Forums still exist ?

I found this place via Bandcamp. My surprise to discover that oldschool forums like this still exist on the net. I thought all this kind of thing died long, long a go...

Trance music comes with an impression that stays with you for decades, there's just something about it that lands differently. So I hope to continue and reconnect more deeply with it again, alongside the folk who still feel the same here. Greetings from Greece.

I joined Trance.nu and then 1 month later it closed. I think I was 18 at the time or something. I still found other forums to enjoy music sharing, although some were piracy focused. After they closed I assumed the writing was on the wall and gave up on that kind of internet hobby, but always missed it. Reddit just doesnt fill the hole in the same way. The age of social media has ultimately been very disappointing in the amount of community and depth it delivered. Forums leagues a head, and I believe is a model that should thrive still, even amongst the youth. Maybe this younger generation has never been on a forum in their lives.

Welcome mate. I agree about what you say about forums. You might be surprised about how many forums still exist today, even with the youngsters. I come across a few when searching for inspo on this one sometimes. Dogsonacid.com is a DNB forum thats been going successfully for years too.
