Description

The world's first encyclopedic book (genre: entertainment, music books) on the history of Trance House & Progressive House dance music. The book discusses the current trends of the massive rave (dance festival) scene in North America, as well as correcting certain European authored falsities regarding the history of a part of our scene. A breakdown is given of various styles (sub-genres) of House music found throughout the scene, by the period in which they emerged. Terms such as EDM, Trance House, Progressive House, Trouse, and Trance are defined in laymans terms.

The book references over 60 deejays or producers, discusses various comical urban youth terminology found in the club and rave scene, as well as explaining the often confusing history and meaning of the term Trance music. A profile of the world's largest nightclub, Privilege Ibiza is included.
