Tranceaddict Revolutions Volume 1

**Official Thread**

i think that all the veteran producers on the board should commit to making 1 complete 192kps track solely for publication on TA to show their commitment and love to the site

i for one am willing to make a decent trance tune and make it available to everyone on here

i hereby nominate the following to make a track and post a 192:

1. Haak
2. Endre
3. Bren F
4. Lightworks
5. Echano (another one please :P)
6. State of Matter
7. Luke Terry
8. MKS
9. DJ Sean
10. Emota

any more nominations are welcome.
when we get the final 10-15 tracks, we can burn all full quality mp3s to a CDR and ship out to some DJs/Labels

TRANCEADDICT REVOLUTIONS VOLUME 1

I can give it a shot even though I seem to be drifting away from trance atm.

Uhh, veteran?

Great idea, aside from the veterain point

Perhaps there might be a better way to decide who is involved, as there are other amazing producers around other than the ones you mentioned.

i agree with arctic... i know that there is a lot of good producers out there that people just don't know about...

Also, I think by having a select few people put on the "spotlight" will also discourage other producers and make them feel outcast in a sense because it feels like there is a certain "group" of elite producers that have their own world while everyone else is below... i feel that this board should be more of a community that doesn't exclude anyone instead of an elitism contest

I personally think that the producers mentioned above defintely deserve much more spotlight than me for example... they all have come out with quality tracks and contributed to this board a lot... A lot of them have quality tracks that amaze me by the brilliance and quality of the work

so my recommendation for this is... open the contest out to everyone... give everyone a chance... these guys surely are among the top producers on this board... but there are may others that just do not get the exposure they deserve... besides, if others manage to come up with an even better track than these guys, hey.. then they should deserve the spotlight right??


just my 2 cents

It took me three months to get from 'Feels like Flying' to 'Nothing to Live For' and you want another track?! I'm a lazy de-motivated bastard! It could take a year for the next one!

Anyway, I partly agree that if this thing goes ahead it should be open to more people than just the more recognised producers - the track should always be more important than the name. But that said, the more popular producers have reached their status in this community through continual hard work, improvement and talent, and if the new producers are dedicated enough then they will enjoy the same status in time.

A bit random, but that's my thoughts.

Of course, I don't class myself as good in any way, just to maintain my usual self-deprecating behaviour. j/k

Hey,you didn't write YOUR name in this list ?!?!

Thanks for the nomination, hehe. I'd definitely be interested in this.

i don't do solo productions

of course this competition is open to everyone! i just wrote down the names that came into my head when i think of good tracks i got from TA

see the problem is theres a large different between good and average, and if we are to compile tranceaddict revolutions it must be excellent with no average tracks...

so for those people who didnt get a mention, go make an excellent track and include yourself in the top list of TA producers!

if you read the first post i leave it open to people to post nominations of who they want to hear tracks from. a CDR will hold about 50-60 tracks anyways

Arctic: Im new to the boards (relatively) but not new to producing

I'd be up for it, no doubt. Some of the people you mentioned (myself included) would have to use different aliases though, depending on the labels you send the cd too.

Question: Would it be a mix cd or a cd with all full tracks.

a CD of full tracks is always more appealing to a label

some questions am curious i won't be doing this since i ain't "excellent"

must it be a orignal or a can it be a remix of something.
and you say post here, and later make a CD send to labels, is that possible?? after releasing your tune on the net?

tnx

excellent in terms of...not crap!! hehe, u know massive-anything that qualifies as a respectable tune,regardless of orig or remix or melody whatever

and yeah there will be 192mp3s on TA but a label will always want to remaster and change stuff if someone is lucky enough to catch their eye

but lets just get crackin on the tunes and see what happens!

came to think of one thing.... if the CD is going to be send to labels... what's the meaning with having the people that is already signed on the CD????

Not all of the artists themselves (to my knowledge) have been exclusively signed to a label, just their released or soon-to-be released tunes.

I'm not signed... Not quite mainstream enough, I suppose.

Yes, i'm well aware of that. I was pointing out that you aren't veterain ta, as I assumed he was suggesting. Regardless, you should be on this, as you're one of the best producers here. (Surprised you don't remember me from sc actually, I did have over 1500 posts there )

then if you fix a "good enough to be on the cd" track, it's a good chanse for you since you aren't.. heh

Have you ever tried sending it to some labels?

I remember you from SC You're one of the few people who would comment on each of my tracks regularly, haha. You and dj_terror.

If an artist here wants to get signed, why doesn't he just make tracks and send them off to labels that he wants himself? I don't really understand the point of these big "team" efforts that constantly spring up on music forums over the internet: the common things like "all-stars of blah blah blah cd 1," "2002 compilation of blah blah.com," "www.blah blah.com anthems #1." I know they sound cool, and they're exciting, but these things rarely ever succeed. Plus, to look at the technicality of things here: who's going to compile this cd, who's going to make the cd copies, who's going to send them off, who's going to pay for stamps and/or shipping of these cd's? Don't get me wrong, I support things like TA's Unite Part X, but those are just fun projects meant for us and have little promotional purposes. But when a project comes along that tries to involve the supposed "best" producers on the forums and get some of signed, even though these ideas have the best of intentions, they usually end up being a waste of time, hype, and effort. Instead, an artist who is serious about his craft and wishes to be signed is better of concentrating solely on his own work, perfecting it, researching the labels that would best fit him, and ultimately sending a select few tracks to those labels. Just my 2 cents.

Stan.

^^ i agree

Good points, but way I see it is there would be no "team effort." It would be as if you were concentrating on your own work, perfecting it as you said, except instead of sending it off alone, you'd send it to John (who I assume is the one offering to compile the cd and send it off). What this does is gain this forum some respect as far as producers go so there would be potentially more A&R guys browsing through here. More of a promotional thing for the whole site than the individual artists, as i see it, because a lot of the people on that list have releases coming up and would not do this particularly to get signed.

No hard feelings now anyone but these boards as mentioned should open thier eyes to the new producers here, or members of this site.

Ofcourse it's fun to be in the "elite" or whatever it is and be a veteran of this section/boards but as one of the "elite" you feel kinda bad when these kind of threads show up :/ you think alot of the other hardworking ants around here who worg thier ass of just to get 1 reply. it's a sad story but very true.

cheers.
thx for 2nd place

Yeah I agree Endre, and I do my best to listen to every track on here regardless of who posted it. However, a lot of the so-called hard-working newbies that post tracks here asking for reviews pretty much disappear the second their thread dies, and don't contribute by posting comments on other peoples' threads. There are of course exceptions to this, and I myself am pretty new to this forum of TA so I'm hardly one to be preaching, but I only feel sorry for people who get no replies when they actually put an effort to themselves.

But I digress. I like the idea of this compilation, even if it serves next to no purpose promotionally for me, hehe.
