Nice track, as always.

Just a couple of things I'll comment on:

Watch your clipping levels. I doubt the kick was originally clipped this much, so as long as you keep the input feeding into the master limiter/soft-clipper below clipping, you generally shouldn't get such results. My audio interface has a strange habit of saturating clipping distortion to a point where it becomes almost inaudible, but at times this becomes ineffective, and you can really hear it killing the atmosphere. I really wonder what this would sound like on a comsumer CD player - not good I'd imagine.

I also thought some elements were a bit unoriginal, particularly the riff at 1:22, and the clap at 1:36. Breakdown wasn't as inspiring as some of your other work I've heard, but still quality stuff.

Mastering could of course be better in my ears, but I would imagine it still being enjoyable in the ears of someone less competent.

Quite repetitive also, but otherwise nice work.

Oh, and of course don't forget to fade endings out long enough.

I could tell from the get-go that this piece was worth the listen.

The bassline is very warm and prog sounding. It's digital without being too harsh, and has a strange bite to it that is conflicting with the warmth of the kick. I really do like basses with that upper-freq chunk to them, it's inspiring in a way.

As for generic melodies... it's always good to have fillers before your real fire comes into play. Let's hope this pays off, as I can see the the atmosphere of the track is already warm enough.

This breakdown has a really good throb to it with that buzzing-saw patch on the bottom. The breakdown really soaks into your pores -- emotional stuff. The arping lead is good fun.

The track could probably use some more bass after the breakdown. THe bass sounds a tad weak compared to the other elements, and should provide a solid floor for all that emotion. The bass should make a solid surface for all that blissful escapades of pads and leads. Maybe if you could layer a triangle/sine-bass or something below it.

Otherwise, I really can't complain, I've heard some other stuff from you on this website, and you never cease to amaze me.

Thanks for the pleasure of reviewing.

quality as always jon

keep up the good work

Posted by RickyM on Jan-02-2006 16:48:

hey Static bleu

I love those percs at the start of the track, very groovy. It really starts to sound very similar to Icone here, especially that bass and the plucks....but then you bring it to your own style, which is cool indeed. Production is so clear and the bass is excellent and driving. The melody isn't that memorable to me, but I don't care, the overall vibe makes up for it. Excellent song, frenchie.

Thank you guys

Posted by Aquarian on Jan-02-2006 16:56:

Everything was done very well. Technical aspect and all. Great sounds, effects, etcetera. But overall I felt it was too generic, and there wasn't anything special in terms of ideas and melodies.

Posted by djlogik on Jan-02-2006 18:02:

I expected there to be some really huge breakdown, but the track was awesome nonetheless. I really like your style keep up the good work.

listening

nice sounding kick.. nice perc layers.. nice hat and clap introduction, as i am listening i am noticing some veeery nice mixing, and u threw in some bongos, awesome..

break:

full sounding strings, sound great, after the break, the whole thing goes for a 16 bars too long or something..

i could easily see this signed to Anjunabeats, u take it the way you want..

overall nice production, but doesnt catch me melodic wise..

Posted by Jay M on Jan-02-2006 20:21:

This sounds very good Jon. Reminds me a lot of Icone / Wim Van Gelder stuff. This contains more variety in sounds I think. Pluck is overused off course and pads arent really that warm because of the high end. Melodywise it's generic indeed, but it's well produced.

I'll be burning this for usage in sets

Thanks for the share!
-Jay

thanks to all of you !

Posted by alexpea on Jan-03-2006 12:59:

Awesome soundquality. Everything is crisp and clean. It's a nice trancer, but imo the melodies aren't as good as I was hoping for.. But omg I love the way you built the track Fxs, sweeping pads, lovely percs and awesome break!

Posted by staticblue on Jan-03-2006 13:14:

thanks alex glad you like it !

Posted by dj_kenji on Jan-03-2006 15:57:

Amazing track! You are top class trance producer!
I like it very much and look forward to your development in 2006

Posted by staticblue on Jan-03-2006 16:16:

hi kenji, thanks for the kind words

Posted by kopi_luwak on Jan-03-2006 16:55:

Nice, thanks for the download, I concur a bit with Jay and Alex, but the track itself it's pretty cool .
Kopi =o.

Posted by Xtatica on Jan-03-2006 17:12:

The percussion at the beginning is awsome the arpegio was spot on - first time I have listened to your work dude and I was impressed at the control and the production of the track. Reminded me of Hugh Tolland's earlier work....well done
