What it was like
Trance is the genre people apologize for liking. It got left behind by every publication that decides which music counts, and the fans stayed anyway, which is why a trance room feels less like a club and more like a reunion of people who were told their thing was over and quietly declined to agree.
Nic Chagall and Bossi have been at it since 1999. Two Germans, thirty-odd years of records between them, and a live approach built entirely around the long build — the thing trance does that no other dance genre commits to, where a track spends four full minutes climbing before it gives you anything. In a room full of people who know exactly when the drop lands, the moment before it is better than the drop.
The Hollywood Boulevard room has the ceiling height this music needs.
Saturday the twenty-sixth, doors at ten, running to three.
