on the 'techno' favorites thread. I figured it was worth making a thread specifically for techno that captures the essence of old trance well.

I've noticed more and more tracks like these. I think one of the first to really catch my attention was Enrico Sangiuliano - Symbiosis. Yes, it's quite slow but it has many of the hypnotic and acid elements of early to mid-90s trance.

Top track. Beautiful strings, pretty much the single most important element in the track that makes it stand out amongst the rest.

This one has got quite the wicked groove. Wouldn't sound out of place in a tech trance set in the 2000s era with its detuned saws and gritty bassline.
