I listen to DJ Sammy, bt, paul oakenfold, bus stop, and any, as I call it, "organic techno"(techno with real instruments) such as joe satriani or blue man group. Also all the groups listed below...
Well, if you're looking for some new trance music, stop by your local best buy or go to www.bestbuy.com and find a cd called "A Trip In Trance" This is a 2 cd package and both cd's are packed full of trance hits. Here's a list of the artists:
Midtone, sonorous, above & beyond, push vs. Globe, hemstock & jennings, hiver & hammer ft. Javah, supakane, dj cor fijneman ft. Jan johnston, darren tate vs. Jono grant, gtr, holden & thompson, oceanforce, paul van dyk, aluna... CD 2: northbound, traxxor, dj blackbird, khaan, inqdine, bee dee, evangelion, inner vibes, privilege, dj peke, trancepulse inc., dob xl, dj tosh, nb, szartd&trancejax, gate 42.
Also look for the water dance music cd "this is trance" its a bit more "mainstream" as far as trance goes.
For a change of pace, check out happy hardcore. The only cd I've ever see of it is called "happy2bhardcore" It is speed techno with rockin beats and goofy vocal effects. Another great subgenre is drum and bass/breakbeats. I don't think either would be good by itself, but together they make for some interesting songs. A good cd for that is xperience drum & bass.
Finally, last but not least, chillout. Its like coldplay or radiohead on sedatives. Or dido. Its all very mello and soothing. Good for sleeping. Just look around for chillout, as it is one of the more popular subgenre for collections.
If all else fails, locate yourself a copy of dance dance revolution for dreamcast/playstation/ps2 and dance your heart out.
