Where do people hear good, new, trance music these days? The scene seems to be ever more commercial and formulaic and Im just not feeling the new sound. Tiesto and AvB have sold out, collaborating with pop acts to have wider appeal, and A+B's new song is predictable, boring, and sounds a lot like their entire last album. Im not sure what Schulz and O'Callaghan are playing, so will check their recent sets out, but does anyone have a source of good new trance music which is still original and true to the genre?

I just trawl Spotify and save on a playlist if any good. Spotify comes up with suggestions based on that playlist too.
I don't go for specific artists, just on single tracks or re-mixed versions.
I started out on the original house, then acid house. A good trance track to me harks back to the acid house style.
I'm 45 now and my 12 year daughter refers to it as dad music with a huff lol
Kinda strange as my dad listens to the shadows or the stones to which I used to call dad music.

PHer Rob Joyce has a trance music podcast - his latest is here: https://soundcloud.com/rob-joyce/rjtp-episode-78-1...
AvB a state of trance shows on YouTube are worth a listen. Even if you don't like the records he releases.

If that was playing whilst enjoying a hoon, I'd have a crooked blood-flecked grin on my face
Slightly O/T, but one of the finest trance tunes (IMVHO) was posted by dizeeee of this parish many years ago and I immediately added it to the favourites list on my 'tube account:-
