Hey People,

Just finished my creative streak of producing with this new piece called Elevate. I think this will be my last track for the next month or so I was inspired by the style of ASOT (Armin Van Buuren), tracks such as Spiral by Robert Nickson.

I think it turned out quite well, lots of new fx and sounds and pretty uplifting stuff. Looking forward to the feedback of you guys, you know I appreciate it a lot

Anyways the track (as always only the first seven minutes) can be heard at :

Cheers everyone!

Sounds Great! Cant really point out any flaws...
Reminds me of Comicsman.

Maybe just a little more variation in the melodic part... seems to be hearing only the same sequence everytime...

Looking forward to hear more new stuff from ya...

Thanks Ac Dc (your name sounds as if you are listening to the wrong kind of music haha). Glad you really like the track.

Keep them coming people

plus
nice effects
the break is good
the leadsound itself is pretty nice

minus
melodies are introduced to fast
i dont like the melody, too happy for my tastes
generic sound

overall
first of all, i have to say im not a fan of ASOT, and especially Spiral, as i can hear the similarities pretty well.. after the break when u introduce the kick again, i think u should have introduced the percussions as well.. and i feel the bass is a bit muddy as its hard to catch the tone of it.. and the melody is going on for a bit long.. and i feel the percussions gets a bit drowned..

6/10

im not being very positive, but its what i think

keep it going

Hey Nomen

Nice uplifting trancer - hits all the spots - couple of years ago I would've really liked this - but I'm not really into this type of trance. But production is very nice - and i do quite like the melody

Beautiful melodies and good bass/percussion. I really like it! Would it be okay if I mix this track, please? Thanks for posting.

Desty Nova : thanks mate! appreciate it, glad you like the track. Will wait a bit for more feedback before I decide if I will send out this track to dj's here on TA but if I do you will get it for sure.

Riialto : Of course one of the few exclusive Dj's who already have the track. Thanks for your feedback and thanks for promoting me as well

Ricky M : cheers mate! Nice to read your review

Subtle : Thanks as well, too bad you do not like Robert Nickson, he surely makes nice uplifting stuff. And for me it was time to make something more uplifting again after All hope is gone and Colour of Autumn Thanks for your comments though! Really appreciate it!

Good tune again dude... again, you've used that quite sharp kinda detuned lead sound which I'm not really into... but it sounds a lot better after the break

Rest of the production is the best you've done yet I think, the melody itself is pretty good although nothing that would really stand out to me.

You've used a quite thin filter sweep sound quite a few times in this and used similar things in your previous tracks... I've gotta say I don't really like them, they sound far too weak on their own.

But yeah other than that it's all good.

5.5/10 just nudging a 6 on the scale, possibly up to 6.5 but I'm not sure... I think you've put yourself in a difficult position with the genre you produce as everything of a similar nature that gets released is just SO well produced these days. It might help if the whole thing was mastered up a bit better, the whole mix could do with a kinda fuller bottom end.

(Scale: 0 = don't bother, 1-3 = needs work, 4-5 = nearly there, 6-8 = releasable, 9-10 = outstanding)

Stu what would I do without you , you are my motivation to get better and better

Seriously, glad you think this is my best track so far. I agree that tracks of similar nature are produced very well although I also feel that melodywise and energywise this track can hold up with a lot of released tracks. Depth is important but not the main thing. And the mastering of many released tracks are not special so I take my chances

Cheers mate!

Very percussive, and well-driven bassline may be it's strongs points. Excellent melody. Catchy tune. The only flaw I can detect is the introduction of the melody too ealy. If a build up we're given, it would add a sense of progression and uplifting build ups.
Strings sound absolutely breathtaking.

Mind if I put this on my mp3 player?

Very Nice track you got here dude. It has alot of potential. I must say almost everything is good, except for the introduction of the melody like most people have said. Its early. Like Kris said, you got to make a build up to create a lil bit more energy,it adds some progression and to introduce the melody better, but other than that you are good.

Kris, you disappoint me. You will have to work harder now if you want to be better than Nomen (Darth Vader Voice)

LOL j/k.
