New Tune from Ryan Westman!

Hey,

This track is my take on the whole progressive house/trance scene. I take quite a few elements from house, trance - and fuse them with this progressive style.

I think alot of you will like this track, even though it doesn't deliver the uplifting trance goods that so many of us are used to getting high off of.

Dare I say - an ear to the future? :-)

Anyways - hit me back with any feedback - I'd be interested in hearing what your impression on this tune is, especially considering the fact that it's pushing the pretty rigid contraints of what we call "Trance Music" (Trying to not have this whole scene pigeonhole into itself, like some other *ahem* genres)

Oh yah - if you were one of the first downloaders of this track - I posted a version without the vocal sample by accident - as of 18:00CST though - I got the right version up there!

See ya'

links not working

the link's not working... i think you should leave out the spaces on the links and replace them with '20%' instead. Links don't work with spaces

Visited your homepage to see if the correct link was there, but you had the same problem over there hehe

I'm gonna try getting it with the '20%' inserted
cheers!

Great, great track! Really beautiful and relaxing
I love the sounds, especially that first synth that comes in at 0:28
There is some distortion when the bassline comes in on top of the kick, but no big deal

Keep up the great work!
I think I'm gonna try making a progressive track soon

Your Feedback

Thanks for the feedback - regarding distortion - I don't doubt it - my listening room is *less* then adequate. :-)

Glad to see ppl here are liking things outside of uplifting trance though. :-) It frightens me when things don't seem to be moving forward.

It helps also to work with different forms of music that you like from jazz, to punk, to improv shows. It helps alot with your creativity - and allows you to always sound "different" rather then just copying that last progressive stomper. ;-)

I will post more tracks later on - I am trying to figure out which tunes I want to bother sending off to distributors - cause right now I feel many of the tracks are just lacking that "edge" - of pro-quality that they need to succeed as a 12". I don't have the money to just blindly press things, so hoping to taste test the formula, in part - through here. So I really appreciate really anal/constructive reviews.

See ya'
