Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and for over 18 years I’ve contributed to music magazines, disc guide books, mooks, and web media. As a writer my main field is Western music, but as a listener for over 35 years, I always try to keep my curiosity alive with the motto “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in bands, where I was a bassist who handled songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve played include bass, guitar, and piano. I began studying English in my mid-40s and continue to do so today.

Suddenly, but what kind of image do you have of the music genre called “trance”? If you’re not a fan of club or dance music, you might think it’s kind of flashy and just about getting hyped.

This article compiles a selection of beautiful trance masterpieces—dreamlike and brimming with euphoria—that we especially want those who feel the genre isn’t for them to hear.

Along with the latest noteworthy and hit tracks, we also introduce timeless classics, so take this opportunity to check them out!

Jorn van Deynhoven – Spotlight (Original Mix)

Spotlight (Original Mix)Jorn van Deynhoven

The intro puts a full-on four-on-the-floor that brings out a strong techno vibe.

It’s closer to techno than trance at first, but it gradually develops into a more melodious, trance-like progression.

This progression captivates the listener.

I think the blend of trance-like melodic rhythms with techno’s distinctive four-on-the-floor creates a harmonious effect.

For An Angel (Radio Edit)Paul van Dyk

For An Angel (Radio Edit)Paul van Dyk

When it comes to the most widely embraced form of trance in Japan, it’s melodic trance with strong, memorable melodies.

The kind of sound that laid the groundwork for the later distribution of compilations featuring trance remixes of hit songs and “Hime Trance,” which seemed like an evolution of Eurobeat, has the same sort of mood as this track.

Paul van Dyk is a very popular DJ in Japan and frequently visits the country, energizing dance floors time and again!
