I understand what you meant, i just wanted to add another perspective on "personality".

perhaps he's seen what basshunter has done in the uk and realised that to get to the true number 1 in the world, he's got to release pop pap that all the chavs will buy in their droves, forever moving away from what trance stands for for the sake of a nice retirement fund.

considoring the amount of crappy vocal trance which is flooding the market now I am amazed if anyone can remember one single track the next day.
So it doesn't matter how much vocals producer put into their tracks. The end result is almost always that the track will sound as cheesy crap.

vocals,vocals,vocals.... boring....

its a total crap .

sample of

9. Armin Van Buuren ft. Vera Os - What If

can be found on myspace.

oh fuck that illness is contagious..

listening to going wrong univeral religion mix the only parts i can say i listen a trance track is 4.07 to 4.22 min and 5.34 to 6.18 min ..

extended mixx maybe is a bit better..
the other track ft vera sucks a looot
.

edit

ok extended mix of going eropng is good enough.

Disagree, I think it's much better, well anything is better than Going Wrong, but still, I like this one, there needn't be any remix of it.

agree here, good laid back stuff and melody wise quite strong.

Originally posted by TranceArmstrong has there been any good vocal trance lately?

what about trance remixes of other songs, as opposed to a trance song written with vocals? i like stuff like the remixes of delerium etc. its just that most trance vocal tunes the lyrics are just kinda well crap. i dont mind hearing trance remixes of other songs. any good ones recently?


also to add to the armin bashing lol
remember that interview he did where he hung shit on dj sammy for "ruining trance"?? have the tables now turned or something? hehe

trance producers should keep their mouth shut when it comes to certain things.

Solar Stone in an interview on trance.nu a few years ago:

Over the next few years, how do you think trance will evolve?

Rich: I'm more concerned about the state of the world at the moment, but the current climate suggests that most of the greedy manipulative money-making types are jumping ship, so the scene shall return to those who created it, possibly creating two split scenes, i'e a 'Pop Trance' which as we all know isnt really trance just pop music with a similar style of production' aimed at making money, and a Real 'Trance' scene, which is what we're about, melody and quality production for people who love music first
and foremost.

That's a fuking awesome statement!

I used to be a vocal whore back when vocals weren't running the scene.

I am slooooowly moving out of trance and into other genre's because the "pop" remakes or cheesy trance remakes that even 18 year old kiddies know is ridiculous.

Never been a huge Armin fan and I only listen to his show to hear some new stuff while @ work. Def not looking forward to the album and not looking forward to him live and playing the entire album.

funny thing is mel, that just 'a few' years ago, you were one of those 18 year old kiddies

I know and I was flying all over North America to catch these trance dj's I had never seen before. [That's what sets me apart from the typical 18 year old kiddies.. I also never used glow sticks in my life *proud*]

Now I won't even go unless it's free

lol

Now, don't ask me why, but I actually kind of like "Going Wrong".

I find it catchy, for some odd reason.

I won't be surprised if the rest of this album is crap, though. I'll approach it cautiously as I did with that daft "Shivers" album.......which, quite frankly......gave me shivers!

HEYO!
