Keyword: Experimenting.
And, never use presets!
Also, I never listen to trance-music at home. I find it better to seek inspiration from other types of music, or else you'll end up doing some dance-music clone that's just a mixture of 15 allready existing styles, kind of like tech-progg-house-bitch-fullon... or something..

experimenting
playing with sounds
doing what your mind tells you to do (if it says mainstream fullon, change your mind then  )
anyway listen to 10000 of different music. get inspired.
and Anders, tech-progg-house-bitch-fullon sounds like i wanna do it

The honest, but unpopular answer is that you find your own style simply by writing a lot of music over a long period of time. After a lot of work and time in it will slowly begin to emerge.
You can of course "work" at developing your own style, but for the most part it is a subconscious process. When I started making trance I had something of my own voice from fairly early on, but that was due to playing guitar for 10 years before I ever touched a sequencer. I developed a certain melodic sensabilty playing and writing music with bands that came through in my psy-trance work to the point that I can often grab a guitar and find out that whatever part I just wrote falls very neatly into the guitar.

i also play as d.j for a long time (more than 6 years) so you start to play what you like and than you try to make it in your own style(as to me tech/trance -dub reggae)...
listen to a lot of style...
much more music & style -much more knowledge for you
all my best
good luck

Think about whats your favourite style of psy trance/your fav. act.
Listen alot to it. Try to do sound like it + your creativity = you will get your style.
Do a lot of music. |

I don't think about style at all. Styles are just words, your music is whatever you want it to be. |
