Sander van Doorn - Grasshopper
wow, this is a good one.
sander trying to work up all the minimal- and tech-impressions which the trance scene got in 2006 (*cough* domino and so on), combined with a little bit of well-known svd sounds.. works really fine.
he is regularly coming up with really new stuff. great producer, great track 
its a good one 
SVD does minimal techno. Pure unadulterated shite. If this is the way he is going production wise and maybe djing wuse then hes going even further down my estimations. Was amazing 2 years ago but has steadly went down from those dizzy heights

Whats this new garbage they call music? SVD sucking for even more! I mean his tech tunes are bad why go even worse? Stay with trance idiot! 
I'm not digging this tune too much either. Maybe I just need to let it sink in to me.
Nothing special but it's still OK.
please wait for the other mix.. it;s more melodic
my first thought at hearing this was "James Holden wannabe". It's a good track and I really like it. Simple but like everything SVD does, sounds very crisp and well produced

It was bound to happen, its rather tripe, not very well made and just has some very simple minimal techno elements. but if sander keeps at it, he could probably make something decent...
easily forgettable track. i feel SvD did much better doing what he was doing before, even if it eventually became formulaic.
It works better when it's in the middle of a bangin' set, such as his Identity Mix November 2006.
Weakest tune I've heard from him IMO.
I'm not a big SVD fan - I'm not a fan at all actually, but I gave this one a shot, just as I have all his other productions, and was perhaps more disappointed than I've ever been by any of his tunes.
It sounded like it had some potential, the build between 2 and 3 minutes was nice, but when it just drops out like it does around 3:00 there's just a feeling of no real payoff what-so-ever. Basically for all the good elements of the track, the sequencing and complete lack of direction left me irritated that I'd wasted the 6 or so minutes it took to get through the 3 builds that went no where.
The "James Holden Wannabe" comment seems apt.

This is a good start if this is the direction he wants to take, but when you compare it to people who have created this kind of music for a long time, it's not even in the same league. Its an okay tune, I don't think it sucks. But it is definitely a tune I would quickly pass knowing there is much more better while browsing for music.
This crap is meh. I hate it.
