Top 20 Irish (with Northern Ireland), Welsh and Scottish Trance Producers selected by Visions Of Trance

Trance, rooted in German techno and British rave culture, first appeared in the late 1980s and became the most popular form of electronic music in the 1990s, reaching its peak commercial success at the turn of the new millennium. Through his rich and long history of trance, he has been responsible for some of the world's most groundbreaking dance recordings, elevating DJs to near-divine status before suffering the inevitable decline in popularity. Here is my personal ranking of the Top 20 trance music producers from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. I have learned about their music over many years. Ranking of favorites who do not necessarily have to be seen as the best. I simply reach for their music and it is the closest to me. The order on the list was determined by the taste in music, releases in labels and the number of songs. Released albums and compilations also had a significant impact on the position in the ranking. There is one duo on the list. I allowed myself to include the legendary Sasha in this list. Even though he had only a few trance tracks, his progressive music on the border of progressive trance and progressive house had a significant influence here. I encourage you to familiarize yourself with the works of these producers.
