Tranceport

A lot of people ask me.. Why Tranceporter?.. y not Transporter, if u made ur nick from that movie? Well. both the Transporter movies are awesome, no doubt abt it. I mean, Jason Statham just rox! His accent, his attitude.. I just think of him saying... "Weight?" .. "About a Kilo".. "Destination?" .."A noble, by the name of".. a raised hand,.. "Oh! I forgot, Rule 2: No names!".. lol.

My nick is actually made up of 2 parts, the movie Transporter, and Tranceport, an amazing song by the great trance legend, Paul Oakenfold, the GOD of the DJ's. I mean, even my blog url also came from that "tranced-out" feeling. Trance music is really what it is, a voyage of mind.

I am not much into rock music, tho some Metallica,Linking Park,Evanescence,Hoobastank and System of a Down stuff is OK. I especially love Turn the Page by Metallica, awesome! But techno/trance is something really different!

Try ATB sometimes, all you die-hard rock fans! Andre Tanneberger from Bonn. His "No Silence" album is stunning! 11 years in music Production, 5 successful albums, one of the greatest DJ Producers in the world :)

Trance music comes in different styles. Currently hit style is Progressive trance, a mix of fast pacy beats, followed by still silence. Real trance music though, has its roots in Israel. The Israel government believes that, trance music is the main cause of increase in doping and drug addictions in the country. A dose of drug, followed by fast pacy beats of trance music, really hypnotise u a lot. Try to see people dancing in clubs to trance music, esp, in osho commune.
Its totally different, they move like robots, lol. Or even in movie Blade-II, when Wesley Snipes enters the club with the vampire team.

So, the Isreali people never really know, when there might be a police raid on the club/disc, where the trance music is on. This developed a unique style of trance music, called "Nizchonot".
It is packed with such fast beats, that you are forced to dance with frenzy. This style suits the Isrealis, because they want to spend their energy quickly, in minimum amount of time, to dance to trance. So that even if a raid ahppens, they can quickly bail out, with a feeling that they really enjoyed their dance, even in small time! One of the biggest proponent of the Nizchonot style, is the trance group "Astral Projection".

My fav trance artists include ATB, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, 4 Strings, DJ Astroline Lasgo, Ian Van Dahl, and some songs of DJ Tiesto.

Thats abt it! Do tell me more "personal views" about trance/techno music, and not the info on google.com..lol. And yes, I dont like Infected Mushroom, Dagda, Goa Gill and other pussycat trance artists!
