We recently completed a melodic trance tune called Rain Drops it can be heard at www.myspace.com/thecounterfeiterss

Feel free to listen to some of our other music as well.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Very well put together track. A good sign is that the piano riff actually stayed in my head after having listened to it.
The track isn't bringing anything new or fresh to the scene, but then it doesn't have to.

Good trance, I would consider playing this out for sure.

Cheers
Nem

Great track. Very catchy melody. Don't know what the old / new talk is about. It sounds good so what difference does it make?

I think you could add some more suspense if you add some subtle progressive drum rolls here & there so it sounds like its about to break into something but doesn't quite.

WHen the piano builds up and the high octave notes come in change the delay settings. The delay could work better.
Waiting till 2:41 for the kick is nice. But than some parts of the higher octave piano melody could pull you in better. You have the high notes at 3:10 than kill it at 3:13 and that part doesn't work. I personally would keep it high for another bar after 3:13. It just drops down from 3:13 to 3:16 and for some reason I think it'd sound better carrying higher notes like after 3:10.

It does sound really good though I like. I love trancey leads but nothing sounds as pure as a good piano melody.

Thank you for the compliments.
I've been looking for a label to carry me but haven't had much luck.
