The Music Theory Behind Trance?, anyone know anything about it Options

[slowintrepid]

Ok recently I've been trying to produce my own tracks (mostly trance)
I've been a guitar player since I was 9 years old so I know theory in genral. but the reason I got into trance was because the genre eludes me and seem quite complex (when in reality it's pretty simple I hear??)

anyways can someone gimme some info on what goes into a trance song (theory wise that is)

thanks alot

oh-
sorry.

no offense.

i'm not big into trance myself. but since you have a regular music background you should be plenty capable.

house music is straight-forward enough. and spacey pads are a dime a dozen in any softsynth or sampler you come across. if i remember correctly, gating is also popular so you can gate pads rhythmically to accent your beats and basslines.

the form is usually additive 16-bar like other kinds of house music, so it's a slow predictable grower and you can just build energy and break down once or twice in the middle.

for added flavor try experimenting with something like reaktor- which can lead you to textural material you wouldn't create or discover otherwise.

good luck.
