Giuseppe Ottaviani

Oh man, do I love his italian big room festival-styled minimal trance..
Just some dirty hihats and 303's and massive strings and synths..
Dude brought Me back to the angelic sounds of trance again...

better example, cued up

Edit: HOW????!!! I copied from one of his livesets...! Big grunchy balls!!!

Older releases were better. His new tracks are rubbish and very cookie cuttered to the mass audience he sold out and joined the EDM plur gang.

I'm also not impressed by Giuseppe lately, but think this remix by this Canadian guy Yelow 14 years after the original really is great:

Now I think that sounds more cookie cutter than festival acid bao-bow instead of melodies that sustains after the buildup.. not a bad remix but it even had a gouryella-styled bassline..

do you have any rxamples of other tracks/artists that have that melodic breakdowns with massive acid in the beat sections? would love to feature more than one artist when dj'ing :P cus THAT is cheesy haha :P

The whole point of massive acid is it doesn't give you melodic breakdowns.

His sound the last 10+ years has been very messy.
He had that clean/punchy sound that was making him stand out.
He was somewhere between PvD and Sean Tyas. Harder than PvD but not as crowded and aggressive sound as Sean Tyas. It was a good middle ground. Now I wouldn't be able to spot his work in a current mix.

I don't like those kick drums in his new works maybe Laurent Garnier - Acid Eiffel/Choice comes to mind for me

or this Polar Inertia - XLR8R Mix (13 May 2016)

His current sound - sounds like more a derivative of Steve Aioki, Hardwell, World Punx Mix and W&W that big room EDM electro house crap.

He is hurting his former fans who used to enjoy his older tracks and we want more of that or more evolved and refined form of it as well.

He is bringing in new fans that are sick n tired of cookie cutter trance with no edge... who the fuck needs a clap anyways? an offbeat hihat is more than enough! no joke

He is bringing in dumb fans who have no clue what his older productions and the quality they used to be in the past. All he is doing is bringing in more dumb EDM/big room fans and attention to himself,
