Well the technical definition would be music with repetitive beats, but actually trance music is regarded as a type of music that stimulates a neurological effect in the brain that tickles the endorphins and make them come alive to one’s consciousness to be expanded through the cosmic sound of music.
For me, trance music is all about dancing. That’s the essence of it for me, the dancing. There are lots of peripheral aspects, but the essential things, the kick drum, the tempo, the baseline being a constant, no chord changes, create a hypnotic groove that if you dance to it for a while, you find yourself being overtaken by the music, and then you spontaneously move your body, and then your body takes over, and then you can spend some time outside of your mind, just like an active meditation. And that’s good for the soul. Billy Cosmosis, DJ
