Very nice epic trancer. Full of energy and excellent melodic synths, not overdone build-up/up-lift.And I loved the trance break beats thrown in right before break-down Excellent. Better keep my glowstix close to me, lol!!! Let me know when it gets pressed on vinyl, would definately like to have a record like this in my bag. Thanks... Daniel...

It sounds ok to me, but not really your best I think... The synth sounds are ok, but try some different sounding synths too, most of them have nearly the same sound to them. The buildup melody reappears too often I think, it became kind of monotonous after a while. Although not being bad at all, just a bit overused maybe.

Take care

From the technical and aesthetic point of view it's excellent.

But the melody needs some work.
For some reason it lacks a "resolution", if you know what I mean.
If you could resolve it to the main chord somehow, that would provide some aesthetic "closure"
hard to explain

I agree with Lightworks, the synth-pattern you have is repeated too often. You can fix that by introducing a completely different synth sound, with a different pattern.

Overall, good work though.

sounds great, but i'm with lightworks on the melodie

Very solid production, excellent synth work!

My only criticism is the main melody, which is slightly repetitive and could be improved.

Good stuff!

Posted by Mr.Mystery on Mar-15-2003 18:51:

Thanks for listening, people.

So you think the main melody should have more variation or should I put in a new secondary synth altogether?
Because in the second part there actually are two additional synths - the other may have gotten too silent so it might not be that clear...

Okay... to be honest, I have no idea what you mean here... lol

I would use the same melody, but a different pattern to play it as a main melody. The building up is nice enough, but it's best to make another melody for after the climax I think, not just the same one over again
But who am I to criticise, still it's your ideas mate

Cheers,
Wim

The reason I was asking was that I was actually thinking of the very same thing myself, but then I decided to go with the current version instead...

yeah i agree maybe and adding a second synth after the build-up would be a great idea and a lot of energy to it because it kinda sounds like it's missing something but i love the track overall love the little breakbeat.
