Heh my friend's name is john Miller, crazy. Anyway, I'm likeing the percussion in the begining, Nice synth lead and pad. Nice fx automation. This track would go well in like a high energy mix. Nice work.

Thos definetly sound really nice and energetic, one problem though, IMO i think that the bassline sounds kinda cliche. It gets a little old after a while, but thats just my opinion, Im really like the incoming snare and those synths are absolutely massive. You know what might sounds nice, a stronger kick.I really like this track though, the little atmosphere sounds are the perfect touch. When the melody progresses I start loving this track and it's got me hooked and the build up sounds really well built, but you know what would make it more energetic? Making the build up a tad longer and adding a deeper string that way that sense of tension is felt in the air. When the snare comes in the second time, it's a little too loud for my tastes. It's a really good track I liked it alot. Awesome job

Nice track you got here, man. Everything sounds good to me. But it just seems like i've heard it before. Not literally, but it's not very original.

It was sure killer at the beginning... All I can suggest is that the bass swells a tad - maybe a booster-accompaniment or something at the climax. Who knows. What a track this is...

This is great. Deep driving night time trance. Very well produced too.

Thumbs up mate, you got a good style going there and I love the kick.

I second Axotyl i that, nice production of yours.

Posted by DJDoubleView on Aug-30-2005 23:31:

thanks again for all your nice feedback!
i was actually just trying some new things and when i was finished half of the track was actually done. i liked it myself and finished it completely, but i would have never imagined that other people like it this much as well

omg you're a really talented producer. I love the bassline in this one But seriously, this track lacks alot of melodic elements. You basically use one melody throughout the track, and IMO it's even a rather boring melody. But move on to another project, and please keep that clean sound!! Cuz the sound was brilliant. Very pro!

When I saw the thread name I read it as "Jochen Miller" at first and tbh it actually sounds a bit like his style!

Very good production, simple but effective leads and the synths themselves sound really good - they're well programmed, eq'd etc.

One point to look at for the future to turn it from good production into excellent or even outstanding production is putting more detail into pads/atmospheric sounds in the breakdown. It's something that's very difficult to get right but is definately worth working on as it can make a track sound incredible if the pads and atmosphere sound like they're constantly changing. Automating filters on pads, having several different pad sounds and fading the volumes of them around and adding sutble one-shot sounds here are a few examples of things you can try.

The only other thing I'd mention would be compressing the kick down a little bit more and turning it up a bit so it's a bit more solid and has a bit more presence.

Good work

7/10

(Scale: 0 = don't bother, 1-3 = needs work, 4-5 = nearly there, 6-8 = releasable, 9-10 = outstanding)
