Well I am an electronic musician, but pianos go wonderfully with Trance. Especially the old school stuff. Robert Miles is more spiritual/new age-ish trance, but the piano still sits well with electronic sounds. In fact it almost seems like a better fit than some 'traditional' genres. It just floats above the beat, with a sweet, spacial quality that seems to carry the melody very well. Of course you won't be using a huge ballsy piano, and very likely you won't be using much below middle C either. It lends itself to a solo melody with no real chords to speak of. It's all in the style. (as always)

I am a piano man too. I rarely play without it, but there is always a choir, pad, and string track right next to it that I can bring in to add to the great sound of the piano. I love the Bosendorfer Piano on my EX88. Use it more often than not! My second most used sound is tied with the Elec. Piano and the EX Combi Dying Star.

Later,
Cory Cool
