...I know everybody is tired of the genre/sub-genre threads. But I am so new to the whole EM field - still trying to find my way around the various styles.
Here is my confusion:
Uplifting as in "Dutch DJs with arms outstretched"
and
Uplifting as in "Greek post-Nitzhonot"
The same style or two totally different beasts??
(Yes, I did use the Forum search and Wikipedia and many other things - still not clear.)
Regardless of whether these two styles are same or not, can somebody post a “Best of Greek (post-Nitzhonot) Uplifting” list? Or maybe there is somebody on the forum, who produces Greek Uplifting?
Thanks.

they both are "uplifting" but they are a different style. |

well...nitzonot came in greece from israel and became a crazy trend for about 3-4 years...then slowly died in around 2001-2.in these days whoever you asked (especially in low ages) about psychedelic was refering into nitzhonot...it had become some kind of mainstream or something and until today people that are not so much in electronic music have this one in their minds when they hear about psychedelic!
anyway mst of the people have forgoten this one except a few.the only name i know that still produces is a guy called sanga...
the difference in terms between the styles i think that the one is uplifting trance and the other uplifting psytrance but man...so many styles...why go there?anyways...if you like search it! |

I searched for “uplifting” and found many posts that talked about uplifting mood or character of music: uplifting Goa, uplifting Nitzhonot, Full On etc. The only example of the Greek Uplifting I found was in the Nitzhonot thread. And there it was posted as an example of how great Nitzhonot is and how cheesy Greek Uplifting is. I suspect that track was not a fair representation of the style |

Well, I go by what I read on Wikepedia and here: that the Greeks took up Nitzhonot and transformed it into a new style called Uplifting – which no longer sounded like Nitzhonot. Hence, “Greek post-Nitzhonot”. I didn’t know how else to refer to it – so that people know I was not talking about Tiesto and Van Buuren.

Like I just said: Tiesto and Van Buuren
Stretching their arms in the air, while the crowd listens to a slow HP sweep through a 2-minute-long break up and soaks in all that hope and happiness. How else would you describe it?
Anyway, I know what Tiesto and Van Buuren sound like. But I still have not heard any Greek Uplifting, except for that one tune in the Nitzhonot thread.
Or is it a completely dead-end, obscure, already forever forgotten style that I should not even bother learning about? If not – can somebody point me to some “greatest hits”?

the greek version of uplifting was just rediculus, the most of it to be honest. hopefuly we don't have people playing this crap at parties anymore, or people who 'd ask for it. |
