Tips

memory
出神 literally means 'spirit going out' - being so absorbed you're 'spaced out' or 'in a trance'. It's a perfect calque for English 'trance', which describes the same dissociated, hypnotic state the genre is designed to induce.
register
Used in music journalism and by enthusiasts; in casual speech, fans more often just say 'trance' in English or 电子音乐 (electronic music) generally.
