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.

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!

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