I just want to say, in my opinion, no form of music is better than the other. To me, they all have their uses. See, it depends on your mood, environment etc... as to what music goes well. If I am at home, Trance is cool to listen to, don't mind it in a club really as long as I am going to hear that. Hard House is better in a club to listen to, full lasers going off etc.... but not as good playing it at home. I don't write any form of music off, like I said, it all has its uses.

but (if i remember rightly) german hardtrance was just the old name for hardstyle before the hardcore crew gang raped it. plus german hardtrance was usually played in hardhouse clubs

[Lisa]

I can honestly say I have not been to a HH event & seen a HH dj playing german hard trance, can you, other than C&J, but they get slted for it!!

[Mark 2]

For me, it has to be Trance... mostly euphoric stuff, sometimes dirty or sometimes hard trance.

 

I do like hardhouse if im in the mood but it all sounds a bit too samey samey to me now after bombarding myself with it last year..

 

Trance has always been in my blood since '96/97 and i believe its getting better and better again after a couple of years in the wilderness

[Maria]

If I EVER had to chose between Hardhouse and Trance (and I LOVE both), then I would most deffo without a shadow of a doubt, choose Trance

german trance is stuff like Dj scott projects or cosmic gate stuff. Listen to the bassline of their style of tracks and that is essentially german trance

 

My opinion of hardstyle that its german trance without the trance. Basically that style of bassline with a load of noise. Nothing at all related to hard house imo. Completely different sounding basslines, sounds - basically the only thing they have similar is the drums.
