Work in progress - Classic Trance?.......Now a 'final' render!

This is something I started at the weekend and it's in a fairly unfinished state but most of the elements are in place. The hats are a bit crunchy because the master is a bit hot I think.

Any feedback welcome

Make me bleed, I can take it.

Nice mix, everything sits well, not over compressed and some head room left, nice use of depth in the mix.... the only thing when it finished it felt like was about to go into the next gear and add the melodic part? was that the whole track?

Thomas Penton for the kick and bass drop?

You're spot on, it IS about to go into the next gear after perhaps another drop or sliced up mini break. After much tinkering i've still not found the right sound though. I did experiment with some guitar solo stuff believe it or not but it just wouldn't sit right.

I'll get there though, and thanks for the feedback

I have no idea who Thomas Penton is (edit - no....Vengeance)


I have to admit the track was HEAVILY influenced my one of Alan Marceros.

Pretty good stuff. The mix is nice, as Peter said. It sounds very clean. Would like to hear a longer version of this!

Cheers

I'm 100% gonna finish this as soon as possible. I'm thinking it's probably gonna end up being about 8-9 minutes long

I like what you've got so far, Geoff, but I hope that when you extend it, you can bring in some more melodic elements; otherwise, I could see it getting a little monotonous. The mix does sound clean as always! Can't wait to hear the final version!

Thanks Dave,

This track started out life as a complete experiment tbh. Firstly trying to emulate some of the things that I heard in an Alan Mercaro track and secondly I was using it to chop up some female vocals for a remix I was doing, I think you know the ones!

Introducing a melodic element is essential though.

Thanks for the feedback

This is first track in a few days that has a lot of aggression and dynamics in it. Really short for me to connect to it but the first 2 min are really good.

+1 from me.

I know that you would like to extend this track to about 8 min, and to keep this tension I would modulate your temp and run some good sounding FX to transition between different part of this song.

Damned, get me another beer man, I started to feel it.

I'm well and truly fired up now.

Thanks for the great feedback

Hi Geoff,

This time, what can I say man, you score big time. Quality of your song is really good and sounded really professional. Everything felt right, not over compress, nice melody, grate usage of space, excellent constructed transitions � high mark for all of that man.

Looks like you time is coming man. Good luck in your professional career.

Thanks.....AGAIN!


I've got a few additions to make in the main break for this one. I did have a pal of mine doing some acoustic guitar parts for it but they're not sitting right just yet.

Once again i'd like to point out that this track was very heavily influenced by one of Alan Marceros tunes. Just incase any distant bells are ringing when you listen to it

Hmmm, i've had a few comments on the lack of melody but I kind of went deliberately monotone just to experiment with some techniques.

The next track i'm working on has melody in excess though! Just need to find a good vocalist now

everything sounds pretty clean nice job. maybe you could try one of those LFO to pitch long saw pads, to introduce.
