"Trance is a genre of electronic dance music that developed in the 1990s. Trance music is generally characterized by a tempo of between 130 and 155 BPM, short melodic synthesizer phrases, and a musical form that builds up and down throughout a track.
Early in the 1980s the German composer Klaus Schulze composed several albums of experimental "space music" which was highly atmospheric and sequencer-driven. Some of these songs share many similarities with early trance music and are sometimes categorized as trance. Predating Schulze's 1980's releases however was Jean Michel Jarre's Oxygène from 1976 and Equinoxe in 1978. Jarre, who experimented with the similar styles of atmospheric experimental that gave rise to Schulze's 1980's efforts and the many others that followed is widely regarded as the godfather of the genre."
